It's not neat, Mr PM

, September 21, 2013

Portuguese Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho laughs as a girl, a daughter of one his supporters, helps to neaten out his hair prior to his speech at a local elections rally in Malveira, north of Lisbon, September 20. Portuguese local elections, which will be held on September 29, will shed some light on how popular the parties in the centre-right ruling coalition remain. They have been in office since 2011, the year in which Portugal was forced to resort to a 78 billion euro European Union and IMF bailout which brought painful austerity measures and a deep recession.
