Portugal election votes in the form of MPs

The Portuguese Prime Minister Louis Montenegro’s government is expected to have confidence in its third general election in its third general election on Tuesday.

Most of the MPs are expected to vote against him, who are hitting the minority government at their right center.

While the President of Portugal, Marcello Rebelo de Susa, is not obliged to dissolve the assembly, he has clarified that if the government loses votes on Tuesday, new elections are likely in May.

The motion of confidence was introduced by the government after the opposition socialists announced plans for parliamentary inquiry into the commercial behavior of Montenegro.

A company named Spinumviva, founded by Luis Montenegro, continued to receive large scale money from the customers in 2022, even after being elected president and leader of the opposition and leader of the opposition, and transferred ownership to his wife and two sons.

His wife was questioned by the opposition on the validity of transfer, given that the marriage is the one in which the property is jointly held; Since then the couple has made their sons the only owner.

But there are questions about the company’s income sources – including € 4,500 (£ 3,800) in a month from the hotel and casino group Solverde until a few days ago, whose gambling is for concession review – as well as other customers’ identity, which the Prime Minister has refused to reveal, and services provide spinumiviva.

A trained lawyer, the Prime Minister, says the firm provides consultation services related to the data disc wasteening laws, outsourcing work to external experts – given that his wife is a childminder, a son is a student and another is a new graduate.

The Bar Association is now considering whether the company is illegally offering services that only lawyers can only offer.

In recent times, Montenegro’s cabinet has approved a battery of expenses and other measures, which is seen as a bid to show that it is working hard for the country.

The situation can offer ideal terms for the third largest party, far-flung Chaga, to renew its attacks on corruption in politics.

Chaga also benefited from the resignation of Montenegro’s socialist erstwhile, Antonio Costa, who is now the President of the European Council. His name came under a criminal investigation in government contracts, although he was never made suspicious.

But in recent weeks, Chaga has been killed by his own scams, out of which three MPs have accused of crimes, alleging that Lisbon Airport has been accused of stealing a suitcase.

Until some time ago, Luis Montenegro’s alliance with the Orthodox People’s Party was still ahead of socialists in the opinion poll, winning the 2024 general election a year ago.

However, they are now leaving behind socialists under the leadership of Pedro Nuno Santos, who served as a minister under Antonio Costa.

No major side is eager to a snap election – not at least because they are afraid that voters will not be excited to choose a new government when the current has been in the office for less than a year – and the time is bad in geopolitical terms.

However, the set on an unwanted route for the Portugal May elections appears.

Not only the Prime Minister has chosen to appeal to voters instead of facing an inquiry, a stance has been described as a “coward” by the Leader of the Opposition.

But Pedro Nuno Santos has long pledged not to vote in favor of any government trust motion.
