Just days after Joana Martínez was forced to resign as party number three in Salt, Girona, for the xenophobic Plataforma per Catalunya, PxC, because she was having a relationship with a sub-Saharan man, now another councillor has resigned.
Carles Bonet, number one on the party’s candidate list in Salt says ‘I’m going before they throw me out’. It comes as he has revealed firstly that he is gay, not popular with the right wing party, and that he too has a boyfriend from the Dominican Republic.
Bonet said that the party had become too radical with immigration and went as far as to say that there are party members with Nazi tendencies.
The two resigned councillors will keep their seats as independents. ‘From now we can work with more freedom and we will vote for the good of the town and not against human rights’.
The PxC obtained 66,000 votes at the last municipal elections in Cataluña, some 2.3% if the total votes. They have a total of 67 councillors.
