Probably when he said he was the first black leader of a European country. I have a mate who is black who says you can’t call yourself black if you have a white welsh father (like VG has)
I think Gething now refers himself as having black heritage rather than just black .
I would say he’s mixed race but who cares ?
he has proven himself to be corrupt though, he’s been found out, but it’s ok as welsh Labour have asked the previous Welsh Labour leader carwyn Jones to do a ‘full investigation’ into it all
Gerhin is not a nice man . Sir Kier is best to distance himself from WAG.
That's not playing the race card though is it ?
The term playing the race card is almost exclusively used by white people to describe a black ...or Asian....persons behaviour which in the opinion of the white person is trying to do things like make excuses for doing a crap job , being arrested , being discriminated against , not being good enough to play for England or Wales, not being interviewed, getting bullied etc......on the fact they are black
It's pretty low form
Whilst it appears VG isn't very good it seems that it is others in the labour group who have brought up their opinion that he's being treated badly because of his race
If there's a quote out there from him saying I am under pressure because of my race and a white Welsh Labour or Conservative minister wouldn't get this hassle ......then fair enough
I dont think many people think he's being treated badly because of his race but I also don't think he's responsible for any statements saying he thinks he is
I see the narrative has changed now. See: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crgg0035dd0o
This a quote from the article:
Earlier on Saturday, a Labour MS said: "Vaughan Gething and his supporters made the case that the attacks against him were racially driven and that he was being held to a higher standard than others."
The MS added: "His supporters remain loyal but the group is still split."
However, an individual in the Welsh government itself strongly denied that Mr Gething had made such comments, and said they had instead come from Labour Members of Senedd (MSs).
He appears to be distancing himself from the original comment, so who really knows the truth?
The farcical way in which the anonymous complainents ......who are complaining about possible racism and may ...or may not ...include the first minister ....are giving snippets to the press is a mirror of the whole situation since VG was appointed
Jesus h christ ......if you will pardon the expression GB
Jesus Christ is that the same person as Jesus H Christ?
A bit like harry corbet and harry H corbet , if you don’t know them go and look it up!
