Vaughan Gething won the Welsh Labour Party leadership contest, and is set to become the first Black leader of Wales' semi-autonomous government.

• Gething is currently Welsh economy minister.
• He beat Education Minister Jeremy Miles in a race to replace First Minister Mark Drakeford.
• Drakeford announced late last year he would step down once a replacement was chosen.
• Gething, 50, won 51.7% of the votes cast by members of the party and affiliated trade unions, and Miles 48.3%.
• Once he is confirmed next week by the Welsh parliament, the Senedd, where Labour is the largest party, Gething will become the fifth first minister since Wales' national legislature was established in 1999.
