Watch: Welsh First Minister Vaughan Gething faces a motion of no confidence

The Welsh First Minister Vaughan Gething will face a motion of no confidence tabled by the Welsh Conservatives.

The vote's been called after concerns were raised, including by some within Welsh Labour, around a £200,000 donation to Mr Gething's leadership campaign from a company whose owner was previously convicted of environmental offences.

Secondly, text messages from a ministerial group chat from during the pandemic were leaked last month, in which Mr Gething appeared to suggest his intention to delete messages.

This has prompted accusations from some opposition members that he may have misled the COVID Inquiry, but Mr Gething denies the messages were related to Welsh government business.

After the Welsh Conservatives speak, Plaid Cymru will debate HS2 funding ahead of the no confidence vote.
