Admirable pragmatism
This would never happen in Spain
Calling Seguro a „left-wing candidate“ is a massive stretch.
He’s a run of the mill center-left politician, and ideologically he’s 90% center and 10% left. He could’ve easily ended up in PSD and wouldn’t look out of place at all, so it’s not a big ideological sacrifice at all for the moderate section of PSD to support him. The issue is that the radical section of the party has taken power (including the Prime-Minister), and for them publicly supporting someone who is very slightly associated to the left is unthinkable
I wish other countries conservatives were this pragmatic
Based AF. I wish other countries right wingers would have this enough common sense .
Seems like it’s more individual members rather than the official PSD stance, I was impressed for a second there
Shame Poland conservatives don’t see it that way 🙁
Rare Europe dub.
Am I imagining things? Conservatives supporting leftists instead of going with fascists to appease the capitalist overlords? No, I must be dreaming.
We pulled a similar move in 🇦🇹 and while I’m glad we did, no one should be under the illusion that this works well in any way
Hope we get a bit of that thunder in France in 2027
*looks next door*
„Yeeeah we don’t think King Carl will bail us out…“
Interesting. Trump must have an influence in this.
Why is everything I hear from you Portugal recently so insanely based?
