Wales’ first minister Vaughan Gething resigns | BBC News


The first minister of Wales, Vaughan Gething, has announced his resignation, only four months after taking the job.

It comes after three of his Welsh government ministers and his top legal adviser released resignation statements, calling for him to stand down.

Since taking over in March, he has been embroiled in controversy, and has been dogged by questions over a £200,000 campaign donation from a businessman convicted of environmental offences.

In his resignation statement, he denied wrongdoing, adding: "I regret that the burden of proof is no longer an important commodity in the language of our politics."
