  From Monday 26 October, 95 petrol will get cheaper, but by less than was expected on Friday: by about 6.7 cents a litre rather than 8, to an average of €2.027 a litre. Diesel will go up by almost a cent, to €2.184.

  The reason is ISP, the tax on fuel. Every week the government reduces it on the mainland to hand back to drivers the extra VAT revenue generated by expensive oil. This week the discount on petrol was trimmed from €71.90 to €61.48 per 1,000 litres, about a cent a litre, while the discount on diesel was raised slightly, to €103.47. The discount has been extended until 31 December 2026.

  If you drive a diesel, it pays to fill up today. If you use petrol, it is better to wait until Monday. Prices at individual petrol stations are on the page How much fuel costs in Portugal.

  "Night" is too general a word. Two things happened on the night of 24–⁠25 October: PSP police moved in on the tent camp set up on Rossio in Lisbon by protesters demanding affordable housing (about 130 tents), and at 2am the clocks went back an hour to winter time. It is impossible to tell from a single word which of the two people were searching for.
