Wales is set to get its first female First Minister after Eluned Morgan was chosen to lead the governing Welsh Labour Party yesterday. Ms Morgan will take charge following a confirmation vote in Wales’ parliament, the Senedd. Ms Morgan succeeds First Minister Vaughan Gething, who stepped down last week as party leader amid acrimony and a campaign donation scandal. She is currently the Welsh Health Minister. Wales, which has a population of about three million, is one of four parts of the United Kingdom, along with England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. The First Minister of Wales is the leader of the Welsh Government and keeper of the Welsh Seal.
