Among the many choruses of “pimba” music that could integrate the soundtrack of the debate of the State of the Nation that marked the last plenary session of a parliamentary year that was nothing the same, the Assembly of the Republic saw the interpretation of only half of the most associated verses to Ruth Marlene's career. Instead of looking to the right and to the left, Prime Minister António Costa's “blinker” - in words and not in gestures, of course - went only to the second side of the Chamber, where the deputies are of the parties that supported its governance in the previous legislature, when calling for a “solid and lasting understanding” for the next three years.
“We need a framework for stability on the horizon of the legislature. The magnitude of the task at hand is not compatible with short-term agreements or short-sighted tactics based on electoral calculus exercises. The answer to this crisis is not austerity, ”said António Costa, making his intentions very clear:“ We need a solid and lasting understanding. If it was possible before, it will certainly be possible now; if it was useful before, it proves to be indispensable now, given the challenge of overcoming a pandemic crisis like the one that plagues us ”, stressed the Prime Minister, showing that there were, after all, others who saw signs of Central Bloc on the horizon.
Nor did the repair made by André Ventura to António Costa - suggesting that he was careful to reconcile the “request for dating the Bloco de Esquerda” with “the eyes he has done with the PSD”, “because love triangles don't usually work well” - he managed easing the tense atmosphere between the prime minister and the leader of the largest opposition party. The day after the officialization of the “central massif” - as the leader of the parliamentary group of the CDS-PP, Telmo Correia, called it - which changed the rules of procedure of the Assembly of the Republic, ending the fortnightly debates with the Prime Minister, words between Costa and Rio revealed that each of them thinks they deserve much better.
The social-democratic leader opened hostilities by calling into question the Executive's media bet on hydrogen, predicting that “new auctions for guaranteed rents will be held with the excuse that it is to produce hydrogen”, in a business that “interests EDP more. than the Portuguese ”. He received from the Prime Minister the reply that “the PSD is today the party of the old people of Restelo, who do not have the courage to transform the storm into hope”, while Catarina Martins broke the climate of what the only deputy of Chega called “Love triangle”, appealing to the irony to confess “almost moved by this huge opposition between PS and PSD in energy revenues”.
Rui Rio would come to strongly attack the executive management of António Costa in the “cases” of Novo Banco and TAP, calling them “monsters of gigantic dimensions”, and Catarina Martins wanted to know the whereabouts of Deloitte's audit to “dubious deals” ”Of the financial institution born from the collapse of Banco Espírito Santo, while António Costa assured him, about the availability for an agreement refused by the PS at the beginning of the legislature, that“ the circumstances have changed ”.
Catarina Martins would still be challenged with guarantees of “joint reflection for the necessary path in matters of housing and labor”, coming from the vice president of the PS bench, Marina Gonçalves - who was chief of staff to Pedro Nuno Santos when the Minister of Infrastructure he was Secretary of State for Parliamentary Affairs, which implied being the articulator of the "contraption". The socialist did not receive a response from the coordinator of the Bloco de Esquerda, but soon after she heard Jerónimo de Sousa call her “young deputy”, which, given the 32 years of being elected by Viana do Castelo, brings to mind the equally famous refrain “Continua- call me baby ”. What is certain is that the PCP's secretary general, who is also not effusive about socialist “advances”, advised the parliamentarian to tell his party to revoke the 180-day trial periods in employment contracts.
Before ending the debate, with interventions by the ministers of Health and the Presidency, Marta Temido and Mariana Vieira da Silva, António Costa was also entitled to praise and thanks from the social-democratic deputy Luís Leite Ramos due to the millions obtained by the prime minister in the European Council, namely in the Recovery Fund, with 300 million euros destined to the Algarve, as well as the award of the Formula 1 Grand Prix to the Algarve international race track, in Portimão. As ABBA would say, born in Sweden before the Scandinavian country was associated with any kind of frugality, “the winner takes it all”. The beloved month of August follows.
