José Luís Pereira Carneiro (born 4 October 1971) is a Portuguese politician from the Socialist Party.

Political career

He has been Minister of Internal Administration in the XXIII Constitutional Government of Portugal since 30 March 2022.[1] Polling in 2023 found him to be the most popular minister in the government of António Costa.

Following Costa's resignation as the prime minister of Portugal, Carneiro was a candidate for the leadership of the Socialist Party.[2] On 16 December of the same year, he lost against Pedro Nuno Santos in an internal vote.[3]
