The Aftermath of Elections - CHEGA’s Rise to Power
A Cry of Revolt in the Algarve and Alentejo…
Explaining CHEGA’s rise is simple and does not require in-depth social or political studies…
In regions marked by impoverishment and social discrimination, there is real revolt and frustration on the part of these communities.
It is important to highlight that in the Algarve and Alentejo, they are small communities that have been facing local problems and witnessing social injustices for decades.
Uncontrolled and unsupervised immigration into smaller communities is one of the most striking social factors.
Social alarm and feelings of insecurity are real, and residents of these areas live in constant fear.
They are tired of witnessing certain ethnic groups enjoying social privileges and impunity from the authorities.
Furthermore, over the years, some ethnic groups have demonstrated to the locals the support and privileges they receive, without contributing in a significant way, (it is impossible to remain indifferent to the lifestyle of these people, who live on social support and income from the state, not fits in and there is no supervision of support), contrasting with the harsh reality of those who work without any type of support.
These are smaller communities that have watched these problems drag on for decades, without receiving the same social support or incentives from the state or local authorities.
Corruption and political favoritism scandals by the Socialist Party tarnished the government's reputation, while families struggled with stagnant and insufficient incomes.
The lack of inspection and control over immigration has generated insecurity, fueling resentment among local communities who witness the impunity of certain ethnic groups.
The Algarve, whose economy is heavily dependent on tourism, faces a deafening silence from political power. The Algarve economy depends on tourism, which is only present for three months a year, and the lack of investment in other industries.
In Alentejo, once a communist stronghold, social problems persist, fueling discontent due to the lack of support for agriculture and insufficient investment in several sectors.
Residents are dismayed at the lack of support for local workers, while certain communities appear to benefit from preferential treatment.
This is not an issue of xenophobia, but of social justice. Locals witness daily the disparity between those who contribute to society and those who appear to receive benefits without contributing in kind. This gap fuels support for CHEGA, as people feel increasingly marginalized by previous policies.
