PCP accuses PS and Chega of being united in "not touching" large economic groups

Correio da Manhã12 September 2026 at 23:07

The Portuguese Communist Party accused the Socialist Party and Chega of being united in a position of "not touching" large economic groups. The accusation was made by Paulo Raimundo, leader of PCP.

The communist leader gave as examples the positions of these parties regarding Galp's profits, large distribution and banking. These areas were pointed out as sectors where PCP considers that PS and Chega share a similar approach.

The accusation comes in the context of political divergences between parties on the taxation of the most profitable economic sectors. PCP advocates for tighter intervention on large economic groups.

Why this matters

This accusation from PCP to PS and Chega is relevant for readers because it exposes political tensions about how parties view the taxation of large economic groups. Readers who care about fiscal policies, fuel prices, groceries and banking services can better evaluate the positions of parties to the left and right of the Portuguese political spectrum. The accusation suggests that, despite apparent ideological differences, PS and Chega may have convergences in economic policies favorable to the private sector.

Micro-trials against Luís Neves

The article presents two opposing views on Luís Neves: either he is a dissembling delinquent who would rival iconic figures of organized crime like John Gotti and Lucky Luciano, or he is a martyr overwhelmed by court cases, metaphorically compared to Saint Sebastian pierced by arrows. The text, of an opinionated tone, seems to question the nature of the accusations and the number of proceedings weighing on this figure.
