The North Sea Green Paradox

Green blobbers want us to stop drilling because the North Sea is running dry – so why the panic about oil and gas extraction? The answer is that it’s as much about politics and punitive taxes as geology, says Ben Pile.

Presidente do IHRU lembra “sacrifícios” dos avós e dos pais: “Tiveram de emigrar para ter casa”

DR

O presidente do Instituto da Habitação e Reabilitação Urbana (IHRU) disse, esta quinta-feira, não saber “se a sociedade atual está disponível para o nível de sacrifício” da anterior, recordando que os seus próprios avós emigraram “para poderem ter uma casa”.

“Já fomos todos jovens, não é? (…) E percebemos essa dificuldade. Eu não sei se a sociedade atual está disponível para o nível de sacrifício que os nossos pais e os nossos avós fizeram para ter uma casa”, disse aos jornalistas Benjamim Pereira, em Vila Nova de Gaia.

Falando acerca das manifestações pela habitação que têm ocorrido sobretudo no Porto e em Lisboa, e questionado sobre se a geração atual está a ter menos sacrifício do que a geração anterior, o responsável do IHRU disse não querer ir “por esse caminho”.

“Só estou a dizer que os meus avós emigraram para o Brasil e para a Argentina para poderem ter uma casa. O meu pai emigrou durante 20 anos, sacrificou a vida”, prosseguiu, e perante as questões dos jornalistas sobre se os jovens também devem emigrar, afirmou que não estava “a dizer isso”.

Pedindo para “concluir o raciocínio”, Benjamim Pereira disse que os seus familiares emigraram “porque a casa era, efetivamente, uma coisa muito importante para a sua vida, a sua base logística, como é hoje”.

Frisando que fazia “um apelo” e não “uma crítica”, Benjamim Pereira pediu “a todos que se possam unir” pois “é um problema que tem de ser resolvido por todos e os jovens também fazem parte desta equação”.

“É preciso que haja um compromisso de todos. Reparem, os jovens podem organizar-se, fazer cooperativas. Eu já recebi pessoas no IHRU que agora, com os seus 60 e 70 anos, que quando eram da idade dos jovens que agora se estão a manifestar organizaram-se, fizeram cooperativas e fizeram as suas próprias casas”, afirmou.
