The leader of Wales’ semi-autonomous government is facing a no-confidence vote in the Welsh parliament
The leader of Wales’ semi-autonomous government faces a no-confidence vote in the Welsh parliament on Wednesday, but does not plan to resign if he loses, his party said. The opposition Conservatives called the vote of no confidence in Labour First Minister Vaughan Gething after weeks of criticism of his leadership. Gething’s Labour Party holds 30 of the 60 seats in Wales' parliament, the Senedd, and two Labour lawmakers were off sick on Wednesday.
Howells said Gething did not plan to resign if he lost the vote, calling it a Conservative “gimmick.” Gething, the son of a Welsh father and a Zambian mother, made history in March when he was elected to head the Cardiff-based administration, becoming the first Black leader of a government in the U.K.
