"Luís Neves costs us 800 million euros. This was the price to pay"

CNN Portugal9 September 2026 at 13:11

Bruno Batista, a CNN Portugal commentator, commented on the rejection of the motion of censure against the Government. In his analysis, the voting result strengthened the executive and represented a defeat for the Chega party.

Regarding Luís Neves, the commentator considered that he came out "neutral" from the situation. Batista described the minister's performance as having been "the best public performance of the minister since he has been in the spotlight."

The article's headline states that Luís Neves costs taxpayers 800 million euros, presenting this value as the price to pay resulting from this political situation.

A proposal from the Portuguese section of Transparency International, led by João Ribeiro, suggests the criminalisation of "cunha" (using connections) in Portugal, creating a new crime called "undue intermediation for access to public decision-making", punishable by up to three years in prison. The proposal, sent to parliamentary parties in July, aims to distinguish between legitimate contact with public officials and the use of personal, family or institutional relationships to obtain undue advantages in public decisions. The text warns that the measure cannot become a "forest of forms" and that the real challenge will be ensuring that citizens without contacts have the same possibilities as those who know decision-makers, defending that the revolution will be making cunha unnecessary.

The spokesperson for the Popular Parliamentary Group, Ester Muñoz, accused Sánchez of having "lied" for a month about the management of the migratory avalanche in the Spanish city, doing so "without shame, without blushing, with alarming coldness and lack of empathy".
