Feints and Little Feints Hoping for a Shot

The article comments on a motion of censure that was under discussion. The author harshly criticizes the position of those who should have clearly rejected such a motion, emphasizing that this refusal would be a duty for those who have the obligation to defend institutions, the law, and decency.

The Socialist Party (PS) is specifically mentioned as having adopted an abstention position regarding this motion of censure, which the author states they do not understand.

The article's title, "Fintas e fintinhas a ver se há um remate," suggests a criticism of what the author perceives as political maneuvers, using a sports metaphor to describe what they consider to be evasive or opportunistic political positions.

The author also states they do not understand the positions of other parties beyond the PS, suggesting a broader dissatisfaction with the way different political forces responded to this motion of censure.
