On Tuesday 20th October 2026, Carl Munson’s Good Morning Portugal! news reports that police dismantled housing-protest camps in Lisbon and possibly Porto early this morning, with tents removed from public squares.
Other headlines include Cristiano Ronaldo being handed a 30-day suspension by the Portuguese Football Federation, Faro Council dropping an unused €16.4 million loan and planning a new investment package, calls for expanded waste treatment in the Algarve, and Volkswagen Autoeuropa workers rejecting a wage freeze.
Weather turns more autumnal and cloudy, with Lisbon at 20°C and Porto only 17°C.
