Vaughan Gething defiant after losing vote of no confidence in leadership

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

The First Minister of Wales, Vaughan Gething, struck a defiant tone after losing a vote of no-confidence in his leadership. The motion, brought by the Welsh Conservatives, is not binding. Gething is embroiled in a row over donations to his leadership campaign, including £200,000 from a company run by a man who was convicted twice for environmental offences. On both sides of the English channel soldiers and leaders took part in a day of commemoration ahead of the 80th anniversary of D-Day on Thursday. And we speak to three women who want to return to Parliament at the election, on what's drawn them back to Westminster.
