In a meeting with Prime Minister, Passos Coelho, held last week, Jardim asked for immediate financial help of 1.2 billion Euro. The Prime Minister was apparently quite put out by the fact that Jardim proposed no measures for debt repayment. Prior to the elections Jaridm stated that he would accept no measures imposed by the mainland Government and the Prime Minister retorted that Jardim would have to come up with his own proposals for debt reduction.
Following an article on Jardim's meeting with the PM, published in the DIário, the Madeira Presidency issued a communiqué stating that the positions this newspaper coninues to take 'personally against the President of the Government and the PSD in general, reveal to the population the perfectly idiotic guerrila the Blandy group and its lacqueys will maintain for the next four years of the new mandate.' It is signed by Paulo Pereira, not the world's brightes spark.
Faced with Jardim's silence, the Lisbon Government has mooted the idea of creating introducing motorway tolls, raising taxes and the reduction of civil servants (by about 600).
