"Renata Cambra? We have no problems with the competition"

In a recorded interview, Paulo Muacho from the Livre party discussed the importance of MPs participating in recent protests and criticized the government's interpretation of a court ruling regarding police actions. He emphasized that their presence at protests was not to represent the demonstrators but to understand their concerns and signal disagreement with police violence. Muacho rejected the idea that leftist parties were trying to instrumentalize the protests, asserting that they were politically motivated but not party-driven. He also commented on the Lisbon Administrative Court's decision, arguing for a uniform interpretation of rights regarding protests and criticizing the Ministry of Internal Administration's stance. He believes that the government's heavy-handed approach only exacerbates public dissent.
