Restore Britain already exists. Two obvious weaknesses of Chega can be taken advantage of, according to André Azevedo Alves.
O He arrives It is considered the most right-wing party in Portugal, among the main parties. But a new big party even further to the right It’s not impossible.
Politics expert André Azevedo Alves begins by highlighting the case of United Kingdom. Last week, the party became official Restore Britain; was founded by Rupert Lowewho was an MP for Reform UK (Nigel Farage) – who now leads the polls.
Rupert Lowe no longer gets along with Farage. He created this party because “working within the system” didn’t work. He says he saw that the “system” doesn’t change with gradual reforms, he wants something more radical.
O party promises to go further than Reform UK concerning immigration, to deportations. Lowe thinks Farage is too moderate, that he has given in to the system.
The presentation of Restore Britain, as a national political party, has almost 40 million views on .
There may be other forces policies, on the right, which come together to Restore Britain.
Em Italy, Among other European countries, parties are also emerging that are even further to the right than parties already considered extreme right.
And now, Portugal
This trend could arrive in Portugal soon.
André Azevedo Alves, focuses on Portugal and in the case of He arrives.
Write what the André Ventura’s party has two obvious weaknesses which can be taken advantage of by a possible new party.
The first weakness is the “economic discourse increasingly erratic and social-populist” from Chega. There is no coherence, there is no well-defined line of ideas, of discourse. And in the medium or long term, credibility is lost.
The second weakness is again the inconsistencies not speech, more about immigration: both suggests broader concepts of remigration and adopts a more restrained stance focused on controlling immigration flows and combating situations of illegality. There may be political costs in this matter.
For now, In the short term, there does not appear to be a serious threat to the rightto Chega. ADN or the New Right are on another level, Ergue-te no longer exists. There is a lack of “critical mass” on the right, there is a lack of alternatives, there is a lack of leaders like Ventura.
However, concludes André Azevedo Alves, one of these parties could gain new momentum – or else, it could even a new political force appears to the right of Chega with the necessary strength, means and credibility.
And “everything can quickly change in the Portuguese party landscape”.
