Capital calls the shots, your government puts it into practice, Chega and IL support and the PS lends you a hand to the end.

11 March 2025

There are no possible explanations you can give for the cases involving you that would justify the unjustifiable and the only thing you should have done was resign. But no, what you are doing is trying to evade the incompatibility between your private interests and the public duties you hold and take the Country to elections to try to shake off your responsibilities. You will not accept your mistake, and, in a headlong rush forward, you are tabling this victimisation motion.

New Public-Private Partnerships in healthcare, a new boost for the business of disease

7 March 2025

The PSD/CDS government's decision on new Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) is a new and serious step in the strategy to attack and destroy the NHS. An unacceptable decision that undermines the rights of the population in their access to healthcare and threatens the rights and working conditions of professionals. A decision that jeopardises the public interest and creates greater instability in the management of NHS units, in addition to the marked lack of human and financial resources and the wave of resignations and replacements of boards of directors.
