Francisco Figueira accuses PS and PCP of "inconsequential rhetoric": "They didn't build a single kilometre on the IP2"

PSD deputy for Évora, Francisco Figueira, accused PS and PCP of "inconsequential rhetoric" after the opening of the Eastern Variant of Évora, an infrastructure of 12.8 kilometres representing an investment of 54.9 million euros. Figueira questioned why the IP2 section between São Manços and Estremoz was not completed during the eight years of socialist governance, contrasting the now-opened road with the criticisms and claims presented by the two parties. The social-democrat parliamentarian extended the criticism to the road connections of Beja and Portalegre, also associating the suspension of public investments with the consequences of the 2011 financial crisis.
