“The changes that have happened will, of course, continue to happen: but was I expecting someone to say otherwise?” said Luís Montenegro, in response to the parliamentary leader of Livre.
After criticism from Livre deputy Isabel Mendes Lopes, who recalled the recent departures of the Ombudsman of Santa Casa da Misericórdia, Ana Jorge, or the previous national director of the PSP, José Barros Correia, the prime minister added that he will not carry out "any purge" in Public Administration with partisan criteria but will "make the necessary changes so that government policies can be well executed and can have an impact on increasing the quality of life of the Portuguese and fulfilling the government program”.
