relationship between himself and the first minister. the first minister has always maintained that he has broken no ministerial rules and he has broken no rules at all and that he did not know about the criminal investigation that was looking into david neal s other companies when he was given this donation. the development this morning is that two labour members in the senedd are ill so they will not be voting today, which would mean he would lose this vote. labour have 30 of the 60 senedd seats, so for this no confidence vote to be passed and for there to be a vote of no confidence in the first minister, it would need 31 members to vote against the first minister. it is unclear at the moment if these two could vote remotely. they are able to, there are rules because it is a hybrid system, where members can vote remotely if required, but it is unclear they are unable to do so.
now he is en route for the d day commemoration. plenty of time to contemplate and communicate with other labour members because it is them he needs to come out in his support. there hasn t been a cabinet of chorus members here giving that vocal support for vaughan gething. he wasn t first choice to be first minister, it s hard right now to see just how long he has in thejob. the election campaign has seen a bitter row breaking out with the labour leader sir keir starmer accusing rishi sunak of lying after the prime minister made misleading claims in last night s tv debate about labour s tax plans. mr sunak had said that labour s policies would result in a £2,000 tax rise for every working family a figure he said had been worked out by impartial civil servants. but a top treasury official has said that it is not the case. in a moment, we ll look at how the conservatives arrived at that figure but first here s our political editor chris mason. 0n last night s tv debate,
fighting this together. the leader of the lady mack party in the uk has completely backed vaughan gething. this is a story that won t go away. not only has vaughan gething taken this from a man with criminal convictions for environmental offences but, as we have discovered, there are now more investigations into another company owned by the same businessman. both he and vaughan gething insists that they have done nothing illegal. vaughan gething has been cleared of abusing the ministerial code. there are plenty of things in the san senedd behind me with a vote of no confidence behind me who have been labour members and have been asking him to return the money once the senior labourfigure him to return the money once the senior labour figure offers to lend him £200,000 survey the money. labour only has a wafer thin majority, a working majority, in the senedd. i don t think it is going to happen because of the context of the general election. there is a lot of pressure on labour members
