Vaughan Gething, the first Black leader of the Welsh government, faced a non-binding vote of no confidence.

The vote followed criticism over a controversial donation and accusations of dismissing a minister.

The vote was narrowly against him, with a tally of 29-27.

Despite the vote, Gething has refused to resign, citing his dedication to serving Wales.

The cooperation agreement between Labour and Plaid Cymru has collapsed, weakening Gething's authority.

Gething challenged his opponents to table a formal no-confidence motion and defended his integrity.

Questions about Gething's judgment and leadership persist within both his party and the opposition.

The situation underscores divisions within Welsh Labour and raises concerns about the scrutiny faced by people of color in leadership.
