Fernando Holiday

In 2018, politician Ciro Gomes called Fernando Holiday a "capitão do mato" (captain of the bush). In an interview with Rádio Jovem Pan, while presenting his political proposals, Ciro, without being asked about Fernando Holiday, said:

Holiday said on video that he wants to sue him. On July 12, 2018, a police investigation was opened to investigate the nature of the allegations. In 2019, Gomes was convicted and ordered to pay R$38,000 in moral damages.

On December 26, 2018 there was a session in the City Hall of São Paulo which culminated in the approval of a social security reform in the city, which was marked by riots of protesters against reform and Holiday being the rapporteur of this project. Moments after approval, Holiday stated that he suffered an attempted murder while in his alderman's office. On this day Holiday posted a photo on his Twitter account which showed a hole supposedly caused by a gunshot. The Civil Police investigated the case.

In December 2016 his public position was opposed to the increase of the salaries of the councilors of São Paulo, approved on December 20 by the own ones, a readjustment of 26.3%, in the middle of financial crisis. On December 25, Judge Alberto Alonso Munoz through an preliminary injunction suspended the salary increase on the grounds that it violates the Fiscal Responsibility Law. The preliminary injunction was a popular action. In 2016, he gave an interview to the Brazil Parallel Congress, a group that in his documentaries, among others, explained Dilma Rousseff's impeachment.
