Puente's first message on his networks after the resignation... remembers Forges

The former Minister of Transport, Óscar Puente, has reacted on social networks a few hours after announcing his resignation from office with a cartoon by Forges about the responsibility of politicians. "Today is a day to remember the great Forges," he wrote in

The cartoon illustrates the idea about the differences between the actions of some politicians and others, although Puente did not add any additional explanation to the message.

The message comes after Puente announced his departure from the Government this Tuesday during his appearance before the Permanent Deputation of Congress due to the Urda and Adamuz railway accidents. The socialist explained that he was leaving office due to a question of "political dignity, coherence and empathy with the victims" and maintained that a Transport Minister could not continue after two accidents of that severity in less than a year.

Puente assured that he had made the decision to resign on the same day as the Urda accident, which occurred on October 28, although he kept it silent while the consequences of the accident were being managed. He also announced that he will not head the PSOE list for Valladolid nor will he participate in the elections on November 29.
