What would happen if all the Hungarians living in London would move back to Hungary at once? We could create a new district in Budapest, called New London, and give the immigrant Hungarians a special tax allowance. Can you imagine the economic effect? 200,000 estimated Hungarians living in London. Mostly talented and educated people, certainly a lot of entrepreneurs. These are people who are ready to take on challenges, have broader perspectives, who want and are able to make changes in their lives. Can you imagine what that could bring to this country? There would certainly be a benefit to the National budget: currently roughly 1,5 million people pay an average amount of personal income tax, so it could mean an instant increase of 20% or more. Additionally, these returning Hungarians would transform their surroundings, create a better enviroment, maybe advocate for needed cultural change. I am sure this is not a completely new idea: India, or China may have felt the same at one point, but their workforce is growing as we speak; meanwhile in Hungary the active population is shrinking rapidly. So, government people, act on this, if you want to make a difference!
