Press review: Storms in January and February have pushed the food basket to a four‑year high, with prices rising consecutively since early 2026 as greenhouse destruction and higher transport costs bite, warns Deco Proteste. Jornal de Notícias and other outlets flag further deterioration in vegetable and fruit bills, while the state faces millions in costs to recover at‑risk companies. Coverage also notes a controversial overlap in business figures linked to a human‑trafficking case, a resigning INEM training director earning €5,700 while working remotely, and the ongoing hardship in Amor, Leiria, where residents describe daily struggle after the storms.
