Even without new measures, the budget balance worsens by 4,800 million euros in 2027

Público1 September 2026 at 17:08

The budget balance worsens by 48,000 million euros by 2027, even without the implementation of new measures. MPs already have calculations that serve as a starting point for drafting the State Budget for 2027.

The Ministry of Finance admits spending almost 20,000 million euros more on pensions next year. This value represents a significant increase in pension-related expenditure.

The calculations prepared by MPs provide a basis for the upcoming budget negotiations. The situation demonstrates the growing pressures on public finances, particularly with regard to social security spending.

Jair Renan Asks for Votes for Esperidião Amin and Carlos Bolsonaro, but Leaves Michelle's Ally in SC Out of the Campaign Flyer

The campaign material attributed to Jair Renan Bolsonaro (PL-SC) asks for votes for Carlos Bolsonaro and Esperidião Amin for Senate, but excludes federal deputy Caroline de Toni, Michelle Bolsonaro's ally on the same ticket. The flyer also supports Jair Renan for federal deputy, Flavinho for president, Jorginho Mello for governor, and Camilo Martins for state deputy. Toni's exclusion occurs amid tensions in the Bolsonaro coalition in Santa Catarina, as Amin was passed over by Jorginho earlier this year to accommodate the ex-president's son.
