At least two women who were part of Pedro Sánchez’s federal executive have complained to some colleagues about Javier Izquierdo’s “sloppy behavior.” The Secretary of Strategy and Electoral Action chosen by Sánchez was forced to resign this Thursday due to the … night after ABC revealed a few hours earlier that there was a member of management identified by the victims and after learning, thanks to messages received by this newspaper, that the person identified was him.
Reports of Izquierdo’s alleged inappropriate behavior are not new. That’s to say, They are not arriving now, in full accountability of the victims. Well, it was last July, after the complaints against Salazar came to light, that Ferraz’s wives first spoke out about his attitude toward them. Although several people working at the Ferraz 70 federal headquarters have often mentioned their name, and it is not for the best, there are two specific cases who were direct victims of this.
It is about two leaders also chosen by Sánchez be part of the Federal Executive during the previous stages. The first of the alleged victims, who repeatedly complained about her partner’s “drooling”, was fired from management due to pressure from the classical feminist sector. The other is still in office today and has more powers granted by the Secretary General after the latest steps by Congress. Complaints also occurred in the Castilla y León region.
Protected by Cerdán and Ferraz
During the configuration of the electoral lists for the 2023 elections, the former provincial secretary of Valladolid and now Minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, Óscar Puente, decided to remove Javier Izquierdo, already resigned, from the lists. The former mayor of Valladolid, who had just won the elections in the city but found himself unable to govern due to an agreement between PP and Vox, got rid of his partner although he was part of the Federal Executive for internal reasons, in no case, according to the minister’s entourage, for having knowledge of this alleged irregular behavior with women.
But when the lists arrived at Ferraz 70, where the candidates ended up being validated, the former organizational secretary of the PSOE and now alleged leader of a criminal organization, Santos Cerdán, decided to modify the proposal that the province of Valladolid had made with the approval of its members to include Javier Izquierdo as number one on the Senate lists.
