Vaughan Gething To Become Wales' First Black Leader by MindHacker9009(m): 1:16am On Mar 17
Vaughan Gething is set to be Wales' next first minister after narrowly winning the Welsh Labour leadership election with 51.7% of the vote.

Mr Gething, who will become the first black person to lead Wales, beat his rival Jeremy Miles, who took 48.3%.

He was congratulated by UK Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

But Plaid Cymru expressed "deep concerns" over donations from a controversial waste company in Cardiff.

Mr Gething's campaign was marred by headlines about £200,000 of cash from Dauson Environmental Group, owned by a man that had twice prosecuted for environmental offences

Welsh government minister and Miles supporter, Julie James called for a review of how leadership campaigns would be run in the future.

In Nigeria today, before person attain a very high position or get appointment in a place like CBN, that person must come from a high profile family, or the parent must be former Minister, former Governor, former this, former that. Otherwise nothing for that person

But here the son of a vet and chicken 🐔 farmer is now ruling the country. Can you beat that? The vet was even described as a Welsh economic migrant (a japarian).

Society that places premium value on Merit, irrespective of Ethnicity. 👍

Unlike my country where some dimwits brag a particular ethnicity will never become president.

Indians are very toxic and they don't change. It's unfortunate they will bring along with their funny characters into work places and politics.

Simple! It's because his white Welsh father got married to a black Zambian woman. The offspring is the black man being celebrated as new Welsh leader today.

White + Black = Black

In reality, he is of mixed-race, but is recognised globally as a black man!

Because black is a dominant gene! Anything mixed with black is black

Megan markle for instance, her father is white yet that didn’t stop a thing, even her son archie with Prince harry is already a subject of racism
