Government has to "know how to listen" but "part of the street is instrumentalized"

Miguel Pinto Luz, the Minister of Infrastructure and Housing, emphasizes the government's commitment to listening to public concerns about housing, while criticizing the Left Bloc for allegedly manipulating the issue. He defends the government's communication efforts and praises the President's engagement with political parties. Pinto Luz expresses confidence in the new rental law despite criticism from Chega, and he acknowledges the need for improved communication regarding the housing crisis. He also critiques the Socialist Party's handling of the housing situation, claiming they are misleading the public. The minister highlights the potential for reintroducing 200,000 vacant properties into the market and insists that landlords should no longer have excuses for keeping homes empty, urging local authorities to play their part.
