Vaughan Gething Resigns as Welsh First Minister Amid Scandal

Vaughan Gething, the first black man elected as Welsh Labour leader, has announced his resignation as first minister of Wales after 118 days in office. His tenure was marred by controversy, including the sacking of a cabinet minister and questionable campaign donations, leading to the collapse of a co-operation agreement with Plaid Cymru and a non-binding vote of no confidence. Several cabinet members resigned, prompting Gething to step down, acknowledging that a period of reflection and renewal under his leadership was not possible.
