Is the Blame on Everyone Except Luís Neves?

Observador2 September 2026 at 07:55

The article criticizes the posture of Minister Luís Neves, referring to the Secretary of State for the Budget, for avoiding assuming political responsibilities. According to the piece, the official frequently attacks the leader of the Chega party, André Ventura, and also journalists, constantly transferring blame to third parties.

The central criticism of the article is that the minister repeats that the blame is on "everyone, everyone, everyone," except himself. This narrative is presented as a strategy to avoid accountability for decisions made in the context of public finance management.

The article also references the growth of public expenditure, describing it as something that "grows on its own as if it were a plague," suggesting that the minister does not recognize his contribution to the increase in public spending.

The text appears as a political commentary that questions the transparency and accountability of the official, pointing to a pattern of behavior that consists of blaming others instead of assuming responsibility for budgetary policies.
