Power is exercised on loan from voters at the XXV Socialist Congress

In a room, in the Pavilhão Multiusos de Viseu, which has kept as many empty seats as occupied, Carlos César, in an attempt to reinforce the idea of ​​effort that the PS must make, considered: “we will only have this confidence if we prove in the present that we deserve it in the future. In democracy, power is exercised on loan from voters; we have to prove our political solvency once again, that is, that we are worthy of this credit.”

So that the Government is “as little bad as possible”

Carlos César, in a long phase of intervention dedicated to the Government, achieved victories announced by the Executive led by Luís Montenegro, “on the occasion of the last meeting of the European Council”, to socialist victories. With this objective, he cited the Prime Minister referring to “sustained economic growth and good budgetary performance in recent years”, which according to Carlos César were achieved “with the governments of the Socialist Party”.

“On different levels, but so relevant to all of us, this Government is slow to act or fails to act”, he accused, highlighting a reduction in “signs of a prominent focus on Education and professional qualification”.

“The public health service is increasingly dissatisfied with a mishmash of contradictory measures”, to the same extent that “Culture is an ignored area”, continued Carlos César, remembering that “young people do not recognize themselves in public policies” and “Justice does not rush or reform”.

“Companies or harmed citizens to whom the State promises compensation are waiting on endless waiting lists” and “taxation is a patchwork without a discernible direction other than that of the State coffers”, he described.

“Never in such a short time has so much been said and not fulfilled, and never in such a short time has so much been done with so many defects”he stated.

With the accusation that “the Government we have continues to devote more attention to opposing the Socialist Party and flirting with the extreme right than to resolving each and every one of these problems that persist or intensify”, Carlos César considered that “the PS must continue to demonstrate that it wants to be part of the solutions and not just part of the criticism and denunciation”.

“As long as this is the Government and it cannot be another, our duty is to help make it as bad as possible”, he concluded.
