BE leader candidate Mariana Mortagua defended this Saturday that “taking the country seriously” tells the Portuguese they are not doomed “to the humiliations” that “an absolute majority imposes”, believing that “the swamp can be overcome with democracy”.
“Taking the country seriously means telling people that we are not doomed to the degradation and humiliation that the absolute majority imposes on Portugal,” said Mariana Mortagua in her first speech at the 13th National Convention of the British Empire, in which she presented her proposal. leadership and which ended with a standing ovation.
For a blogger, “there are no shortcuts” and “hate is fought with hope”, just as an insult is treated with “respect”.
“The swamp is being overcome by democracy, not by ridiculous blackmail that accuses any voice that criticizes the PS or the government of populism,” he urged.
According to Mariana Mortagua, “the duty of the left is to restore strength, to unite the social will that does not give up the struggle for a good life.”
“The duty of the left is to be united and militant, speak clearly and mobilize the people,” he stressed.
Although she foresaw the risks of an absolute majority, BE’s leadership candidate suggested that she did not foresee “the point where the curse of absolute power would reach.”
In addition to “repeated shots in the leg” by the government, Mariana Mortagua emphasized that “this terrible spectacle is the result of a continuous series of irresponsibility”, the first of which is “a political crisis to block the budget with reasonable changes”. , preferring to put up with SNS degradation.”
The “object festival” is the second irresponsibility that the blogger pointed out when criticizing “the government that collects salaries from taxes that it forgives the economic elite.”
“Against irresponsibility, I want to tell you that Blok will challenge the truth about taxes to protect the people.
Returning to irresponsibility, Mariana Mortagua listed the “response to inflation” and yet the fourth one, which “is to treat impoverished people as stupid”.
“Teachers, doctors, nurses, court officials, cultural workers and many others know that a welfare announcement is a hook. lose 13 years of life,” he criticized.
At the start of his speech, the blogger warned of “necropolitics” as “the new old politics of this world.”
“Faced with the far right, which is gaining ground across Europe, the policies of the center are empty words that only fuel resentment and fear,” he criticized, referring to António Costa, as well as Macron, who “evoke his strength,” as as if they had come to be vaccinated. people against the virus.
However, for Mortagua, “the most dangerous virus is a way to trample people down with impoverishment, lack of social protection and traps like European treaties.”
“It is from this attack on democratic sovereignty that the virus of the right feeds, and to combat it, our answer is the security of people’s lives: equality, housing, health, education, wages, tax justice are the only remedies against the virus. Would you like to know our program to fight the lie virus? We tell every worker, every worker that on the left is equality, housing, health, education, wages, fairness in taxes,” he stressed.
