A new law banning Hungary's Pride parade comes into effect on April 15. The government of Viktor Orban said its aim is to protect children from being exposed to messages that "conflict with traditional family values." The move has already led to several protests in the country's capital in recent weeks. Orban's critics say the ban is about much more than just cancelling the Budapest parade. The World's Europe correspondent Orla Barry reports.
