Hungary mothers in McDonald’s breast-feeding protest

Mothers in the Hungarian capital Budapest have occupied a McDonald's restaurant in protest against its move earlier this week to stop a woman from breast-feeding her baby.

Corruption.info reports citing the BBC.

Dozens of baby-carrying mothers entered a McDonald's near the Western Railway Station, sat down, bared their breasts and began feeding their babies.

The protest was against the treatment of the young mother on Wednesday.

A McDonald's statement blamed a security guard for the incident.

Women are welcome to breast-feed in McDonald's restaurants as part of the fast food chain's family-friendly policy, the statement said.
It added that an investigation into the incident had been launched.

The McDonald's restaurant where the incident happened is part of the Western Railway Station in Budapest, designed by the French architect Gustave Eiffel, which opened in 1877.
It has a reputation as one of the most beautiful McDonald's in the world.
