Labour’s Vaughan Gething said people across Wales are calling for a change of government as Welsh parties geared up for the general election.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak ended general election speculation on Wednesday, saying voters will go to the polls on 4 July.
His party leader in the Senedd, Conservative Andrew RT Davies said Labour’s record in the Welsh government is a “stark warning to the rest of the United Kingdom”.
Meanwhile Plaid Cymru said only they will put Wales first.
The election is the first since a major boundary review which will cut the number of MPs in Wales from 40 to 32.
All seats will see their boundaries change, with the exception of Ynys Môn.
At the last election, Labour won most seats with 22, but the Conservatives earned their largest haul since the Thatcher years, with eight seats.
Led by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, the party won seats in traditional Labour areas in the north East and Bridgend.
Plaid Cymru meanwhile held four seats.
