Íñigo Errejón Resigns from Politics Amid Gender-Based Violence Allegations

Íñigo Errejón, co-founder of Podemos and spokesperson for the Sumar party, has announced his resignation from politics amid allegations of gender-based violence. Errejón cited the need to distance himself from the toxic environment of political life, which he claims has negatively impacted his mental and physical health. He expressed that he has reached the limit of the contradiction between his public persona and personal beliefs, stating, 'I will always remain active and committed, but for me this stage of institutional politics is coming to an end.' The resignation follows an anonymous accusation of inappropriate behavior that has prompted Sumar to investigate the claims.
