Jobbik Movement for a Better Hungary (Jobbik Magyarországért Mozgalom) is a far right political party. The predecessor of Jobbik was an organization appealing primarily to students, called Jobboldali Ifjúsági Közösség (Right-Wing Youth Association), which in 2003 was formed into a political party. While in 2006 Jobbik failed to get far as an ally of MIÉP, it became notably stronger afterwards. At the European Parliamentary elections in 2009, Jobbik secured 3 mandates having received over 427 000 votes (14.77 %), whereas in the general elections a year later in 2010, it passed the parliamentary threshold as the third most popular party, boasting more than 855 000 votes. More recently, Jobbik has managed to attract more supporters and increased its popularity rating above that seen in the April 2010 general elections. Currently more than 20 % of committed voters with party preferences would vote for Jobbik, compared to the 16.67 % of votes that the party received in the 2010 elections. With such numbers Jobbik is now one of the strongest far-right parties in Europe, even though it is far more radical than the other parties carrying the same political label in Western Europe. The party's more radical stance is reflected not only in its ideology, but was also evident  when it initiated and supported the formation of The Hungarian Guard (Magyar Gárda), currently a banned paramilitary organization. The Guard had been Jobbik’s most efficient instrument in mobilization and recruitment, and it was one of the main factors behind its success. The ideology embraced by Jobbik is essentially anti-liberal. It refutes the liberal interpretation of human rights and remains ethnocentric, irredentist, homophobic and anti-Semitic. In its economic policies the party opposes free-market liberalism and in terms of foreign policy it may be willing to relinquish a Western orientation and approach Eastern partners instead (notably Iran and Turkey).

Jobbik's 2014 platform rejects the European Union describing it “as a super-state over nations”; instead it promotes the concept of a “Europe of nations” that would eliminate dependence on the Euro-Atlantic alliance and replace it with an opening to the East, i.e., Russia. To implement its program, the party urges a review of the country's EU membership and its potential withdrawal from the organization, and with that the country would regain its sovereignty.

In the April 2014 general elections Hungary’s far right party, Jobbik again saw its support base soaring to around 1 million. The ruling Fidesz-KDNP claimed 45.04% of the popular vote, the left-wing party alliance called “Government Change” got 25.67%, while Jobbik’s 20.30% share earned it the third place. Although Jobbik officials and candidates seemed rather disappointed on election night for failing to win a single individual district or become the second strongest political force, in 2014 the party still accomplished to boost its support base from 855,436 (2010) to 1,020,476 voters.
