== Ideology ==
Chega considers itself a party with [[Nationalism|nationalist]],<ref>{{Cite news|work=[[The Guardian]]|title=Portugal election result cements modest gains for Europe's centre-left|date=7 October 2019|url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/oct/07/portugal-election-gains-centre-left-europe-antonio-costa-socialist-party}}</ref> [[Conservatism|conservative]] and [[Personalism|personalist]] roots.<ref name="CHEGA">{{cite web|title=Manifesto|url=https://partidochega.pt/manifesto/|work=Partido Político CHEGA|date=7 February 2019|access-date=2019-05-22|language=pt-PT}}</ref> It defends the promotion of an effective judicial system and the decrease of the State's intervention in the economy. The party also presents itself as [[National conservatism|national conservative]] and [[Social conservatism|social conservative]].<ref name="JSOL1">{{cite web|last1=Rainho|first1=Vítor|last2=Martinho|first2=Beatriz|url=https://sol.sapo.pt/especiais/andre-ventura-sou-contra-o-aborto-mas-nunca-condenaria-uma-mulher-que-aborta/|title=André Ventura: 'Sou contra o aborto mas nunca condenaria uma mulher que aborta'|access-date=2019-05-22|publisher=Jornal SOL}}</ref>

The agenda of Chega is heavily focused on criminality issues, support for [[Law enforcement in Portugal|the police forces of the country]], and the misuse of taxpayers' money in terms of [[corruption]] at the top, [[overstaffing]] in the civil service at the middle and [[Welfare fraud|undeserving welfare recipients]] at the bottom.<ref>The rise of Chega and the end of Portuguese exceptionalism, [[London School of Economics]] (21 January 2021) https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2021/01/21/the-rise-of-chega-and-the-end-of-portuguese-exceptionalism/</ref><ref>Chega "eclipsa" destruição da escola pública e do SNS do seu programa, [[Diário de Notícias]] (27 August 2021) https://www.dn.pt/politica/chega-eclipsa-destruicao-da-escola-publica-e-do-sns-do-seu-programa-14065470.html</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=O'Reilly |first=Thomas |date=2023-12-13 |title=Portugal Election: Chega Challenges Establishment Parties |url=https://europeanconservative.com/articles/news/portugal-election-chega-challenges-establishment-parties/ |access-date=2024-02-11 |website=europeanconservative.com |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-08-21 |title=How far-right extremism seeped into Portugal’s mainstream politics |url=https://www.euronews.com/2023/08/21/they-say-theyre-not-racist-how-far-right-extremism-seeped-into-portugals-mainstream-politi |access-date=2024-02-11 |website=euronews |language=en}}</ref>

The party advocates for a decrease of the [[tax incidence]], considering the current tributary system to be "brutal and aggressive to the ones who work and build wealth, taking away half of their incomes". It additionally defends a reduction of both [[bureaucracy]] and the number of [[bureaucrat]]s, asserting that it is one of the main reasons for the "Portuguese competitive economic backwardness".<ref name="CHEGA" />

The party supports [[life imprisonment]] and [[chemical castration]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Chega party proposes chemical castration for repeat rape offenders|url=https://www.theportugalnews.com/news/2021-03-24/chega-party-proposes-chemical-castration-for-repeat-rape-offenders/58936|access-date=2021-09-22|website=www.theportugalnews.com|language=en}}</ref> Some members also support the [[death penalty]] for crimes such as terrorism or child abuse; in a 2020 party referendum, 44% voted in favor.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://tekdeeps.com/chega-militants-fail-death-penalty-and-re-elect-andre-ventura/ | title=Chega militants fail death penalty and re-elect André Ventura | date=6 September 2020 | access-date=18 April 2021 | archive-date=8 January 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220108225222/https://tekdeeps.com/chega-militants-fail-death-penalty-and-re-elect-andre-ventura/ | url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>[https://jornaleconomico.sapo.pt/en/news/eleicoes-diretas-do-chega-chamam-11-313-militantes-a-referendar-andre-ventura-e-a-pena-de-morte-633261] {{Dead link|date=August 2022}}</ref>

Describing itself a strong proponent of [[Western Civilization|Western civilization]], the party positions itself against [[Islamist extremism]] and proposes stronger border controls and a decrease of "mass and illegal immigration".<ref name="CHEGA" /> It has been also described as [[Antiziganism|antiziganist]].<ref>{{Cite news|work=[[Observador]]|title=Pastoral dos Ciganos considera racistas e ilegais declarações de André Ventura|date=8 September 2020|url=https://observador.pt/2020/09/08/pastoral-dos-ciganos-considera-racistas-e-ilegais-declaracoes-de-andre-ventura/}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|work=[[Observador]]|title=Figuras públicas e associações repudiam afirmações de André Ventura sobre ciganos|date=6 May 2020|url=https://observador.pt/2020/05/06/figuras-publicas-e-associacoes-repudiam-afirmacoes-de-andre-ventura-sobre-ciganos/}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|work=[[Radio Renascença]]|title=Confinar ciganos?

