The former Secretary of Organization and Deputy of the PSOE, Santos Cerdán, who announced this that resigned from all his positions as a result of the revelations of the devastating UCO report, has not yet presented the resignation of his seat ,. Cerdán had until 18.00 on Friday to formalize this procedure in the Registry of the Congress of Deputies, which is also open on Saturdays between 10.00 and 14.00, but only telematically and Cerdán does not have the electronic signature enabled in Congress.
Cerdán, who communicated his resignation in a statement, did not specify when he was going to leave the deputy. However, . A parliamentarian justified that this Friday was a day of open days in Congress. “Santos will not have wanted to meet hundreds of people,” he argued. “I grab that and that will deliver the minutes discreetly next week,” he concludes. You can still do it this Saturday, although not having enabled your electronic signature the resignation will not be considered valid until Monday, when the office opens again in its usual schedule.
The delay in managing his decline has created some confusion among several socialist positions consulted. “We expected that I would have delivered today [viernes] The act. We do not want to put ourselves in the worst, but even if you do not want to think that Ábalos did the same and went to the mixed group, “says a deputy.” I do not want to imagine that scenario, it would be the final lunge to the party, “adds another member of the socialist bench in Congress.” Let’s see if it turns out now that it does not. It would be the last betrayal. The president said he should never have trusted him … I hope [Santos] You have not changed your mind, ”a territorial leader crosses the fingers.
Precisely, this Friday the magistrate Leopoldo Puente has accepted the personation in the Ábalos case of Cerdán and has asked if he persists in his decision to leave the deputy’s act and, if so, if he will do so before or after his summons on the next day 25. Some of the members of the party consulted fear, in fact, that the non -delivery of the minutes obeys a legal strategy. “Look that yesterday I thought it was rare for him to leave him, he will have already talked to his lawyer,” warns a senator. “The scene in Congress can be Dantesque. Two secretaries of organization of the PSOE sitting together in the mixed group would be brutal,” warns. “I intuit that your defense has recommended you to remain afraid. Of course, if you do not deliver it, this is further complicated. I hope you give it on Monday!” Add another deputy.
The Sumar Movement Party, a partner of the Socialists in the Government, has asked in its account of the Bluesky Social Network that Cerdán already delivers his deputy “without decks of maneuvers” and has urged the PSOE to do “everything in his hand” in this regard.
