police operation across the UK has resulted in the arrest of up to 600 | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
suspected paedophiles. Welcome to Wales Today. Our top | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
story: A new ?1 billion motorway, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
a new road around Newport, I work 8-4 because if I finished | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
at five I would never get home to see the children. Hopefully, I can | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
work 9-5 again. This is where the Welsh Government | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
want the new road to be built but environmental campaigners and some | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
of Labour's own AMs are furious. A scout leader, | :00:23. | :00:41. | |
a foster carer and an ex-police officer among 59 people arrested | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
as part of a UK-wide operation A week before the Commonwealth Games | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
800 metre runner Gareth Warburton is suspended | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
after failing a drugs test. The Holy Grail, the cup used by | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
Jesus Christ in the Last Supper. And pilgrims have travelled here | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
for hundreds of years to see this priceless relic now | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
the police are looking for it too. A new ?1 billion motorway for Wales | :01:06. | :01:14. | |
has been announced tonight. It's the Welsh Government's solution | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
to improving congestion Making the announcement, the | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
Economy Minister Edwina Hart said But opponents say there are cheaper | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
options, Our economics correspondent | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
Sarah Dickins reports. It was more than 50 years ago that | :01:31. | :01:46. | |
the M4 was wheeled into Wales with its tunnels and carriageways. Before | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
the last two decades its congestion has become more intense and has been | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
lively debate about upgrading it. Last September plans went to | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
consultation with these three rooms look at in detail. The most | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
expensive was the one you have black fruit and that is the one that has | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
been chosen. After considering the responses, the environmental report | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
which accompanies the draft plan consultation, I have decided to | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
adopt the plan which includes a new section of motorway being built | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
between junctions 23 and 29. We reclassify the M4. We provide | :02:26. | :02:34. | |
cycling friendly infrastructure providing walking friendly | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
infrastructure. The Liberal Democrats and Plaid Cymru have | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
opposed the loos have -- as have for Labour ministers. In looking at the | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
environmental considerations which are few concerns to me, I'll be | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
planning for the long-term as we have been talking about in the | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
well-being and future generations built or are we making a short-term | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
decision that doesn't look at the long-term environmental | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
consequences? The argument is it is needed to get Wales moving. It will | :03:07. | :03:14. | |
attract as says. Go compare in place more than 200 workers alongside the | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
M4 on the western edge of Newport. Most of them can view of the | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
motorway. Congestion affects their business. We have people coming in | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
late because of it. Breakdowns and all the rest of it. We have to send | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
people home early. On a selfish level, it'll make things easier for | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
us. More practically for future employees, it means that it'll be | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
easier to attract talent here. There is always an economic argument this | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
isn't the best way to improve the Welsh economy. That is the evidence | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
whatsoever that the road will improve the economy of South Wales. | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
The problems of South Wales are complex, is about inequality. | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
Building a large new road may seem like an attractive solution that it | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
is the big boys toy that doesn't address the problems. Its villages | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
like this on the outskirts of Newport that'll be effected when | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
they start new road. There are concerns what kind of impact it | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
could have on the environment. It is a beautiful countryside around here. | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
I don't think it should be spoiled. Depends on what people want. | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
Personally, we don't want to come around here. It is an area of Wales | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
which is unique in terms of the landscape and the area. Their RS | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
species which live there. It be damaging and this is without going | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
down the route of climate change impact. Of course, this announcement | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
comes one week after the Welsh Government unveiled its future | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
generations built. If that becomes law this M4 Project will have to | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
prove it isn't just good for transport but for Wales in the | :05:02. | :05:02. | |
widest of sensors. Let's talk to our political editor, | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
Nick Servini. There will always be opposition to | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
any new road but across the political spectrum, | :05:07. | :05:08. | |
that's quite unusual? It is. From a number of Labour | :05:09. | :05:20. | |
backbencher is having it shouldn't come as any surprise. This is the | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
