The Social Democratic deputy Duarte Marques on Friday accused the Socialist Party (PS) of negotiating with Chega when it is “necessary”, despite saying that he would never reach agreements with André Ventura’s party and would point the finger at the Social Democratic Party (PSD ) by the agreement in the Azores.
In a Twitter post, the PSD deputy shared an image captured by the SIC cameras, where you can see the Secretary of State for Finance, António Mendonça Mendes, and the vice president of the PS parliamentary bench, João Paulo Correia, speaking with the only deputy and president of Chega, André Ventura, during the discussions on the State Budgets for 2021 (OE2021).
As a caption, the deputy wrote: “Do not negotiate with Chega. There cannot be any kind of agreement with Chega. Unless necessary ”. PSD leader Rui Rio reacted to the post with an emoji.

The episode occurred during one of the interruptions requested by the Government and the PS this Thursday, when the plenary session was preparing to vote on the proposal of the Left Bloc to stop the transfer of 476 million euros from the Resolution Fund to the Novo Banco. The measure had been approved the day before, but the PS decided to take the proposal back to the plenary session so that it could be voted on again.
After several twists and turns in the voting (with an emphasis on the votes of the Madeira deputies, who initially voted against, but later followed the voting discipline of the PSD and voted in favor), the new brake was finally approved. transfers to Novo Banco. , with votes in favor of PSD, Bloco de Esquerda, PCP, PEV, Chega and the unregistered deputy Joacine Katar Moreira.
The alleged “negotiations” of the PS and the Government with Chega, as suggested by Duarte Marques, ended up leading Chega to join the group of parties and deputies who voted in favor of the measure. However, initially, André Ventura had voted against the Left Bloc’s proposal to stop the transfer of 476 million from the Resolution Fund to Novo Banco. In a second ballot, he abstained and only then did he vote in favor.
The zinging-zags in Chega’s vote to stop a new injection of capital in Novo Banco were captured by the parliamentary blocker leader, Pedro Filipe Soares, who, on Twitter, accused André Ventura of “parliamentary opportunism” and of making the who do not have a backbone, do not want to confront the powers of the financial system and do not want to be left out of any photograph that seems desirable to them ”.
André Ventura made three times the number of those who do not have a backbone, do not want to face the powers of the financial system and do not want to be left out of any photograph that seems desirable
