Election defeat – Passos Coelho to quit Social Democratic Party presidency

Published on 04/10/2017

Former Prime Minister of Portugal, and current Social Democratic Party leader, Pedro Passos Coelho has decided not to seek re-election, due to last Sunday’s collapse in support for his party at the local election ballot box.

On Sunday night, when PSD defeat was clear, Passos Coelho said he needed a few days to consider his position. This he has done and decided that ‘enough is enough.’
