Protest in Espinho near Montenegro's home against fuel prices

SAPO Notícias12 September 2026 at 17:27

Around 80 protesters marched from Santa Maria da Feira to Prime Minister Montenegro's residence in Espinho to protest against fuel prices.

The participants demanded concrete measures from the Government to stop the increase in energy and fuel costs.

The protest organizers threatened to carry out new actions if the executive does not present solutions for the cost of living.

The protest took place near Montenegro's home, marking an action of proximity to the Prime Minister.

Why this matters

Readers in the Northern region are directly affected by fuel costs, which impact the daily lives of families and businesses. The proximity of the protest to the Prime Minister's home highlights the growing pressure on the executive to act, and the promises of new actions indicate that the protest may only be the beginning of a broader mobilization.

Scrutiny Needed!

A new private Family Health Unit opened in Torres Vedras, concessioned by the State, serving 5,463 users without a family doctor, while 19 similar units are in the process of opening, five in the Algarve. The article questions the transfer of responsibilities from the NHS to private operators, suggesting that the Ministry of Health was unable or unwilling to hire available doctors. It also mentions rumors, denied by the Minister, about the handover of ULS Algarve to the Union of Misericórdias, and warns of a "profound reformulation" of the NHS without the necessary democratic scrutiny, recalling that PSD voted against the creation of the service in 1979 and that a 1982 decree-law on the NHS was declared unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court.
