Sumar has started a process to gather “information” about the “statements” that have been made this week about Íñigo Errejón, mainly on social networks, as announced by the group in a statement. This action has been made public just an hour after the deputy and parliamentary spokesperson for Sumar submitted his resignation this Thursday.
The training has not specified what type of information it was referring to, although Errejón’s political withdrawal has occurred after two days in which various anonymous comments collected by journalist Cristina Fallarás on social networks had pointed to alleged humiliating or incompatible sexual behavior. with the feminist principles of “a deputy from Madrid”, which some had interpreted as referring to Errejón. In his statement, Errejón suggests that he has fallen into “toxic” and patriarchal behavior. “I have reached the limit of contradiction between character and person”, he adds. The deputy record was delivered by a member of Errejón’s team early in the afternoon at the Congress registry.
“This morning, Íñigo Errejón sent the Sumar executive the statement that he had just made public, presenting his irrevocable resignation as a member of the executive, deputy and spokesperson for the Plurinational Parliamentary Group of Sumar. The executive of Movimiento Sumar met immediately and, after having listened to the reasons given by Íñigo Errejón, has unanimously accepted his resignation,” states the text released by the group. “At Sumar we aspire to build a feminist society and politics and that requires a firm commitment in all areas,” they add.
