Hungary protests spark opposition coalition - but will it last?

BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Week-long protests in Budapest have forged fragmented opposition parties into a rare coalition against Viktor Orban, drawing young Hungarians into the streets to demonstrate against what they see as his increasingly authoritarian rule.

Passage of two laws last week backed by the prime minister's Fidesz party angered a variety of domestic voter groups, galvanising the weak and divided opposition to act with a unity rarely seen in his eight years in power.
