This week sees the 50th anniversary of the Portuguese “Carnation” Revolution that erupted in 1974 and was finally tamed in 1976 with the election of a government led by Soares from the Socialist Party(SP).

Portugal s new government clears first hurdles in parliament

Portugal's parliament voted down two motions put forward by hard-left parties against the minority centre-right government's inaugural legislative programme on Friday, clearing the first hurdle for the administration of Prime Minister Luis Montenegro. Despite the widely expected successful investiture, analysts say his government will be highly unstable as it will constantly require complex negotiations with the opposition in a fragmented parliament to pass legislation. The Communist Party and the Left Bloc, with just nine seats between them in the 230-seat parliament, had presented the motions to reject the government plan, which promises to maintain balanced budgets and keep reducing the public debt, while relying on lower taxes to boost growth.
