PSOE Member Leire Díez Resigns Amidst Party Investigation
Leire Díez, a prominent member of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), resigned from the party on June 3rd, 2025, following a two-hour meeting at the party's headquarters in Madrid's Ferraz building. The resignation came after the party opened an investigation into Diez's actions. Footage from the scene shows Diez surrounded by reporters as she left the building. In a brief statement, Diez indicated that her actions were related to a journalistic investigation. A reporter for Informativos Telecinco, present outside Ferraz, added that Diez had met with the party's Secretary of Organization, Santos Cerdán, before announcing her resignation. This event highlights the ongoing tensions within the PSOE and underscores the importance of transparency in political affairs. Díez's decision to resign, rather than face potential disciplinary action, suggests a desire to avoid further controversy.