It also supports bilateral agreements and immigration from former Portuguese colonies such as [[Brazil]], [[Portuguese-speaking African countries]], [[Macau]] and [[East Timor]] while taking a more critical stance on non-Western immigration. It also calls for a zero tolerance policy on illegal immigration and for the deportation of immigrants with criminal records or those who are economically inactive.<ref name="auto">{{cite web |url=https://partidochega.pt/manifesto-para-a-europa/ |title=MANIFESTO FOR EUROPE |date=15 August 2019 |access-date=2022-01-29}}</ref> It is also opposed to [[multiculturalism]] and the practice of [[sharia law]] within the Portuguese legal system, but also claims to reject xenophobia on its platform.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://partidochega.pt/manifesto-para-a-europa/ |title=Founding Political Manifesto |date=15 August 2019 |access-date=2022-01-29}}</ref>

Chega's stance on the [[European Union]] has been described as [[Eurosceptic]].<ref>{{Cite web|work=[[European Council on Foreign Relations]]|title=The instinctive multilateralist: Portugal and the politics of cooperation|date=2 October 2019|url=https://www.ecfr.eu/publications/summary/instinctive_multilateralist_portugal_politics_cooperation}}</ref> The party states that it supports the original "four freedoms" principle of free movement of goods, capital, services and people among member states, but argues for a "Europe of sovereign nations united by shared [[Greco-Roman world|Greco-Roman]] and [[Judeo-Christian ethics|Judeo-Christian principles]]" and opposes interference into national political decision making within member states by the EU. It also calls on Portugal to pursue more independent foreign and economic policies from Brussels and rejects compulsory EU migrant and refugee quotas. Furthermore, the party also argues that Portugal should exit the EU if it tries to become a [[Federalisation of the European Union|federal state]].<ref name="auto"/>

== Leadership elections ==
The 2020 Chega leadership election was held on 6 September 2020. [[André Ventura]] was re-elected with more than 99% of the vote, facing no opposition.<ref>{{Cite web |title=André Ventura reeleito presidente do Chega com 99,1% dos votos |url=https://tvi24.iol.pt/politica/eleicoes/andre-ventura-reeleito-presidente-do-chega-com-99-1-dos-votos |access-date=2020-09-06 |website=TVI24 |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Ralha |first=Leonardo |date=2020-09-05 |title=Eleições diretas do Chega chamam 11.313 militantes a "referendar" André Ventura e a pena de morte |url=https://jornaleconomico.sapo.pt/noticias/eleicoes-diretas-do-chega-chamam-11-313-militantes-a-referendar-andre-ventura-e-a-pena-de-morte-633261 |access-date=2020-09-06 |website=O Jornal Económico |language=pt-PT}}</ref> The party’s statutes have been rejected by the [[Constitutional Court of Portugal|Constitutional Court]] several times for concentrating excessive power in the hands of Ventura.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=2023-06-27 |title=Portugal's third political force among prominent 'hate' organisations |url=https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/portugals-third-political-force-among-prominent-hate-organisations/ |access-date= |website=www.euractiv.com |language=en-GB}}</ref>

In 2020, it was reported that there was a "guerrilla atmosphere" within the party, the result of tensions between the different factions that make up the party.<ref>{{cite web |date=9 December 2020 |title=Ameaças, jogos de poder e ligações perigosas do Chega |url=https://visao.sapo.pt/atualidade/politica/2020-12-09-investigacao-ameacas-jogos-de-poder-e-ligacoes-perigosas-do-chega/ |website=Visão |language=pt-PT}}</ref>

In response to some of the mainstream criticism, the party's president, André Ventura, denounced the accusations of racism, claiming that Chega defends equal rights and duties, and that it "doesn't desire a country on which minorities can believe they have more rights than others simply for being minorities".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Carlos |first=João |date=2020-07-02 |title="Portugal não é um país racista, mas existe racismo em Portugal" |url=https://www.dw.com/pt-002/portugal-n%C3%A3o-%C3%A9-um-pa%C3%ADs-racista-mas-existe-racismo-em-portugal/a-54027614 |access-date=2021-02-22 |website=DW |language=pt-PT}}</ref> On 27 June 2020, the party organized a protest entitled "Portugal is not racist", where Ventura further mentioned that there is no structural racism in Portugal, and that the political left uses racism as a pretext to foment political agendas.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-08-02 |title=Chega manifestou-se em Lisboa para dizer que "Portugal não é racista" |url=https://observador.pt/2020/08/02/chega-manifestou-se-em-lisboa-para-dizer-que-portugal-nao-e-racista/ |access-date=2021-02-22 |website=Observador |language=pt-PT}}</ref>

The party has also been targeted with critics for reusing a slightly modified version of the motto of the Portuguese dictator [[António de Oliveira Salazar]] "Deus, Pátria, Família" (God, Fatherland, Family).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Ventura adapta lema de Salazar: "Deus, pátria, família e trabalho" |url=https://www.dn.pt/politica/ventura-adapta-lema-de-salazar-deus-patria-familia-e-trabalho--14361948.html |access-date=2022-10-11 |website=www.dn.pt |date=28 November 2021 |language=pt-PT}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title="Deus, Pátria e Família": a frase do Estado Novo repetida no congresso do Chega |url=https://www.jn.pt/nacional/deus-patria-e-familia-a-frase-do-estado-novo-repetida-no-congresso-do-chega-14361074.html |access-date=2022-10-11 |website=www.jn.pt |language=pt-PT}}</ref> The party has been criticized for having supporters of Salazar within their ranks.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vários deputados do Chega fazem referências a Salazar e ao Estado Novo |url=https://expresso.pt/politica/2022-02-17-varios-deputados-do-chega-fazem-referencias-a-salazar-e-ao-estado-novo |access-date=2022-10-11 |website=Jornal Expresso |language=pt-PT}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Ventura mantém "total confiança pessoal e política" em deputados que elogiaram Salazar |url=https://www.sabado.pt/portugal/detalhe/ventura-mantem-total-confianca-pessoal-e-politica-em-deputados-que-elogiaram-salazar |access-date=2022-10-11 |website=www.sabado.pt |language=pt-pt}}</ref>

The Global Project against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE), an American NGO specialising in the study of extremist movements, warned in a 2023 report that Chega is an "anti-immigrant, anti-women, anti-LGBT, anti-Roma, anti-Muslim and conspiratorial party".
