“We defend that it is necessary to do it differently. We believe that this council section needs to maintain a strong core structure, being open to the active participation of new elements who wish to add value to the
work developed, towards a common goal: A strong PSD Olhão,
credible and victorious.
Safeguarding the continuity of projects already implemented, we present a renewed list, under the responsible guidance of some elements that have been proven in the recent past.
We are for an aggregating fusion of militants that allows the youngest to continuously learn, while allowing them to add value to the collective work with their ideas, proposals and personal skills.
We believe that seniority policy should not be a post, and that the values of work, dedication and merit should prevail and be extolled.
The future of PSD Olhão depends and needs everyone, especially those who are willing to give, to contribute, to serve the public cause, voluntarily disposing of their time and competence for the benefit of a common purpose.
In order to lead the PSD Olhão to new times with horizons of the future, through a more open, dynamic and aggregating council, we present the central axes of this mandate:
– Refiliation: Reinforcing the trust of militants through given evidence,
we bet on the rapprochement with the party of those who at some point
disbelieved.
– JSD Reactivation: Without youth there is no future, so reactivate Youth
Social Democrats in Olhão is crucial for a long-term project. With
a renewed headquarters, together with the Secondary School of Olhão, the
conditions for the meeting of ideas and desires.
– Closeness between elected officials and voters: Those elected by the PSD must be the voice of the people in local authorities. It is essential that mayors insist on the presentation of questions and proposals that reflect the needs of the
population and make public the feedback obtained after each meeting of
Parish Assembly, Chamber meeting or Municipal Assembly.
This is an essential commitment for a good performance and consolidation of an image of reputation of the PSD of Olhão.
We want a PSD Olhão that helps to clarify, to inform, to resolve. We count on everyone to combine experience with innovation. Because we believe that the future needs everyone!”
