Voters in Portugal go to the polls Sunday in an early election that could see the country join a shift to the right seen across Europe after eight years of Socialist rule.
Like in many European countries the social democratic party calls it self socialist party. It gets especially odd in Portugal, because the big center-right conservative party calls themselves ”social democrats” 🙄
cmeio rightly pointed out that “socialist rule” did not necessarily apply to Europe, but Portugal specifically. My understanding is that you mean the same, but in a rather less polite way, correct?
