"Chega did not bring any credibility that it can claim to others. It is the party that lowered the standards"

SIC Notícias3 September 2026 at 21:56

The program "Antes Pelo Contrário", moderated by Pedro Delgado Alves and José Eduardo Martins, analysed the motion of censure presented by Chega against the Government, related to the Luís Neves case. The discussion focused on the far-right party's position regarding the executive.

The episode also addressed the statements by António José Seguro, former leader of the Socialist Party, which were the subject of analysis on the program. Seguro has been a critical voice at various moments in Portuguese political life.

Pedro Frazão, a figure associated with Chega, was another featured topic, specifically the threats he directed at the Lusa News Agency. This episode generated controversy and raised questions about the relationship between the party and the media outlets.

In the final commentary, the irony was highlighted of Chega claiming credibility when, according to the analysis presented, they themselves are the party that "lowered the standards" of Portuguese politics.