single biggest capital project carried out by the Welsh Government | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
since the start of devolution. It was announced after four o'clock on | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
the last day before the summer break. Even the Conservatives raised | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
their eyebrows. In also was announced, a matter of days before, | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
a cross-party committee was due to report and is looking at this issue. | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
As you rightly point out, there is acknowledgement it was always going | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
to have opposition. One of the biggest challenges politically is to | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
meet this accusation that about half ?1 billion of road money will blow | :05:58. | :06:10. | |
the budget on this one scheme. It is meeting this accusation from other | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
parts of Wales. What will the Welsh Government have to do to win | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
support? It isn't often that a Minister Mac are doing a heart | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
agrees with the Prime Minister but that is what she has done. The M4 | :06:23. | :06:29. | |
had its foot on the neck of the Welsh economy. She has come out in | :06:30. | :06:36. | |
support of that. You first of all is persuade people she represents | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
businesses and industry and can win the job 's argument that this will | :06:44. | :06:44. | |
create employment. Our environment correspondent Iolo | :06:45. | :06:45. | |
ap Dafydd is in Newport, not far from where | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
the new road will be built. Iolo this will have a big impact | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
on the area? It will have a big environmental | :06:51. | :07:00. | |
impacts. It'll have a big social impact as well. This area behind | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
me, it'll impact them and all the way around the south of Newport. The | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
elemental impact, Adrian Hart said she had considered that. -- | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
environmental impact. Friends of the Earth have said this will trash the | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
Welsh environment along the Gwent levels. There are four areas of | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
special scientific interest here. The river is an area of | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
conservation. There will be a new crossing across the river to take | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
this relief road down the south of Newport. Natural resource is Wales | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
have echoed what we heard in the report. They say there is concern | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
about is pollution, damage to sensitive areas, water quality, a | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
greater flooding risk is not a landfill sites will have to be moved | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
and one last thought, there will be a public enquiry given the magnitude | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
of the scheme they could be cause for a judicial review. | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
A scout leader, a foster carer, an ex-police officer | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
and a social service manager are among 59 people arrested in Wales | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
The arrests were part of a UK wide operation targeting people accessing | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
indecent images of children online. Caroline Evans reports. | :08:16. | :08:25. | |
As crime goes online, so at the detectives. Working on intelligence | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
from the National Crime Agency for six months officers in Wales have | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
been closing in on suspected paedophiles. We arrested 51 people, | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
search their properties and seized their computer equipment and any | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
other electronic devices where they may have been storing child abuse | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
images. Across Wales, 30 arrests were made in the South Wales force | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
area, 14", eight in North Wales and seven in Dyfed Powys Police among | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
them a foster carer, a Scout leader, a former police officer and the | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
social services manager. Two of the 59: The sex offenders register, the | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
rest had not come to the attention of the police before. Was there any | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
sense this was co-ordinated? Paedophile ring? We didn't see of | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
that in southern Wales. Obviously, we have gathered a lot of | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
intelligence, a lot of images and that analytical work is to who is in | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
connection with who is ongoing. Some of the images being viewed and | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
passed the images being viewed and passed around. Some were on what | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
became known as the dark web. At the high-tech police unit at present he | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
explained to me what this means. The dark web is website that I'm on the | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
Internet but talented and indexed by the normal search engines. They can | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
be accessed by bespoke software and search engines. It is believed that | :09:59. | :10:08. | |
kind of hide your identity. But there are methods available to us | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
that can identify and locate those offenders. The police said today | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
that two of the people who were arrested during the course of this | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
operation have since taken their own lives. 12 people have been charged | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
with either possessing orders to beating indecent material. The rest | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
are awaiting decisions from the Crown Prosecution Service. Officers | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
involved in this case they their actions have helped protect 58 | :10:37. | :10:37. | |
children. The SAS officer in charge | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
