It is “odds on” that a no-confidence motion to force the first minister’s resignation, will be brought forward by opposition members in the Senedd following recent events, the Conservative Senedd leader has said.

The comments, by Andrew RT Davies, were in response to Vaughan Gething’s sacking of a minister on Thursday alleging she leaked text messages to the media, which she denies.

It also follows months of turmoil in Welsh Labour over controversial donations to Mr Gething’s leadership campaign.

Mr Davies said his party “will have conversations with other parties” in Cardiff Bay to see the level of support for a no-confidence motion.

    I thought that might have been the case as well, certainly down the south west. I’m from the other south originally and I still can’t get my head around having David Davies in office (at the risk of conflating MPs and AMs). Lots of parodies, tropes, and long standing gags - but I’ve never really understood why.

    I’ve spoken with him on a couple of occasions and he’s a genuine and nice enough bloke, but we couldn’t be further apart on 90% of issues.
