Don't listen to this episode if you're feeling down! It's not going to be easy listening as we delve into the results of Hungary and Serbia's elections on 3rd April. In both countries the authoritarian incumbents Viktor Orban and Aleksandar Vučić scored new victories, despite unprecedented opposition unity and an ongoing cost of living crisis. We explore how these 21st century European autocrats have remained so popular, how they have undermined democracy in their favour, and what the opposition did wrong. We also catch up briefly with Costa Rica's second round, which isn't a wonderful story either.
