Spain’s Ruling Party Drowns in Harassment Scandal
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Spain’s ruling Socialist Party (PSOE) is now caught in an embarrassing storm after a new sexual harassment scandal overshadowed Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez’s attempt to clean up the party’s image.

On Saturday, Francisco Salazar, a key party figure, resigned after facing serious sexual harassment allegations. His exit immediately wrecked Sanchez’s plans to present a fresh leadership team meant to contain the ongoing corruption mess that has rattled the government.

The resignation came just as Sanchez was preparing to speak at the party’s Madrid headquarters. Instead of announcing reforms, the news cycle was consumed by the latest scandal to hit the Socialist Party.

Harassment Allegations Worsen Party’s Crisis

In a statement, the Socialist Party confirmed Salazar’s resignation. They also pledged an investigation, claiming no complaint had been filed through their official channels.

However, Spanish media outlet elDiario.es reported that a female employee accused Salazar of making vulgar comments about her appearance. She also alleged that he invited her to dine alone with him and even urged her to sleep at his home during her time working under him at the Moncloa Palace, the official residence of the prime minister.

This fresh scandal deepened the wounds of the Socialist Party. Just days earlier, former party heavyweight Santos Cerdan was ordered to be detained pending trial. He is accused of managing illegal kickbacks linked to public contracts. Cerdan has denied the charges, but the case continues to fuel public anger.

Growing Doubts Over Sanchez’s Grip on Power

Prime Minister Sanchez now finds himself in an increasingly fragile position. His government relies on a shaky alliance of nationalist and far-left parties to stay in power. So far, these allies have refused to support the conservative People’s Party’s call for a no-confidence vote, but the pressure is building.

The mood outside PSOE’s headquarters was tense. Protesters gathered, shouting “Out! Out!” as senior party officials arrived. Some party members still hoped Sanchez’s reforms could cool public outrage, but others were not so sure.

Emiliano Garcia-Page, the Governor of Castile-La Mancha, described the situation as “one of the most serious crises since Spain returned to democracy.”

He added bluntly, “The leadership needs to understand that if it doesn’t offer an exit, if it doesn’t offer solutions, then it’s part of the problem.”

Spain’s Ruling Party Drowns in Harassment Scandal

As the Socialist Party’s troubles deepen, many Spaniards are now openly questioning the competence of their leaders. For a party already drowning in corruption cases, this latest harassment scandal is seen by many as yet another sign of total collapse.

Inside the party, some fear that this series of scandals may completely destroy public trust ahead of future elections. Outside, protesters are already making it clear that patience has run out.

For Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, what was meant to be a fresh start has quickly turned into a new nightmare. And now, many within his party are wondering how much longer they can withstand the political damage before everything falls apart.
