Rhun ap Iorwerth slams the election of Vaughan Gething
Leader of Plaid Cymru, Rhun ap Iorwerth, makes a speech on the steps of the Senedd as farmers protested over planned changes to farming subsidies, February 28, 2024

PLAID CYMRU leader Rhun ap Iorwerth slammed the election of Vaughan Gething today over alleged voting stitch-ups with unions, scrutiny ducking and “dodgy” donations.

He said: “I repeat the congratulations I extended to Vaughan Gething on his election victory last weekend, but the only newness with Vaughan Gething is the fact that he’s only been in post for two days.”

Mr ap Iorwerth was scathing about Mr Gething’s election campaign.
