Rui Rocha, president of the Liberal Initiative, this Friday, in statements to journalists while visiting the Portuguese Real Estate Exhibition at an event at FIL, criticized the justice reform manifesto and linked subscribers to the central bloc.
He says he will not make any proposal to equalize risk subsidies for security forces, but will insist on creating a compensation circle.
“I do not believe that the contribution of this manifesto will lead to any particular changes in matters of justice. The problems of justice are different, they are related to its own organization, primarily also with means and measures, with measures aimed in the field of administrative and criminal justice that allow speeding up processes,” he said, pointing out that IL has “concrete proposals” in these areas.
Rui Rocha argued that the “necessary context for a proper discussion” is not created by “always and constantly attacking justice and raising questions related to justice.”
The Liberal said he was willing to “discuss with everyone and listen to everyone on this issue” but stressed that “discussing fairness in relation to specific facts, specific cases has never been good politics.”
“A broader reflection on justice, made with the necessary calm and the necessary good will, always seems in order to me. We will do our part in parliament by proposing concrete measures in this regard,” he said.
When asked whether he considered this manifesto an attack on justice, the IL leader refused, pointing out that it was “an exercise of natural, desirable freedom of expression.”
“Citizens should organize and share their ideas, but when I see, for example, Ferro Rodriguez as a subscriber, I do not understand that this is a contribution that will be decisive in the development of justice that we want,” he defended.
Rui Rocha also said that this could be a form of pressure on political power, but noted that he “doubts whether this pressure will bring anything useful.”
“Sometimes people talk about the need for fairness pacts. I have nothing against fairness pacts. I hope that this desire for fairness pacts is not a ploy that paralyzes the debate,” he said.
