The secretary general of the PSdeG-PSOE, whose content La Voz de Galicia had access to, after this first complaint came the second harassment, harassment at work, for which the mayor is directly responsible. The councilor of this small municipality of barely 12,000 inhabitants, Xosé Carlos Valcárcel, was one of the signatories of one of the manifestos which denounced the poor management of sexual harassment scandals by the management led by Besteiro.
Besteiro appeared this Tuesday at an urgently called press conference to report on this new affair and announce that the PSOE will request that the councilor of the small town of Orense, who is also a provincial deputy, withdraw from his functions. If you do not respond to the request, you will be suspended from your membership. During his appearance, Besteiro defended himself against internal criticism regarding his handling of harassment cases, ensuring that he did not feel powerless in the face of manifestos that criticize his way of acting. When asked directly if he was considering the possibility of submitting his resignation, the Galician socialist leader replied forcefully: “Absolutely”.
The appearance of the leader of the Galician PSOE takes place a few hours after a new broadcast of the program ‘Código 10’, on Cuatro Television, which aired the complaint for sexual harassment that ended the career of José Tomé as president of the Deputation of Lugo. Those responsible for the television format suggest presenting this evening proof that those closest to the secretary general of the PSdeG-PSOE ignored the victims and tried to cover up the scandal. Meanwhile, from Madrid, Besteiro receives the support of the leadership of his party, which has expressly designated the leadership of the management company that will take the reins of socialism in Lugo. At the head of this office is Luis Ángel Lago Lage, his trusted person.
