Episode description

Vaughan Gething is one of the most well-known faces in Welsh Government, not least due to his role as Minister for Health during the Covid-19 pandemic, which saw the profile of the Welsh Government and devolution itself thrust into the public consciousness as the four nations of the UK each defined their own response to the crisis. Now Minister for the Economy, Vaughan is once more dealing with a crisis, as the cost of living skyrockets and inflation is at its highest for a generation. We discuss the journey from a newspaper round in Dorset to a leading role in government, Brexit, devolution, and what a future Labour-led UK Government would mean for Wales.
