Andalusian PSOE Faces Leadership Challenge

Published: 2024-11-23

The internal opposition within the Andalusian Socialist Party (PSOE-A) is gaining momentum as critics call for a leadership change.

Prominent figures, including José Caballos and nearly 50 other former leaders, have publicly demanded a new direction for the party.

This movement is set to intensify after the upcoming Federal Congress in Seville, where Pedro Sánchez's leadership will be reaffirmed.

The critics argue that the current leadership under Juan Espadas has led to a negative cycle, with the party losing its historical hold on the Andalusian government.

They emphasize the need for a revitalized and participatory party to regain the trust of the progressive majority.

The call for change is supported by several provincial leaders, although Espadas still retains significant backing from key figures within the party.

The outcome of the Federal Congress may determine the future course of the PSOE-A.
