The populist leader of the far-right Chega party, André Ventura, holds his last electoral rally in Lisbon before elections on March 10. As campaigning wraps up, polls are pointing to an edge for the centre-right after eight years of Socialist rule, and huge gains for the far-right. The Chega party is tipped to more than double the support it won in a 2022 election, putting its leader Ventura in line to become kingmaker in a new parliament. IMAGES
