Lawyer and political scientist Jorge Folena states that, despite Lula's disadvantage compared to Flávio after the first round, the end of the 6x1 scale has the potential to aid the president: "Flávio is in a delicate situation because he worked to prevent the approval of the PEC. And this is a PEC that benefits the entire working class. President Lula, because he was the one who proposed this with his parliamentary allies. And Alcolumbre, he held the agenda, then tried to bring it to a vote before the first round, but didn't succeed."
According to the analyst, ending the 6x1 scale "is a priority for this legislature" and, regardless of the outcome, it should be decided now: "This is not an issue for the legislature that will take office next year. The current legislature is the one with the constitutional mandate. Those elected on Sunday are not yet deputies or senators."
He believes that reducing the workweek will face political difficulties at this delicate moment because the right "will try to prevent the Lula government from winning on an issue that benefits the working class."
The political scientist claims that PL and businessmen still opposed to this change have a "slave-owning" perspective and reminds that former Minister of Jair Bolsonaro and current campaign coordinator of Flávio, Rogério Marinho, was responsible for implementing the most severe pension reform for the working class.
There is a responsibility on the part of the working class that still does not understand what voting for Flávio Bolsonaro means. Not the entire society, which is still very divided. But those who did not vote also have a responsibility and must vote for the working class.
Jair Bolsonaro Free?
The request forcriminal reviewThe petition filed by the defense of former President Jair Bolsonaro, convicted for attempted coup, divides the Supreme Federal Court (STF): on one side, ministers argue that there are no exceptional elements to justify the action; on the other, ministers appointed by Bolsonaro, such asKassio Nunes MarquesThe sentences, including those from human rights organizations and legal experts, have publicly stated that they consider the sentences excessive.
Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) has already promised that, if elected, he will grant a pardon to his father. The minister in charge of the case is Nunes Marques, who also presides over the Superior Electoral Court (TSE), and he stated that he will delay the trial until after the second round to avoid accusations of interfering in the elections.
The lawyer and political scientist Jorge Folena emphasizes that, first and foremost, Nunes Marques' statements are not made within the framework of the Electoral Court, but before the Supreme Court (STF). "He is merely a judge and does not represent the court. Ultimately, it is the collegial body that will deliberate and make the final decision," he states toConnection BdFText: "From the"Brazil's Radio FatoThe minister stated: 'The country's economic growth in the last quarter was 1.5%, according to the latest data from the Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). This figure is lower than expected, but it is important to note that it represents a recovery from the previous quarter's contraction.'Mendonça"Nunes Marques and Fux have already disrupted the Brazilian electoral process too much, and that needs to be made clear," he emphasizes.
Regarding the incident involving those convicted of attempting a coup, on Tuesday, June 6th, Minister Alexandre de Moraes granted "Débora do Batom" the right to serve her sentence in a semi-open regime. Folena does not believe this decision is a nod to Bolsonarism and considers it could have been made based solely on technical criteria. "If she has completed her closed regime sentence and already meets the conditions for a semi-open regime, she has the right, like any other citizen in that situation," he emphasizes.
