"It is urgent to make decisions". PS calls Government to Parliament for debate on cost of living

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 19:12

The Socialist Party (PS) is calling the Government to Parliament for an urgent debate on the cost of living. Eurico Brilhante Dias, on behalf of PS, argues that the executive should be present in parliament urgently to debate this issue.

The debate aims to address three main areas: fuels, food and housing. These are considered the sectors most affected by the rising cost of living that has worried citizens.

The PS resolution project on the topic remains scheduled for September 25. This initiative comes at a time when the cost of living has been a growing concern for Portuguese families.

Why this matters

The Portuguese face growing pressures on fuel, food and housing costs, and this debate could lead to government measures to mitigate these burdens. The urgency requested by PS indicates that the economic situation is worrying political parties and may result in new public policies.

Rui Calafate, a commentator for CNN Portugal, criticized the Portuguese environment minister, stating that she "needs to do more", comparing the actions of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, who "acted in defense of his populations", with the lack of support that Portuguese people are feeling from their own government. Calafate warned that "if things continue like this, the Portuguese won't be able to cope", suggesting that the Portuguese executive's response to environmental issues is failing its citizens.
