Bloco de Esquerda accused the Government of announcing "crumbs" that have already been "swallowed" by the new interest rate hike. The leftist coordinator questioned the effectiveness of government measures given the worsening economic conditions.
The party states that the cost of living has been fueled by government policies, expressing doubts about any eventual "popular base" of support for these measures.
This position comes in a context of interest rate increases that directly affect Portuguese families, especially those with home loans and other borrowings.
