Description

Today, we look at the resignation of Welsh First Minister, Vaughan Gething.

Just four months into the job, Vaughan Gething has quit his position as First Minister after four members of his cabinet resigned, calling for him to go.

Since taking over in March, the FM has faced criticism for accepting a campaign donation from a businessman convicted of environmental offences. He denies any wrongdoing, and says ‘my integrity matters, I have not compromised it.’ Adam and Chris discuss whether this is part of a wider pattern on instability in UK politics.
