Madeira's Political Crisis
The Madeira Regional Assembly faced a significant setback as the 2025 Budget was rejected on Monday, with votes against coming from PS, Chega, JPP, IL, and PAN, leaving PSD and CDS-PP isolated in their support. This marks the first act of a political crisis that is expected to escalate next week with the approval of a motion of censure proposed by Chega, potentially leading to the fall of the Madeira government.
In light of this governability crisis, the region is already preparing for early elections, in which Miguel Albuquerque intends to participate. This development raises questions about the political stability of Madeira and the implications of frequent elections.
