Zap // Miguel A. Lopes / Estela Silva // Lusa
They do not agree at all, but the representative of the Left Block even cited Paulo Portas. An unexpected ghost sat at the table in the debate between Nuno Melo and Joana Mortágua: Salazar.
The confrontation of this Wednesday between the representatives of AD and the Left Bloc was a debate of secondary figures. Neither Luis Montenegro nor Mariana Mortágua gave their faces for their parties, having been replaced by Nuno Melo and Joana Mortágua.
The tone was cordial, with several mutually ignored “barbs”, but all the themes separated the two protagonists, starting with housing and, in concrete, the blockade proposal to put ceilings to the lace.
Joana Mortágua accused AD of implementing measures that increased the prices of the houses and argued that The country “can no longer stand the lengalenga of construction.”
“It is true that we need construction, but you see, there were 26 thousand, then 59 thousand, after 130 thousand, is the miracle of the roses of housing construction, and people cannot be waiting for a miracle,” he said, insisting that this measure works in the Netherlands.
For his part, Nuno Melo argued that “the origin of the problem” is the lack of housing supply and shot: “I know that you do not believe much in market dynamics but as there are no houses, this is a problem that has to be solved through construction.”
E The CDS leader even stuck the left block to Salazarist times. “The CEA now takes from the top hat this thing from the roof of lace as a great innovation, which is not. The measure is from 1948, was introduced by Professor Salazar, during the Estado Novo, we left a postwar inflationary outbreak and did not work in Portugal and did not work abroad,” he argued.
Nuno Melo also added that “Kadaster, who is the entity responsible for the registrations in Amsterdam, and the president of the Central Bank of the Netherlands say that the law has to be reversed because it has led to a growing withdrawal of investors in the lease market, housing park for lease and reducing the number of houses available for lease.”
“The example they give is false, but they sell it as true,” he accused.
In the answer, Joana Mortágua insisted that construction is necessary but it will take time.
“I don’t know if it’s a huge arrogance or whether it is a huge cowardice Given the interests behind real estate speculation to say that entire Europe is wrong. When the entire Europe was able to control, if it does not decrease, house prices, ”he said.
Montenegrization, venturization
In the midst of the themes for the country, there was still space for Nuno Melo to reiterate that “AD only rules the elections”, and leave a request to those who voted for: “The arrival voted all that was presented from the left, namely by the block”, and that “made 3 governments”, the Azores, Madeira, and the Republic. Asks this electorate to vote for ad.
When questioned by the moderator about “what is the degree of Be Montenegorization,” Mortágua had a ready answer: “Montenegrization is the constant throwing of ghosts,” he said, bringing back the table comparison with Salazar. Nuno Melo “Dreamed with Salazar”and that’s why it compares her, he fired.
The blocker also spoke of the “approach of AD to arrival”: a “venturization,” he says.
Health, Immigration, and… Paulo Portas
In health, the climate warmed, and Nuno Melo retreated to the magnitude to blame the BE for the worsening situation, by “throwing ideology over the problems”.
The centrist gave as an example the end of public-private partnerships and considered “Almost criminal” What was done at Braga Hospital. The Blocking Deputy replied that “ideological is end urgencies to deliver them to the private”.
The health theme was brought up the table by Joana Mortágua, who used the urgencies that will be closed this weekend and the situation as a throwing weapon. Nuno Melo recalled that the government was only 11 months old, and presented numbers that prove the “important things” in health made by AD.
When the debate came into the theme of immigration, Joana Mortágua accused the government of having “Made of Account” that limited the entry of immigrants in the country and then it came to Cite former CD-PP leader Paulo Portas.
“Workers will continue to enter. And you know why they will continue to enter? Who explains is Paulo Portas, when asks: Who will serve us at the table in restaurants? Who will make the hotel rooms? Who goes to the construction cranes? Who makes the ‘online’ purchases delivery? Portugal needs regulated immigration, regular immigration, ”he said.
The block holder rejected that immigrants will come “by order of entrepreneurs” and asked for respect for these citizens.
Nuno Melo – who has jedled that hearing the opponent quoting Paulo Portas means “not everything is lost” – accused the BE of “ideological demand” that condemns immigrants “to exploration and hunger”.
Na Defensethe minister rejected that Investment in this area is “a bogeyman” who will take funds from other sectors, and Joana Mortágua accused Melo of being “in denial” by supporting the NATO that “is controlled by Putin’s best ally”, Donald Trump.
