The PCP accused the PS and Chega of being united in a common understanding of "not touching" the large economic groups. The accusation was made by the general secretary of the Portuguese communist party.
The statement arose in the context of the exchanges of accusations between PS and Chega about the legislative initiatives of each party to reduce VAT on fuels. Both parties have presented proposals in this regard.
The timing of the criticism coincides with the current context of significant price increases, which has affected Portuguese consumers and generated political pressure for measures to support families.
