Anti-immigration protests in Portugal. Thousands of people marched through the streets of Lisbon during a demonstration organized by the far-right CHEGA party to protest against migratory pressure deemed uncontrolled. “If we let 15% more immigrants into Portugal, there won’t be enough housing for everyone“, says André Ventura, the leader of the far-right party. Last year, the number of foreigners increased by 33%. To calm the situation, the center-right government decided to toughen up its migration policy .

On the evening of Monday September 30, Britain’s last coal-fired power station closed its doors. Great Britain thus becomes the first G7 country to phase out coal. Germany also intends to take this ecological turn by focusing on hydrogen. However, there is still a long way to go, and Germany is not expected to abandon coal mining before 2038.
