SACKED minister Hannah Blythyn made a statement about her dismissal today, overshadowing the latest legislative programme for Wales.

The former social partnership minister’s statement came immediately before First Minister Vaughan Gething delivered his planned programme of government.

Ms Blythyn said: “I know that I can look all my colleagues that sit on these benches in the eye and say that I have never leaked or briefed to the media.”
