The precautionary measure against the celebration of the Festa do Avante, on September 4, 5 and 6, is based on the defense of the right to health. This is what Carlos Valente’s lawyer explains, the businessman who this week filed the action that will be resolved by the Central Civil Court of Lisbon, guaranteeing, in a statement in response to questions from the Observer, that the measure does not have ” .any political purpose“. The businessman believes that maintaining the Party “would surely increase” contamination from the new coronavirus.
There is no political party motivation by the applicant, without any political activity or militancy. The defense of Fundamental Rights transcends the ideological matrix of parties “A”, “B” or “C”, the lawyer writes in a statement.
