JSD leader responds to Chega's threat to present motion of censure against the Government, calling Ventura a "false tough guy" and "political weathervane"

The JSD leader responded to André Ventura's threats, Chega's leader, calling him "false tough guy" and "political weathervane". The response comes after Ventura announced he will present a motion of censure against the Government on September 1st, if the Minister of Internal Administration remains in the executive. The exchange of words between the two political leaders marks another moment of tension in the Portuguese political scene. The arm-wrestling between JSD and Chega reflects the tensions between the parties to the right of the political spectrum in Portugal.
