Protestors outside state TV HQ in Budapest

Budapest protests
Hungarian police have used tear gas and water cannon to quell violent overnight protests in Budapest in which buildings were attacked and cars set alight.
The clashes happened following a rally demanding the resignation of PM Ferenc Gyurcsany, after it was revealed his government had lied during an election.
The worst fighting came when protesters stormed the state television building.
Dozens of people were hurt, including many police officers. The city is now said to be calm.
It was the first such unrest to take place in Hungary since the fall of communism and the establishment of democracy in the late 1980s.
