João Maria Jonet

João Maria Jonet is a political consultant and commentator who has recently announced his candidacy for the Câmara de Cascais as an independent candidate. At 27 years old, he has expressed concern over the lack of engagement from traditional political parties and aims to bring a fresh perspective to local governance. He believes that Cascais needs to prioritize its natural heritage and ensure housing options are not limited to luxury developments. Jonet has previously worked with the Social Democratic Party (PSD) but has decided to run as an independent to advocate for greater civic participation in politics.
