Summary:

  • Pedro Nuno Santos connects Luís Montenegro to past austerity measures under Passos Coelho

  • PS appeals for strategic voting among left-wing voters in Braga

  • Rally highlights the ongoing political divide over austerity and economic policies

In Braga, candidates with graying hair are not the only throwback to the past. The PS party is also revisiting history, specifically the era of troika-imposed cuts. Pedro Nuno Santos once again ties Luís Montenegro to austerity measures, reminding the public that Montenegro was the parliamentary leader of the PSD when Passos Coelho implemented cuts that exceeded troika demands.

At a rally in Theatro Circo, the PS secretary-general, supported by former minister José António Vieira da Silva, made a renewed appeal for strategic voting among left-wing voters. This move is particularly significant in a district where the Bloco de Esquerda is represented by its founder, Francisco Louçã.
