Chega (European Portuguese: [ˈʃeɣɐ]; officially stylised as CHEGA!; lit. 'Enough!') is a national conservative, right-wing populist[2] political party in Portugal formed in 2019 by André Ventura.[3] It is characterized as being far-right[4] of the political spectrum.[5][6][7]
Chega won one seat in the Assembly of the Republic in the 2019 election. Since this election, the party has rapidly grown in popularity, gaining significant support for its anti-establishment positions.[8] It was the third most voted party in the elections of 2022 taking 12 seats. It saw a surge in support in the 2024 winning 50 seats, more than quadrupling its previous seat count.[9]
News article on the campaign for Europeans Elections refers to the meager chance that the coalition "Basta!" to elect a MEP and advances the reasons for the country to resist the wave of far-right that reached the rest of Europe.
