Basta! (coalition)
Basta (lit. 'Enough') was a right-wing populist party coalition in Portugal, formed by the political party Chega, the People's Monarchist Party, and the Citizenship and Christian Democracy party. The Democracy 21 movement was also a part of the coalition on the European elections, but decided to quit shortly after because of the proposal of the Citizenship and Christian Democracy party to revoke the law permitting abortion.

The coalition was formed in order to participate in the 2019 European elections, joining several formations from the Portuguese political right. The coalition embodies the wide range of ideologies advocated by the different parties that make it up: the conservatism defended by all, the populism and nationalism of the Chega party, the monarchism of the People's Monarchist Party, the Christian democracy of the Citizenship and Christian Democracy party and the economic liberalism defended by the Democracy 21 political movement.