of choosing new recruits has told an inquest all risk can't be | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
eliminated, after a Royal Marine Ashley Hicks fell 100 feet | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
down a gorge in Snowdonia. The Navy say a number | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
of lessons have been learned. The coroner at Caernarfon recorded | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
a verdict of accidental death. Unemployment in Wales has fallen by | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
6,000 in the three months to May. The number of people out of work is | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
now 96 thousand, with the rate of unemployment remaining at 6.6%, | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
better than the rest of the UK. A man accused | :11:10. | :11:17. | |
of beating his girlfriend's baby to death while babysitting, | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
says he can't explain the injuries. Michael Pearce, from Nelson | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
near Caerphilly, admitted being in sole charge of six-week-old | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
Alfie Sullock last August A six-week-old baby boy that was | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
said to have rarely cried, who was allegedly beaten to death | :11:30. | :11:42. | |
by his mother's boyfriend. The prosecution says this man, | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
Michael Pearce, repeatedly hit Alfie with a shoe and plastic bottle | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
causing extensive brain damage. At the start of his defence today, | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
Michael Pearce said he left the room Alfie was in for no more | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
than 30 seconds and when he returned He said he checked Alfie | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
and administered mouth to mouth Paramedics were called to a house | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
on this street in Nelson at 9:11pm. Four minutes before, Michael Pearce | :12:13. | :12:19. | |
had sent a text to Alfie?s mother Alfie was taken to this hospital | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
in Merthyr Tydfil before being transferred to | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
the University Hospital of Wales The jury has been shown photos | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
of him with bruising Today, Michael Pearce was asked | :12:35. | :12:41. | |
if he could explain anything he did He denied shaking or slapping Alfie | :12:42. | :12:47. | |
or hitting him with a bottle or He said he didn't pick up | :12:48. | :12:55. | |
anything and didn't do anything. Michael Pearce denies murder | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
and the case continues. Much more to come | :13:01. | :13:09. | |
before seven o'clock. Airbus lands ?35 billion | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
of new contracts which means And some hot and tropical | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
weather for the coming days. A member of the Wales team | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
for the Commonwealth Games has been suspended from competing | :13:23. | :13:32. | |
after failing a drugs test. 800 metre runner Gareth Warburton | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
has been charged with an anti-doping offence, just a week before | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
the start of the Glasgow Games. Let's talk to our sports | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
reporter Ashleigh Crowter. Gareth Warburton is | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
an experienced international He ran at the 2012 Olympics, | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
and in the next fortnight he was due to be competing in Glasgow | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
in what would have been His face was actually used | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
on the front cover of the programme for last night's | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
Welsh Athletics international. But now he will miss the Games as | :14:02. | :14:03. | |
he's been suspended by UK Athletics from all competitions after being | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
charged with 'anti-doping rule violations' that basically means | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
that testers have found a prohibited substance in a sample taken | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
from Gareth Warburton, Any reaction from Gareth Warburton | :14:14. | :14:22. | |
himself? He's issued a statement in | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
which he says the failed test came And he says he has never knowingly | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
taken any banned substance, arguing that during | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
his whole career he has always been He goes on to say that he recognises | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
that responsibility for the situation lies with him and he says | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
he'll work with the anti-doping authorities to co-operate fully with | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
the legal process. He ends | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
by apologising that he won't be able to join Team Wales in Glasgow and | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
wishes his team-mates all the best. It's certainly really disappointing | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
news for Team Wales who've now lost Of course this case is very | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
different to those of Non Stanford, Becky James and Helen Jenkins who | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
all withdrew because of injury. But losing an athlete to | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
an anti-doping violation is not the sort of headline Team Wales | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
would have wanted, The way the NHS in Wales measures | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
death rates doesn't give an accurate picture of quality and safety, | :15:10. | :15:16. | |
according to an independent review. Professor Stephen Palmer of Cardiff | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
University examined the current system, after above-expected rates | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
were found at six Welsh hospitals. His review however did conclude | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
there should be further work to understand why there's been | :15:30. | :15:32. | |
a rise in mortality at Glangwili We need, | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
and Wales is ahead of the game on this, we need to be reviewing all | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
deaths in Wales through case notes. So if there are factors that suggest | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
