RTP Antena 1 Lisbon 13d13d Impact 3

The Lisbon City Council supported a commercial picnic event scheduled for this coming Sunday at Parque Eduardo VII. The Mayor stated that the council did not influence the selection of the promoter, Camila Vidal. A PS member, Pedro, requested the cancellation of the event, citing it as a symbol of increasing inequality in Lisbon. PSD councilman Diogo Moura stated that 80% of the event will have free entry. However, CDU councilman João Ferreira criticized the municipal support and the event's exemption from certain fees. Ferreira noted that the municipality did not decide the exemption, but rather that no one decided to pay the fees. Ferreira claimed the decision regarding fee exemptions was not made by the current City Council. The municipality president stated he has no influence over personal choices or event details.
