The chairman of the PSD defended on Saturday that the government’s ‘contraption’ policy did not end in 2019, but continues to this day and is bad ‘for people’s lives’.
In a large meeting of the National Strategic Council (CEN)which took place in Lisbon, Luís Montenegro appealed to the Portuguese to ‘not be intimidated’ by a ‘political narrative’ sold, even by the media, that the governance of the ‘apparatus’ ‘was a success’.
“No, the thing with the three parties or with the PS was bad for people’s lives”, he defended, since it was from this director that most The Portuguese had to turn to private companies for both health care and education.
In a room filled with hundreds of people discussing the PSD’s election manifesto, Montenegro argued that “the stubbornness, the ideological blockade” of recent years in areas such as health, education or housing was “clearly responsible for the loss of quality of life in fundamental areas of the life of the Portuguese”.
The PSD chairman also defended the claim that this administration was not limited to the 2015-2019 parliamentary term, during which the PS had signed parliamentary influence agreements with PCP, BE and the Greens.
“He continued out of conviction. The reign of this unit lasts until today. Has anyone noticed any difference after the device went from written paper to a device for conversation or something informal? No one noticed this difference, even with an absolute majority the PS always followed the basics of the contraception policy,” he said.
In his approximately half-hour speech, the PSD leader reiterated that the two most prominent candidates for the post of Secretary General of the PS, Pedro Nuno Santos and José Luís Carneiro, “are absolutely complicit in this journey”.
The chairman of the PSD was of the opinion that “we will never again want so many governments”. Portuguese used private healthcare systems and an equal number of secondary school students, 25%, also attended this sector”those who have the most money”.
“A new very great injustice in Portuguese society as a result of government policies,” he warned, noting that it was also during the Socialist government leadership that “the housing market was closed.”
The PSD president has also made a commitment: if he becomes Prime Minister after the early parliamentary elections on March 10, the new institutional symbol of the government – which caused controversy because the image was simplified, by removing the armillary sphere, the corners or the castles – will no longer be the referencewhich received a huge standing ovation from the audience.
‘That’s what makes the difference, us in our project we do not let our historical and identity references succumb for an idea to be more advanced, with us there is no such thing. Enough plastic policy,” he said.
