Socialist Party: Has António José Seguro's personal ambition driven the last nail into Portugal's coffin?

In an act of final desperation, António José Seguro, 

and his socialist supporters

decided unanimously to present a motion of non-confidence against 

the current coalition government of PM Passos Coelho.

In the middle of an austerity bailout programme, 

where extremely painful sacrifices are asked from the Portuguese, 

many of whom have lost their jobs, with the country still having to face 

many years of financial difficulties, Socialist José Seguro, 

threaten the country with a non-confidence vote in parliament,

against the austerity measures, imposed by the international community,

ironically, negotiated with the "troika" by the Socialist government 

of Mr. José Sócrates in May 2011.

Totally in panic, 

Seguro and his hencemen, 

instictively tried to divert attention from their woes, 
attacking the government, 

thereby desperately trying to get away from the threat

which Socrates' return poses for Seguro's political survival.

Plagued by fierce internal battles for socialist leadership, 

between Seguro and various Sócrates' supporters,

and a strong, personal ambition for the limelight, 

Seguro and his supporters were totally caught on the hop, 

literally scurring around like frightened rats into 

their socialist headquarters in the "Largo do Rato" 

(literally meaning: "The Rats Square".

To deflect attention from his own political dilema, 

and seeing his political future, 
so terribly close to be within reach, 
going down the drain, 

Seguro had to strike while the iron was hot, 

 notwithstanding, the desperate situation of the country, 

decided to put his personal interest in first, 
in detriment of any patriotic interest.

Seguro prefers to launch the country in total political instability, 

and become PM, 
than to swallow his pride and participate 

in the national debate on essential reforms 
desperately needed in the country.

What unbridled personal ambition can do to a country,

  by bringing about total destruction and misery!!

The final nail in the coffin!!

“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, 

the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, 

its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”

― Winston Churchill
