CGPT-IN’s National Demonstration against the Labour Package

Thousands of workers take to the streets against the Labour Package

17 April 2026

A flood of people filled the streets of Lisbon today, from Saldanha to the Assembly of the Republic, in a powerful show of strength by those who work and will not accept setbacks. Whilst they gather in offices to hammer out the details of further exploitation, the workers, called by the CGTP-IN, take to the streets to say, “enough is enough”. Enough of poverty wages. Enough of job precariousness. Enough of measures such as the “hour bank” that steal time and rights.

On the elections in Hungary

14 April 2026

The result of the Hungarian elections is marked by the defeat of Fidesz – the political force that has ruled the country for the past 16 years – and by the victory of Tisza – the party led by Péter Magyar, who until recently was a member of the party led by Viktor Orbán –, now with only right-wing and far-right forces represented in Parliament, which suggests the continuation of policies contrary to the interests of the workers and the Hungarian people.

PCP condemns Israel’s brutal aggression against Lebanon

10 April 2026

The PCP strongly condemns Israel’s barbaric bombings on Lebanon, which have caused hundreds of deaths and over a thousand injuries. This crime committed by Israel can only be seen as an attempt to undermine the announced ceasefire agreement and the negotiation process aimed at putting an end to the aggression unleashed by the US and Israel against Iran and other countries in the Middle East. Israel´s Zionist regime is thus reacting, once again, by resorting to the most brutal violence against the populations.

Those who support war are also responsible for the sharp and rapid rise in the cost of living

8 April 2026

However much propaganda, deceit and announcements there may be, the truth is that Portugal is no better off and life for the majority is worse. Rising prices and the cost of living, low wages and pensions, the deterioration of public services, and difficult lives in stark contrast to the record profits of economic groups and multinationals – this is the real Country.

The Constitution is not the past, it is the affirmation of rights for the future

27 March 2026

The Constitution of the Portuguese Republic, which Álvaro Cunhal, upon its approval, affirmed to be the “testimony of history,” the “faithful portrait of the Revolution,” was an important victory for our people, for the democratic forces and the military of April, enshrining in fundamental law the achievements and values ​​of the April 25th. Revolution, which are still deeply felt today.

A decent life is a right, and the youth are fighting for it.

26 March 2026

Today, as yesterday, the youth take the destiny of their lives into their own hands, they do not conform, nor do they resign themselves, and with the irreverence and creativity that characterises the youth, they fight.

The Government is more interested in protecting profits than protecting people's lives.

26 March 2026

In a Country where propaganda clashes with the real difficulties of life of the majority, where the cost of living is rising and some are obtaining record profits, where wages and pensions are being stretched to make ends meet, where public services are being dismantled, at the outset with the National Health Service (NHS), where access to housing is denied and the present and future of new generations are being mortgaged, it is this Country that PSD, CDS, Chega, and Iniciativa Liberal are further submitting to the US and Israel and dragging Portugal into the war against Iran.

On the conclusions of the European Council meeting of March 19 - Complicity with the military aggression against Iran, inaction in the face of rising prices and cost of living, favouring the interests of multinational corporations

24 March 2026

The conclusions of the European Council meeting of March 19 reveal, once again, the profound contradiction between the proclaimed discourse and the effective practice of the European Union (EU), its alignment and complicity with the US, its disregard for the deteriorating living conditions of workers and peoples, and its policy choices in favour of the interests of economic and financial groups and multinational corporations.
