Gething's budget at risk as Lib Dems join parties set to vote against minority government
First Minister of Wales Vaughan Gething speaks at the launch of Labour's six steps for change in Wales at the Priory Centre in Abergavenny, while on the General Election campaign trail, May 30, 2024

The Welsh First Minister’s Labour Party is one short of a majority in the Senedd after controversy over donations to his leadership campaign led to the collapse of its co-operation agreement with Plaid Cymru.

He has refused to resign after losing a no-confidence vote in the Senedd earlier this month.
