António Costa and his communist partners in a leftist coalition.
Ferro Rodrigues, the President of the Assembly of the Republic,
making fun.
A dictatorship of the majority
In the Portuguese Parliament reigns 
an "environment of democratic claustrophobia."
1) For the first time in democracy, 
we had a President of a Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry 
(ICC) who resigned; 
2) for the first time we had the work of a parliamentary Inquiry 
conditioned; 
3)for the first time there so many requirements and objections to
the hearings were denied and rejected in an indiscriminate manner;
4)For the first time there was a blockage and a boycott of an ICC and this, 
of course, disrupts the normal functioning of the Assembly of the Republic. "
President of the Assembly of the Republic,
Ferro Rodrigues, is one of those responsible 
an "environment of democratic claustrophobia. 
within the Parliament"
The Opposition will not fail to "point out those responsible 
for the absolutely intolerable circumstance 
from the democratic point of view" 
that is created within the Assembly of the Republic, 
guaranteeing that Ferro Rodrigues 
"integrates this range of political leaders."
"The use and abuse of the power, of the Members 
that make up "the radical leftist majority, 
prevent "the exercise of rights that are not even enforceable 
from a legal point of view." 
For the PSD parliamentary leader, 
"what is happening in CGD is worrying, 
it is scandalous from the democratic point of view 
because they are rights that are being curtailed in their exercise 
when the law does not foresee that this situation can occur."
Regarding the unconstitutionality 
of the second commission of inquiry to CG
(the State Bank - which intends to focus 
on the management of António Domingues), 
Luis Montenegro states that "it is very symptomatic 
that even before a commission of inquiry is constituted, 
without any delimitation of the object of the inquiry yet,
 there is already an enormous effort on the part of the radical forces 
working in the background, 
to carry out a democratic boycott in the Parliament 
in trying to demonstrate that there are unconstitutional diligences ".
In the future commission, 
which will be formed 
"by the end of the week", confirms Montenegro, 
"people will be interrogated, 
there will be an access to hidden documents 
that may help the discovery of the truth." 
Some of the elements that will be requested, 
Montenegro admits that 
"the communications exchanged 
between the Minister of Finance, Mário Centeno 
his cabinet, his secretaries of state and the administration of CGD, 
António Domingues, 
before being invited and while in office" will be requested. 
Luís Montenegro also admits that the Prime Minister, Antonio Costa 
could be called in the same commission: 
"We do not exclude any possibility, 
including [listening to the prime minister]."
