  1. There is a lot of fake news and disinformation on this video.
    Portugal is ranked 34/180 on the CPI (Corruption Perception Index) – Placing Portugal in the top 20% of least corrupt countries in the world – You can Google this information.
    This alone makes the rest of the “facts” exposed on this video questionable.
    This does not mean that there is no evidence of truth in some of the other comments, but this gross exaggeration alone drastically reduces the credibility of the presentation.

  2. The issues are super-valid. But the video itself is very bad and dangerous in my opinion. No real data, very little facts, poor analysis if any, no solutions. It’s a dangerous oversimplification of the valid issues, one-sided views and inflamed narrative.

  3. But why do the people of Madeira keep voting this party in? This is what i do not understand. This is supposed to be a nice question so i would appreciate a nice balanced reply.

    1. The next viable parties are either Socialist or far right. Believe it or not, many here do not believe in giving handouts to those that don’t work and think the socialist party will do so and also hinder business development going forward. They also fear mass immigration for legally entitled families that once lived here but left to find work (S. Africa, Brizil, Venezuela, Europe etc). A return on mass would kill the island, the infrastructure couldn’t cope, so low wages and hardly any jobs keeps this in check. My take on it anyway. 🤷

    2. You have two newspapers, neither ask the questions or rock the boat, as they should. I am told corruption is not just at the top, but all the way down the ladder. Compared to the 80s most people are better off so it’s a case of better the devil you know. Something the British public are wondering if they should have thought at the recent election.

  4. I’d like to know more about the author. I’d like to know anything about the author. What knowledge does he have of Madeira, has he lived on the Island, if so for how long, is he Madeiran? Do articles like this furnish his income? He uses two photo shots of Madeira, contrasting the 80s with today. Has he asked the local population whether they would like to go back to the 80s? Daily Mail journalism.

  5. The AI voice almost made me turn it off. A cross between Harold from “Steptoe & Son” and a cockney from South Africa 😳

  6. Another misleading and missinformation juding people without showing any evidence leave to the justice and the investigatores to prove if they are guilty or not .
