Although it identifies itself as "
third way", opposing the policies of both the
left-wing opposition and the governing
right-wing party
Fidesz, the party and its ideology has been variously described as
nationalist,
right-wing populist,
extremist, and
neo-fascist. The party has
anti-immigration, and
pro-Russian views, and it has been also accused of having
anti-Islamic, and
antisemitic views. The party holds
national conservative,
traditionalist,
Economy Our Homeland Movement positioned itself as
agrarianist. According to the party, Hungary should become economically independent, and to this end the party would create hundreds of small and large
food processing plants in the country and announce a new
land distribution program. With the distribution of land, they would like to favor young Hungarians in particular. They would re-establish the Hangya Szövetkezet (
Ant Cooperative), which existed in Hungary in the first half of the 20th century, whose task was to ensure that farmers achieved a good position in the market, allowing their interests to prevail. The movement holds
anti-communist views. The party demands the disclosure of agent lists, the accountability of party state leaders (for example,
MSZMP leaders,
KISZ secretaries,
Workers' Militia, and
ÁVH members) and their ban from public life, as well as the withdrawal of what they see as communist luxury pensions. They support the demolition of statues containing
communist symbols, such as the Soviet Heroic Monument on
Liberty Square.
Corruption To curb corruption, Our Homeland Movement would abolish immunity. They oppose joining the
European Public Prosecutor's Office, instead wishing to establish a Hungarian Anti-corruption Prosecutor's Office. The executive board of the organization would include prosecutors delegated by the government and the opposition, as well as non-parliamentary social organizations. They would support education of the
Hungarian diaspora in the Hungarian language from kindergarten to university, as well as the use of
Hungarian national symbols. The party wishes to establish the day of the signing of the
Second Vienna Award as a holiday, called the Day of Homecoming, to commemorate the territorial revisions recovered by regent
Miklós Horthy.
Social issues The party strongly opposes
LGBT rights. After the release of a children's book,
Meseország mindenkié, which features LGBT members and ethnic minorities as characters, Dúró referred to the book as "
homosexual propaganda" during a press conference and promptly ripped pages out of the book and then shredded them. The move caused significant controversy and garnered international attention. The party has called for a ban on
LGBT pride marches. Eventually, the Fidesz government banned pride marches in the country in 2024, resulting in the largest pride march in the country's history.
Environment In an interview with
Mandiner, Toroczkai described Our Homeland Movement as "a unique green party in Europe", and thus the party is sometimes referred to as supporting some form of
green conservatism. Toroczkai further said that "we are unwilling to accept that only anti-social and anti-human liberal parties can be green parties. We think that those who do not want to protect our environment, our forests, our beautiful
Great Plain,
Lake Balaton, our rivers cannot really love their homeland." The party also promoted
vaccine hesitancy, having launched a petition against the use of
COVID-19 vaccines on children aged 12–15. In 2024, they called on the government to explore the possibility of banning
MRNA vaccines, which they said are "responsible for many health problems and deaths". Previously, several politicians of the party falsely spread the claim that vaccines are "three times more deadly than the virus itself". They support withdrawal from the
World Health Organization (WHO).
Security The party supports the reintroduction of the
death penalty, and it also supports the reintroduction of
conscription. They support the re-establishment of the Hungarian Border Guard, the development of the
Hungarian national defence and military industry; however, they oppose the participation of Hungarian soldiers in international missions.
Foreign policy In
foreign policy, the party advocates closer ties with Turkey, the
Arab states of the Persian Gulf, the
BRICS countries, and
Palestine. During the
Russian invasion of Ukraine, the party referred to Ukraine as an "unfriendly country" and called on it to give up territory claimed by Russia "for the sake of peace". They did not support sanctions against Russia and voted against Finland's and Sweden's accession to
NATO. During a speech at the party's annual conference in Budapest on 27 January 2024, Toroczkai stated that the party would lay claim to the region of
Transcarpathia in Ukraine if the latter lost its statehood as a result of its war with Russia. Toroczkai had already stated in 2022, on the occasion of the
National Independence Day of
Poland on 11 November, that he wished for Hungary and Poland to share a border again, posting a photo taken after
Hungary's invasion of Transcarpathia in 1939 in which a Pole and a Hungarian shook hands at a border post. The party advocates neutrality in the
Israel-Palestine conflict and criticises the Fidesz government for its pro-Israel stance, with the party calling for an immediate ceasefire and two-state solution, condemning the death of civilians on both sides, and describing the
Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip as a "massacre". The party later invited the Ambassador of South Africa to Hungary to present its claim of Israeli genocide in Gaza at an event held at the Turkish Embassy, and advocated for designating Israeli settlers in the West Bank as terrorists. Our Homeland Movement would initiate a referendum on Hungary's withdrawal from the
European Union (EU). The party believes that Western European multinational companies take more profits out of the country than money comes in from the EU, Instead, it prefers nationalist nation-states, and as a result the party has been described as nationalist, as well as
hard Eurosceptic. In 2026, Toroczkai stated he considered it a life-threatening situation for Hungarians if
Maia Sandu, then
President of Moldova, voted in favor of
Moldova's unification with Romania. He asserted that
Romanian nationalists were already flooding the Internet and distributing maps featuring
Romania enlarged not only into
Moldova but also into Hungary up until the
Tisza river. According to Toroczkai, this could only be prevented with the help of Russia, as
Russian troops were present at the time in Moldova's
unrecognized breakaway region of
Transnistria.
Education In
education, the goal of Our Homeland Movement is to modernize the curriculum and reduce the amount of current curriculum. The party believes that IT, English, and physical education should be given priority. In addition, they consider the nationalist education of young Hungarians and their education for family life to be important. They support the creation of Christian and nationalist children's movements, such as
Levente. In the summer of 2023, they started such camps in several settlements of the country. The party supports the
segregation of Hungarian and Roma pupils in educational institutions; however, according to the party's official position, students would be segregated based on their behavior rather than their nationality. ==Organizational structure==
