Ventura announces joint list with the PSD for the Council of State

🏛️ Government ⚖️ Legal#psd+3 more

The leader of Chega revealed this Thursday, March 26, that an agreement has been reached with the PSD regarding elections for external bodies, announcing that the two parties will present a joint list of candidates for the Council of State. In a statement at the Assembly of the Republic, André Ventura explained that Chega will nominate one person for the Council of State, though he did not disclose whether he would remain in this advisory body to the President of the Republic himself. Ventura stated he has no indication yet as to whether the Socialist Party will join this joint list. Seguro has called the first Council of State meeting for April 17 to discuss Security and Defence. According to the d'Hondt method, there would be three members nominated by the PSD, one by Chega, and one by the PS, he admitted. 'In the broadest scenario, Chega will have two members, and the Socialist Party will never have two members on the Council of State,' he added. André Ventura reaffirmed that the PSD and Chega have reached an agreement regarding the names for the Constitutional Court. As he mentioned on Tuesday, this agreement provides for the PSD to nominate two names for the Constitutional Court and Chega one. Chega will nominate appellate judge Luís Brites Lameiras. 'The primary interlocutor for this negotiation was the PSD parliamentary leader,' but Ventura also spoke with the Prime Minister and PSD leader, Luís Montenegro. 'It is evident that there would be no agreement if the two leaders were not in agreement,' he noted. This Thursday morning, the PSD parliamentary leader stated that the party will continue 'in the privacy of negotiations' for external bodies and neither confirmed nor denied an agreement with Chega for the selection of judges for the Constitutional Court. The PSD has requested a new extension of the deadline for submitting lists for the Council of State, the Ombudsman, and the Constitutional Court.

To hell with the elections | The 'Cheguização' of the PSD continues, successfully

🏛️ Government ⚖️ Legal#psd+3 more

A series of recent cases demonstrates that the PSD is thinking more and more like Chega. Constitutional Court judges, the law on trans people, the censorship of deputy Eva Cruzeiro for stating evidence: all symptoms of the same process of 'Cheguização'. The PS will need firmness and nerves of steel.

The PSD has changed its political gender to marry Chega

🏛️ Government ⚖️ Legal#psd+3 more

With the country caught between a devastating storm and a war with economic impact, the right is amusing itself by reversing the gender identity law without listening to experts and focusing on the major issue of LGBT flags. As shown in the choice of Constitutional Court judges, the PSD is trying to break the three-bloc deadlock. And, as it fails in the National Health Service and housing and may lose the economic situation that protected it, it is likely that these joint diversionary manoeuvres with Chega will begin to multiply.
