"Luís Neves has no conditions to continue": André Ventura threatens Government with motion of censure

Notícias de Coimbra28 August 2026 at 16:55

The president of Chega, André Ventura, admitted this Friday, August 28, in Coimbra, that the party could present a motion of censure against the Government. During his statements, Ventura stated that "Luís Neves has no conditions to continue", referring to another political figure, although it is cut off in the text.

André Ventura threatened the executive with this motion of censure, showing Chega's intention to politically pressure the Government. The declaration was made publicly in the city of Coimbra, where Ventura was attending a political event.

The Chega party, led by Ventura, positions itself as an active opposition to the Government, using the threat of a motion of censure as a political instrument to demonstrate its position regarding the executive. This action is part of a broader strategy of political contestation by the party.
