Paulo Raimundo: "For others to grow, it is better to grow Libre"

Público7 September 2026 at 21:00

Paulo Raimundo, leader of the PCP, stated that "for others to grow, it is better to grow Libre", in a declaration that comes in the context of alliances or comparisons between parties on the left in Portugal.

The communist leader said he was not disappointed with António José Seguro, explaining that his expectation regarding the politician was not high, which would have minimized any potential disappointment.

Raimundo also considered that the Chega party functions as "the tin opener of politics" of Luís Montenegro, suggesting that Chega serves the strategic interests of the PSD leader.

On another note, the PCP leader revealed that his boss gave him a salary increase above inflation, a statement that comes in the context of debates about income and working conditions.

Government says it did not receive alerts to stop digital marking of exams

The Ministry of Education guarantees that it did not receive technical alerts recommending stopping the digital marking of national exams in 2026, despite problems identified in the first implementation phase, such as file integrity failures, incorrect sheet associations and parameterization errors affecting more than 21,000 grades. The Government acknowledges that the constraints generated anxiety among students and families, but emphasizes that the second phase proceeded without significant problems, with the number of error reports dropping from 90,479 to 5,110. Following questions raised by the PS (Socialist Party), which threatened to proceed with a parliamentary inquiry committee, the Executive requested an independent and comprehensive evaluation of the external assessment model from the National Education Council, whose final report should be delivered by December 31, 2026.
