Until the end of his term, Costa “will drink the gall he created”

SUBWAYAnuela Ferreira Leite analyzed, on the night of this Thursday, in the usual space for comments on the TVI24 antenna, the extension of the moratoriums for another six months, which was generally approved in the Assembly of the Republic. For the former president, we are facing a “prediction situation.”

“There were many criticisms of the austerity of the previous government and now I will say that we are facing a question of strength in terms of calamity that does not make sense. There is the problem of financial stability, everyone knows it, but that is why the PSD says that supports the moratoriums until the end of the State of Emergency ”, he pointed out.

Prime Minister António Costa announced on Wednesday that he will send to the Constitutional Court an urgent request for successive inspection of the three laws of Parliament that increase social support in the context of the social and economic crisis caused by the covidity pandemic. 19. On the subject, Manuela Ferreira Leite, not being a constitutionalist, admits that she has “difficulty in carrying out a legal analysis.

From a political point of view, the commentator defends that “the prime minister is the one who knows whether, being a minority government, he is willing to spend the rest of his term in discussion with everyone.” In the situation in which António Costa finds himself, the former minister believes, “there is only one thing to do and that is to dialogue with the parties.”

In the opinion of Manuela Ferreira Leite, in order to accommodate social support spending, “an amending budget could be made, it was brought to the Assembly, it was an afternoon and the matter was ordered. It is evident that with the amending budget one could even do some arrangements in terms of not changing global spending. It is not possible to govern in the minority without talking to any party and being truly against the opinion of the President of the Republic. “

The economist also foreshadows a difficult future for António Costa at the helm of governance. “The prime minister at this time, and probably until the end of his term, will be drinking the gall that he created himself. And the gall that he himself created was to put himself at first in the hands of the Communist Party and the Bloc all of a sudden they got angry and he believes that he continues to govern even without their support, “he said, recalling that Costa” left the PSD aside even though he knew there was nothing safe on the left. “
