The activist Sá Ferreira did not said some relevant facts about the Left Bloc: Supporting the Socialist Party (Right Wing w/ a left name)in the last presidential campaign was a major flaw and broke a lot of voters support for the Left Bloc; The Left Bloc MP’s in the European Parliament did not oppose the Libya invasion as one can read from their own articles in their website (esquerda.net); the Left Bloc and the PCP are not giving the correct feedback to the mass, the people really want a left wing coalition between this both parties.

In my opinion, the major problem is not the media or the meeting with the IMF (nobody from the left movements in Portugal really hope anything from them). The real problem is the lack of a real left/socialist response from Left Bloc and Communist Party, we can see in their speeches and official papers (specially in the Left Bloc case) the delibarate omission of a Socialist program. They can keep trying to gain some votes from the PS, but since the PS is a real right wing party, they are clearly going to the bad direction…
