Portugal's prime minister, socialist Jose Socrates, passed on Thursday, thanks to the expected conservative opposition abstained, the motion of censure tabled by the Marxist left to the economic and social crisis facing the country. The main opposition party, the Social Democrats (PSD, center-right) and the Democrats of the CDS-PP, third formation of Parliament, with abstention prevented the fall of the Government of Socrates in the second vote of no confidence faced since losing absolute majority in elections in September 2009.
Socrates, who has suffered a total of six motions like this since he took office in 2005, only gained the support of his Socialist Party (PS), with 91 of the 230 seats in the Assembly, and was rejected by the three forces policies located further to the left, totaling 31 representatives.
