Dr. Lajos Bokros is president of the advisory board of the Freedom and Reform Institute.

In 2011, Bokros broke ties with the party Hungarian Democratic Forum (MDF). Party representatives had accuses him of irresponsibility and lack of loyalty since the elections. They demanded that Bokros returned his mandate. Today, Bokros is an independent MEP. In April 2011 the Democratic Community of Welfare and Freedom (JESZ)legally succeeded the Hungarian Democratic Forum (MDF).In December 2011, the JESZ launched a civil law suit against Bokros demanding financial compensation. During that time, protests in front of his house in Budapest were organized.
