Costa showed that the ball is in his court. Above all, it became clear that the arithmetic majority of the right in the polls does not correspond to a political solution. He showed that he is not willing to give in to a scenario of cohabitation with Marcelo, in which he wants to place himself above the Government’s policies. The messages were evident, marking a new era in the relationship between the two, after the episode of the ‘poster law’, in terms of housing. Costa left reinforced and in this political context it becomes more and more important to look at the PSD.
Montenegro is penalized for not being in Parliament and this has happened again. The parliamentary group did not fight to the height of Costa. Worse: apparently it was not even able to resolve the suspension of Pinto Moreira’s mandate, investigated in ‘Operation Vortex’. He had announced the suspension but, until yesterday, it had not happened. Pinching, obviously, the authority of the leader.
From Costa to Montenegro, there is, after all, an immensity of doubts about the leader of the PSD.