a death could be prevented, which is probably | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
in a small proportion of deaths, We also need to be doing clinical | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
audits as part of the UK programme so hospitals in Wales should be | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
fully engaged in clinical audits. It's time to "draw a line" | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
under the war of words between That's the appeal from | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
Stephen Crabb, the new Secretary of State for Wales, | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
on his first full day in the job. Our parliamentary correspondent, | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
David Cornock, reports. The border between Wales | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
and England. Or the dividing line between life | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
and death as the prime minister put Today, in his first | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
Parliamentary appearance in his new job, David Cameron's Welsh Secretary | :16:29. | :16:40. | |
signalled a fresh start in relations Let's use this opportunity to draw | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
a line under all of this and restore a much more constructive tone | :16:45. | :16:51. | |
in our dialogue and work towards achieving positive things for people | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
and businesses in Wales because Labour welcomed that | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
but wanted to know if Mr Crabb was still hostile to more power being | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
transferred from Westminster. I think there will now be challenges | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
to the Secretary of State as to what It was only a few years ago | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
in opposition that he wrote: Mr Crabb said he was "open-minded" | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
about the idea of more devolution. Former Welsh Secretaries have | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
offered their experience. The job is essentially, these days, | :17:25. | :17:36. | |
not one that runs many things. It is about relationships, the | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
relationship between governments, the relationship between Parliament | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
and between people. That is not going to be the easiest thing of the | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
world to do in the general election year but it is an important part of | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
the job. So what else is in the Crabb | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
ministerial box? He has to broker a deal with | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
the Department for Transport here over who pays to | :17:56. | :17:57. | |
electrify the Valley rail lines. He'll be working with the | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
Foreign Office to make sure Wales makes the most of the NATO summit | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
in Newport now just 50 days away. He'll be hoping to avoid this place, | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
the Supreme Court, where recent UK government challenges to Welsh laws | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
have been thrown out. If you had one piece of advice for | :18:14. | :18:26. | |
him? It is to ensure that you make as many friends as possible. | :18:27. | :18:28. | |

There are quite a few people just in the local area and further | :19:23. | :19:30. | |
It is good for the local area because they take | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
We have been given the chance to film the journey of a set of wings. | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
Airbus is one of the biggest employers in Wales. | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
The Beluga?s an essential part of how the business operates. | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
With over 5000 Airbus aeroplanes ordered but not yet made, | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
there continues to be plenty of future work at Broughton. | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
We have seen an industry that grows in terms | :19:56. | :19:57. | |
of travelling public, the number of passengers doubles every 15 years. | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
Collectively, including the Toulouse site, we are | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
It is an important part of the European economy. | :20:07. | :20:15. | |
But a restructuring of the company in the last year did result in over | :20:16. | :20:18. | |
This is where the Welsh made wings meet the French | :20:19. | :20:25. | |
made front of the fuselage and the German built back of the fuselage. | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
Around 30 planes are built in this one site in Toulouse every month. | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
As well as Airbus there is GE Aviation, General Dynamics | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
Around 23,000 people in Wales are employed in the sector. | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
We have five percent of the UK's population and with 23,000 people | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
in aerospace and defence, we have 10 percent of the industry. | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
The UK aerospace industry grew by 10 percent last year. | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
The many thousands of workers whose jobs are dependent on it will | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
The quest for the Holy Grail has taken a new turn. | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
The police have launched their own search after thieves stole | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
a religious relic claimed to be the cup from which Christ drank | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
The Nanteos Cup, a wooden chalice named after | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
the mansion in Aberystwyth where it was once kept, has been taken. | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
It had been loaned to a seriously ill woman in Herefordshire because | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
The quest for the Holy Grail has taken many forms | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
One of the most famous was Indiana Jones' hunt for the religious relic. | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
Now police officers are following in the footsteps | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
of the movie legend by searching for the supposed Holy Grail or the | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
Gerald Morgan has written a book which includes the history | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
of the cup and the many claims that surround it including that it was | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
