Fellesforbundet: LO-topp brøt ikke etiske regler

LO's congress will occur next week in Oslo to elect a new leader following Peggy Hessen Følsvik's planned departure.
Jørn Eggum had been the leading candidate but withdrew after controversy involving a past relationship with union official Merethe Solberg.
Fellesforbundet's board still supports Eggum, stating he did not break ethical rules despite criticism about not disclosing his past relationship earlier.
Eggum wrote on Facebook, "I have acted unwisely" and said he did not want his mistakes to overshadow the LO congress's important work.
Eggum's withdrawal leaves the election committee working to find a new LO leader, while LO's leadership for the next four years will proceed without him.
