Welsh politicians jockey to replace Gething as First Minister
The sign for the Senedd, the Welsh parliament building in Cardiff
WELSH politicians jockeyed for position to replace Vaughan Gething as First Minister but concern was expressed that Wales faced an industrial crisis as ministerial vacancies remained unfilled today.
Four political heavyweights stepped down on Tuesday in a co-ordinated move to force Mr Gething’s resignation.
But the posts remained vacant late today as Senedd members waited for the outgoing First Minister to make appointments for the summer, as the recess starts this week.
