Luis Montenegro speaks to journalists after the confidence motion debate
15 days, then 30, then 60 and, in the end, a 10 -day difference prevented understanding. PSD and PS to regret the price of a rug.
It was a unique afternoon in the history of politics in Portugal: the confidence motion presented by the prime minister was really spoiled.
The government fell but, before, there were many to count, between requests for suspension of the debate and the issue of Duration of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry That the PS wanted to make Luís Montenegro because of its Spinumviva family business.
Ricardo Araújo Pereira feels Mayor of Marrakech When you talk about this subject: “I remembered a lot of Morocco, seeing ps and psd on the duration of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry ”.
He even believed in an understanding: “I know our country can be ridiculous but not so ridiculous: we cannot go to the third elections in three years. Portugal always surprises ”.
The commentator explained why he was not believing what was happening in that debate.
It would have understood whether the government had said that making a parliamentary commission of inquiry into the prime minister “makes any stable governance unfeasible-because the prime minister cannot be investigated while he is governor.” I would understand the stance of “there is no parliamentary commission of inquiry”.
But that’s not what the PSD said. Admitted the commission but lasting only 15 days. But the PS said, “No, 15 days can not be. Just notifying people takes 10 days. ” Then the PSD tried 30, then 60 days: “Can it be 60? I give him one, I give him two… ”, mocked Ricardo.
And there was more, after the debate: Luís Montenegro said the final PSD proposal was “almost 80 days”; Later Minister Castro Almeida confirmed the 80 -day proposal.
“The PS wanted 90. So, We go to elections because of 10 days“Summed Ricardo Araújo Pereira. As if it were to regret the price of a Moroccan rug.
