Commission of Elections snubbed by President of Parliament

Miguel Mendonça, the chairperson of the Regional Parliament, and most important regional figure in terms of protocol, has refused to greet the National Commission of Elections in the Regional Parliament. President Jardim had earlier issued orders that no one of his party should meet with the Commission.

Mendonça refused to greet the Commission stating agenda problems, but there is no reason why the Commission should not be received by one of the Deputy-Chairs of the Parliament, one of whom is the regional socialist leader, Jacinto Serrão.

Meanwhile, President Jardim carries on using official ceremonies to insult his critics and to invite the population to his party-political rally, to be held on the 31is of July. This is a golden opportunity for visitors to witness the ranting speeches of a power-mad politician, who has clung to power for over three decades.
