A farmer who backed Brexit and said it meant breakfast - Tory assembly leader Andrew RT Davies quits.

Rhun ap Iorwerth says Alun Cairns is reinventing the role of Welsh Secretary as "governor general-in-Wales".

Interim leader of the Welsh Conservative group, Paul Davies says colleagues in his group were disappointed by the lagoon decision but "I appreciate that government ministers have a duty to ensure that the figures stack up.

"It's clear they felt unable to do that with this project".

He says it is "only appropriate that we take the opportunity to be a little more objective and recognise some of the positive outcomes delivered by the Secretary of State for Wales".

He cites the Severn Toll removal, the fiscal framework, and regional finance deals for Swansea and Cardiff.

Plaid Cymru's Simon Thomas says he didn't expect to be having two votes of confidence in Conservatives in Wales in one day, referring also to Andrew RT Davies' resignation as leader of the Conservative group in the Welsh Assembly.

He says manifesto commitments should not be "broken willy-nilly".

"If there are two manifesto commitments in your manifesto for election for which you are then the cabinet secretary responsible for, do you then carry on?" he asks.

"What the Secretary of State has robbed us of is not one project, but the start of a whole new technology, the start of a new beginning for Swansea and for Wales."

Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns now faces an unprecedented vote of no-confidence in the assembly.

Plaid Cymru tabled the motion after the UK Government failed to support plans for the Swansea Bay Tidal Lagoon.

The motion, if it did pass, would be symbolic. AMs cannot remove Mr Cairns, who is not a member of the assembly.

• Taxpayers loaned £2.5m for tidal lagoon
• How the tidal lagoon numbers crunched
• £1.3bn tidal lagoon project thrown out

Plaid Cymru's motion proposes that the assembly "no longer has confidence in the secretary of state for Wales to deliver major infrastructure projects, following the decision of the Westminster government not to support the Swansea Bay tidal lagoon".

It adds that the assembly "has no confidence in the post of the secretary of state for Wales and believes it should be abolished and replaced with a properly constituted UK council of ministers with shared and equal decision-making powers".

The motion to suspend Standing Orders to allow the no confidence motion in Alun Cairns to be considered, is passed with 35 for, 4 abstentions and 9 against.

There's a vote in the Siambr imminently on a motion to suspend Standing Orders to allow a motion of no-confidence in the Welsh Secretary to be considered.

Asked by UKIP group leader Caroline Jones what progress is being made in reducing the budget deficits of local health boards, Health Secretary Vaughan Gething replies that "overspending by health boards is unacceptable, and the Welsh Government is providing targeted intervention support to boards in deficit".

UKIP's Michelle Brown says there is a "distinct lack of consistency" in local authorities' school transport strategies, adding "it's all a bit of a hotchpotch".
