Overview

  • Torró presided over the PSPV national committee on July 18 in Valencia, where Xàtiva mayor Roger Cerdà was elected committee president to solidify regional party unity.
  • She has streamlined her office around deputies Borja Cabezón and Anabel Mateos after a planned appointment for Francisco Salazar was withdrawn following misconduct allegations.
  • Torró has reframed PSOE’s agenda toward ideological confrontation, accusing the PP of following Vox’s ultranationalist rhetoric and exploiting immigration for political gain.
  • In her most recent remarks she publicly reproached PP leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo for remaining silent on the indictment of ex-minister Cristóbal Montoro over alleged legislative-for-hire schemes.
  • Her consolidation of organizational control follows high-profile resignations and pretrial detentions within the PSOE that prompted Pedro Sánchez to order external audits to shore up party credibility.
