Eluned Morgan has been confirmed as the new leader of Welsh Labour and is set to become the first female First Minister of Wales, succeeding Vaughan Gething, who resigned after just four months amid controversies regarding campaign donations and ministerial dismissals. Morgan, the current Welsh Health Minister, was the only candidate to stand for leadership, and her appointment is anticipated to stabilize the party following recent turmoil. The Welsh Parliament, or Senedd, may be recalled from recess for Morgan's confirmation, as she has garnered significant support from Labour politicians. While Morgan promises to unify the party, Plaid Cymru has called for a snap election, arguing that her leadership does not represent a genuine change. The Welsh Conservatives have dismissed these calls, emphasizing the need for stability until the next scheduled election in 2026. Morgan's political career includes a peerage, roles in the European Parliament, and serving as health secretary during the COVID-19 pandemic.
