The SDP said on Tuesday that the PS would hold a “clap test” when voting on its tax cut proposals, requiring a “shock of conscience” to approve the Social Democrats’ “reasonable but significant” tax cuts.
The PSD presented at a press conference on Tuesday five tax-cut initiatives that party president Luis Montenegro announced in mid-August and which will be submitted to parliamentary debate on September 20 – four bills and one draft resolution.
“On the 20th, the PS faces the last cotton test of how it wants to treat the Portuguese, in particular the middle class, in terms of financial suffocation,” said party vice-president António Leitan Amaru, blaming the Socialists for the last 8 years of consecutive promises cuts, but every year they break “tax burden records.”
