The wave of complaints for sexual harassment within the PSOE affects the party’s number 2 in the province of Valencia, Toni González. The deputy secretary general of the socialist executive resigns from this post, but does not resign from his post as mayor of Almussafes.
This Friday, in a statement sent to Efe, González recognized that the accusations are “very serious”, but that It is “absolutely false that he harassed anyone at work or sexually.” In fact, he defined it as part of a campaign led by his political rivals, both inside and outside the PSPV-PSOE.
This Saturday, his superior, Carlos Fernández Bielsa assures that “there is no possible justification nor room for lukewarmness”. This is why he emphasizes that these behaviors “have no place in society and even less in our party”.
