"Two years later, people are already starting to think they should be feeling something positive from AD's governance"

CNN Portugal7 September 2026 at 12:35

CNN Portugal commentator Margarida Davim analyses the political turbulence that has marked the current legislature, during Prime Minister Luís Montenegro's term. AD's (Aliança Democrática) governance has faced challenges and political instability since the start of the term. Two years into the governing period, society is beginning to have expectations that positive results from government management should already be felt. This analysis comes in the context of a period in which public perception of the government's effectiveness is evolving, with citizens pressing for concrete evidence of the coalition's governance benefits.
