I think that initially [Luís Montenegro] lets himself be convinced by those who told him that the Portuguese like Luís Neves. It's good that he wakes up and stops listening to those voices that are really deceiving him.

Miguel Morgado, political commentator, criticized what he considers to be bad advice given to Luís Montenegro, leader of the Democratic Alliance, about the popularity of Luís Neves among the Portuguese. In his analysis, Morgado warned Montenegro of the need to "get wise to it" and stop listening to voices that, according to him, are deceiving him.

In his podcast "Torto e Direito" [Wrong and Right], Morgado also analysed the no-confidence motion submitted by the Chega party, in a context of internal political tension in Portugal.

The commentator also addressed the international political landscape, referring to the overwhelming victory of the AfD party in Germany and the longevity record achieved by Giorgia Meloni's government in Italy, drawing parallels with the Portuguese situation.

Finally, Morgado commented on the announcement that the Recovery and Resilience Plan has already been fully executed, although the specific details of this analysis are not provided in the available text.
