Another week, another bad scandal plaguing failing Spanish socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez.
After a slew of corruptions scandals involving his wife, his brother and some of his closest allies, Sánchez tried to begin again with a clean slate after making sweeping changes in the Socialist party leadership – but that just blew in his face.
His move has today (5) been overshadowed by the resignation – over sexual harassment claims – of an official that he promoted to replace the people tainted with corruption allegations.
Reuters reported:
“Francisco Salazar offered to step down as a deputy in the organization’s secretariat and asked for the allegations to be investigated, the Socialist party (PSOE) said in a statement.
The PSOE said it would begin an investigation immediately, adding that no allegations had been made through its usual channels.”
Watch: Salazar getting praise from MP while seemingly harassed woman puts him in his place.

Left-wing Spanish press reported of a Socialist Party employee accusing Salazar of ‘making obscene comments about her clothes and body, inviting her to dine alone with him and asking her to sleep at his home’ while she worked for him at Moncloa Palace – the PM’s residence and workplace.
“The scandal involving Salazar came just as Sanchez was set to speak at the PSOE’s headquarters in Madrid, where he was due to announce measures to assuage members of his party concerned about the damage to its reputation and its ability to survive.”
Watch: Salazar in happier days.

An hour later than scheduled, Sánchez spoke to a downcast audience, calling for ‘any woman suffering sexual abuse’ to report it through the channels provided by the party.
“’If we believe that a woman’s body is not for sale, then there can be no room for behavior that contradicts this belief’, he said, without mentioning Salazar.”
