No, he hasn't been active here for a long time.  In part because the media
here is strongly Jewish-influenced, in part because he spouts a load of
utter crap, and in part because more recent collations of Holocaust
evidence - especially after the Berlin Wall fell - have made his position
increasingly ludicrous.  You can't get airtime for such nonsense.  I don't
think we have any specific Holocaust denial legislation, as the Germans do,
but we do have the generic race-hate legislation and that gets him every
time.

He's appeared on Hungarian television in the recent past, and he's also
embroiled in a trial in Israel.

IMO (having finally read Mein Kampf last year - tedious stuff) he's worse
than Hitler.  Fortunately not as charismatic.
