to change? Will they? Can they? Thank you. That is all from us for | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
this evening. It The single most remarkable | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
result last night was in Wales. Despite coming | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
a close second to Labour in the county, UKIP's leader says | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
it's his biggest win of the night. And on its third day around Wales | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
the baton pays a visit to the If that ignites their passion, it is | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
a brilliant thing. The UKIP leader Nigel Farage says | :00:25. | :00:50. | |
his party's single most remarkable achievement last night was coming | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
close to beating Labour in Wales. Labour topped the European | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
election poll by just 4,000 votes. It means both parties retain a Welsh | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
seat in the European parliament, as do the Conservatives and | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
Plaid Cymru. Intense faces at the main can't show | :01:04. | :01:18. | |
how tight it was. The UKIP candidate hoped he would top the poll. In the | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
end, he was still jubilant after sending shock waves by coming | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
second. Labours candidate insisted was the best ever Euro campaign. The | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
Tories and Plaid Cymru were both at risk of losing a seat. In the end, | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
relief as the four parties already representing Wales in Europe stay | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
the same. But look beyond that and there are big changes. Labour topped | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
the poll but it was short of votes required for the second seed that | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
the party wanted. See how close UKIP was to beating Labour. The | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
Conservatives have slipped back from five years ago. Meanwhile, Plaid | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
Cymru kept theirs after speculation they looked from rubble. As the BBC | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
results survey showed, Yupik picked up support in all parts of Wales. | :02:10. | :02:21. | |
UKIP topped the poll across Britain. For the party leader, it was still | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
highlight. The single most remarkable result last night was in | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
Wales, where UKIP was just a few thousand votes away from beating the | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
Labour Party in Wales. Dave and the Conservatives admit the clear | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
messages being sent to the parties. They claim their supporters will | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
return to them in general election. I really don't believe people in | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
Wales want the sort of policies UKIP are offering. They don't want to get | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
rid of the NHS, which is what UKIP are suggesting. They want to send a | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
message to the main political parties. It would be churlish to say | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
it wasn't a good night for UKIP. Only a third of the electorate | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
actually voted. The Lib Dems came in sixth, behind the Greens. We worked | :03:13. | :03:24. | |
very hard. Our members knocked on thousands of doors. We took on UKIP | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
as well. Those two things has enabled us to retain our feet. How | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
much has the political landscape in Wells changed as a result of what | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
happened here last night? Things will be very different in the | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
general election next year. One thing we do know now, and that is | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
that UKIP is more than capable of taking votes away from not just the | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
Tories, but across the political spectrum, and particularly from | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
Labour. How much of a blow was this for | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
Labour? They were hoping they would be able | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
to send to Welsh MEPs to Brussels. In the end, they were relieved to | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
topped the poll and be able to send one MEP. It is worth reflecting that | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
UKIP came either first or second across every council area, across | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
Wales last night. If there was a notion UKIP is some kind of English | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
phenomenon, beaming with the concerns in England, I think that | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
was put to bed last night with a lot of the concerns about immigration | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
clearly felt and shared in parts of Wales. The big question is what | :04:41. | :04:47. | |
impact will have in the general election. I think the response on | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
the main parties today was a real hope and expectation that while some | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
of their supporters may have flirted with UKIP, they will return to their | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
natural home in the general election next year. | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
Thank you. The Queen's Baton Relay continued | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
its journey through Wales today. It spent the day at the | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
Urdd Eisteddfod in Bala. Welcome to Bala, we are in the | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
foothills of the Berwyn mountains and people have enjoyed the great | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
weather as they explored the Maes. But there was no mistaking the main | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
attraction the baton relay kicked off the cultural festival with a | :05:22. | :05:29. | |
celebration of sporting achievement. Is moving at a gentler pace and he's | :05:30. | :05:43. | |
used to, you when Thomas swats the relay for the 20 x 400 metre | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
versions as he joined 19 young people from across the country to | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
have the facts on along. It is amazing. The people have seen it and | :05:53. | :06:01. | |
get the chance to touch it. A lot of kids get a bad rap. They are not | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
bad. Sometimes they just need that fire in the belly. These teenagers | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
have been chosen Fulgoni extra mile in anything from playing badminton | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
and netball to coach Crosby and swimming, as well as volunteering in | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
their local communities. Amazed. I could not believe it. The same with | :06:25. | :06:37. | |
me. I have been camping overnight but it has all been worth it. | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
Thousands of people from across Wales are showing of skills in | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
music, art and language. This is as much a showcase for young talent as | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
the Commonwealth games. It is a pleasure to support team Wales. It | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
gives opportunities for the athletes. The Commonwealth Matt | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
Scott made sure his arrival was noticed. It may be too went into the | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
games begin, but the build-up is well underway. The Commonwealth | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
button relay will hand over to Carmarthenshire tomorrow. Visitor | :07:16. | :07:27. | |
numbers are wrong on the same day last year. The patent might be | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
moving away, but a schools competition is happening here | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
tonight. Now after decades of searching, | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
the first and only moving footage It's been confirmed | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
by experts that this is the poet, circled on your screen now, | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
when he appeared as an extra in the feature film Pandora and the Flying | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
Dutchman on Pendine Sands in 1951. And we'll have much more | :07:49. | :07:57. | |
on that story tomorrow on Wales Today, and on the One Show | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
at 7 tomorrow evening. After a fairly warm bank holiday | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
Monday, is it going to last? We ended on a high but the weather | :08:07. | :08:19. | |
is going downhill a bit. No pressure taking charge. There will be a | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
little bit in the way of sunny spells in between showers. Tonight, | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
we have this band of rain making its way over the East. | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
Overnight temperatures of between seven and 12 Celsius, so a fairly | :08:36. | :08:49. | |
mild night. Showers or longer spells of rain. Tomorrow morning, that rain | :08:50. | :08:58. | |
band continues westwards. Once that clears, the showers get going from | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
the East. Some torrential downpours possible, so we could see thundery | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
outbreaks as well, with temperatures ranging between 12 and 15. Into | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
tomorrow, we will lose the intensity of those showers, but there is more | :09:16. | :09:25. | |
wet weather coming in. Wednesday is a bit of a miserable day. Cloudy for | :09:26. | :09:39. | |
all of us. Remaining unsettled as we head toward the end of the week. I | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
am hopeful we will see something more settled by the weekend. Here is | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
today's picture. That's the latest news from | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
across Wales. I'll be back with your late | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
update just after 10.30 tonight. Good evening. If I were to conduct a | :09:54. | :10:14. | |
straw poll about the weather events today, I suspect we would get a | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
split decision. There | :10:19. | :10:19. |
