On Friday 23rd October 2026, Carl Munson’s Good Morning Portugal! news leads with the clocks going back on Sunday 25th October (02:00 mainland, 01:00 in the Azores), the conclusion of the Rossio housing protests by popular vote at half past midnight last night, and a massive citizenship-application backlog of 690,000 pending cases. There will be a march this weekend and a vigil in Marvila for an evicted mother with two children; the 55 people detained earlier in the week are due before a judge on 27 October.



Other headlines include the government passing a law to unblock almost half a million “frozen” homes, and Portugal’s property wealth increasingly concentrated among the richest 10%.



Weather stays cloudy, with Lisbon at 22°C and Faro 24°C.



Carl is joined by Natasha Donn for the Portugal Resident news review at 09:15...