brought to Britain by Joseph of Arimathea after the death of Christ. | :22:00. | :22:08. | |
That it had been kept in on the street which he founded at | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
Glastonbury. That was until the monastery was closed when the monks | :22:15. | :22:20. | |
fled over the hills to Wales, to the Abbey. They had passed the cap from | :22:21. | :22:27. | |
one to the other until the last survivor of them. | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
And it's said that last surviving monk then passed | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
It was then passed to the family who owned this state. The holy Grail | :22:34. | :22:44. | |
rested here at the Mansion house for hundreds of years. The van owners to | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
kids with them in the late 1950s to Hereford. | :22:50. | :22:51. | |
Legend says the cup, made of olive wood or wych elm, is sacred and | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
people believed it to have healing properties and the sick made | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
pilgrimages to Aberywyth to drink from it as this news report shows | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
And that's why it had recently been loaned to a seriously ill woman | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
before it was stolen from her home in Herefordshire. | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
Dr Bonnie Buntain from Arizona had heard | :23:09. | :23:10. | |
of the myth and was in Aberyswyth today to take a tour about the cup. | :23:11. | :23:16. | |
I think it is very precious that Wales culture has this cap and the | :23:17. | :23:24. | |
history behind it. I feel sad as an American that it has been stolen. | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
The holy grail or just an ancient relic, the search | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
by police will go on this evening for this piece of Welsh history. | :23:34. | :23:44. | |
The showers clearing and becoming dry overnight. It'll be a mild | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
night. Just to give you an idea of the temperatures, 16 Celsius in the | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
west and 22 in Cardiff. Tomorrow we could have 26 Celsius. Through | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
tonight, the showers will clear and behind it who will see cloud that it | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
is dry. Some clear skies away from the coasts where we will see some | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
mist and fog. A mild night at images ranging between 12 - 16 Celsius. | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
High pressure just about remaining in charge tomorrow through tomorrow | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
night we will see this area of low pressure making its way from the | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
south and settling things. It'll bring with it the warmer air. | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
Tomorrow morning, a cloudy start and it will brighten up. We look forward | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
a dry day but still be uncomfortable at times. It'll be hot. Tensions | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
between 19 - 26. Through tomorrow night, temperatures not dropping | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
very much. It might be uncomfortable for sleeping. It is a dry tonight at | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
first, overnight since I was making their way in from the south. | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
Temperatures, 13-19. Those night-time temperatures. It will be | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
uncomfortable. Friday, something blue showers in the north and they | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
were statically. It's a bright enough for most of us as we go | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
through the morning. The best of the sunshine across eastern counties. | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
The breeze picks up and it will feel rather warm and humid. The Met | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
Office has issued an early yellow warning for the showers on Saturday. | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
They will be thundery and we will see some hail with it. It is going | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
to be a challenging day on Saturday especially of eastern counties. We | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
will be keeping an eye on that. We could see some localised flooding. | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
Sunday, a better day. Fewer showers and hopefully not causing any | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
problems. Back to our top story. | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
A new ?1 billion motorway has been announced. | :25:49. | :26:02. | |
The government today, by committing to this answer to the M4 problem has | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
been irresponsible. We're going to be paying the price for that for | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
many years to come. Infrastructure problem -- projects will suffer in | :26:15. | :26:22. | |
Wales. Let's have a word with our economic correspondent. There is | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
also a huge economic debate around this. It is as economic league | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
controversial as political. If billion pounds is spent Israel that | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
is going to help those companies. That is obvious. But that is much | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
more controversy about this theory that building a new motorway will | :26:43. | :26:46. | |
attract jobs and investment. Many people are saying where it is the | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
evidence for this? If you are going to spend ?1 billion to try and solve | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
the problems of the Welsh economy, basically poverty is one of the main | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
thing is, would you build a road on my team-mate the road a bit less | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
congested, have some public transport and tried to get | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
employment into some of our poorer areas? It is controversial as it is | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
economic rate. People are telling the government, where is the | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
evidence? This Seagate love this project the web is the evidence that | :27:18. | :27:20. | |
building a road tracks well-paid jobs? Many thanks. | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
I'll have an update for you here at eight o'clock and again | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
That's Wales Today thank you for watching, from all of us | :27:31. | :27:38. |
