Narbona and three other members of the main PSOE organs will lead the party to the Federal Committee
five days after the publication of the UCO report and after the resignation of Santos Cerdán, the Federal Executive Committee of the PSOE is meeting on Monday to decide on the next steps of the party. The PSOE leader, Pedro Sánchez, is scheduled to appear in Ferraz by 13:00, although party sources have already advanced several new developments.
Until the Federal Committee to be held on 5 July to elect Cerdán's replacement, it will be the responsibility of a transition team to take over the party's Secretariat of Organization. PSOE will be led by four members: party President Cristina Narbona; PSOE Manager Ana Maria Fuentes; Secretary of Labour, Social Economy and Autonomous Work Montse Minguez; and Secretary of Democratic Action and Transparency Borja Cabezon.
Another novelty advanced by the party is that the PSOE Federal Executive Committee has decided to expel José Luis Ábalos from the party, 15 months after the file was opened to the former Secretary of Organization and former Minister of Transport.
Santos Cerdán will deliver his Deputy's Act today.
Meanwhile, the former Secretary of the Organization of the PSOE, Santos Cerdán, will resign his Minutes as Member of Parliament today. Last week, Supreme Magistrate Leopoldo Puente asked the Socialist militant whether he was continuing his intention to leave his Minutes of Deputy. In a letter sent today, Cerdán stated that he will resign his Minutes today and will therefore cease to be a Member.
Before that, however, Cerdán asked to be discharged from the PSOEthis morning.
Sanchez will meet Yolanda Díaz.
Sources in the summary have indicated that the President of the Spanish Government will meet this afternoon with the second Vice-President, Yolanda Díaz, who personally requested an urgent meeting of the governing coalition last Thursday, when the UCO report was made public, but since then they have not met.
We can't go to Sanchez's meeting.
In addition to meeting with Yolanda Díaz, Sanchez has announced that he will hold meetings with the parliamentary groups to discuss the current political situation, although Podemos has already advanced that they will not attend the meeting.
"We will not participate in a face washing operation of a corrupt party," Spokesman Pablo Fernández said at a press conference at the party headquarters.
