Última hora de la actualidad política, en directo | Rebeca Torró será la nueva portavoz del PSOE tras la renuncia de Montse Mínguez

The Secretary of Organization for the PSOE, Rebeca Torró, will assume the role of the party's new spokesperson following Montse Mínguez's resignation on Friday due to controversy surrounding her partner's real estate business. The federal executive approved this change earlier today in anticipation of the federal committee meeting scheduled in Fuenlabrada.

Cristina Narbona, the party's president, will take over the areas of studies and programs, which Mínguez had also been responsible for. The position of secretary general for the party's parliamentary group will be assumed by Javier Cendón, the provincial secretary for León. The PSOE will ratify its lists for the November 29 elections at their Federal Committee meeting, concluding with a rally by President Pedro Sánchez, the candidate for re-election.

The Front Broad presents its head of list for the upcoming general elections and their new political project. Minister of Culture Ernest Urtasun will be the second-in-command for the Front Broad's Barcelona candidacy, which, as usual, will control the Commons, under the electoral banner Comuns-Front Ampli.
