Welcome to Wales Today. Our top stories:

:00:00.:00:07.

The Welsh clothing retailer JoJo Mamam Bebe is among

:00:08.:00:09.

ten business signatories to a letter backing remaining in the EU.

:00:10.:00:16.

And after that violence between England and Russia fans

:00:17.:00:18.

French authorities consider alcohol bans amid concerns for Wales' games.

:00:19.:00:38.

The Chancellor says people need to think very hard

:00:39.:00:41.

before they risk voting to leave the European Union.

:00:42.:00:47.

George Osborne was visiting north Wales on the day a group

:00:48.:00:50.

of leading Welsh business figures backed remaining in the EU.

:00:51.:00:54.

They include billionaire entrepreneur Sir Terry Matthews.

:00:55.:00:57.

Wales more competitive argue that Brexit will make

:00:58.:01:02.

and able to sell more across the world.

:01:03.:01:06.

The Chancellor rode the Ffestiniog railway to Porthmadog

:01:07.:01:09.

but polls suggest it is his Remain campaign that

:01:10.:01:12.

George Osborne visited Boston Lodge engineering works and warned that

:01:13.:01:19.

tourism and manufacturing would be damaged by the UK leaving the EU.

:01:20.:01:24.

Here in Wales, whichever way you vote, you can see the fact

:01:25.:01:28.

that you have Conservatives, Welsh Labour, you have the Liberals,

:01:29.:01:30.

you have the Nationalists, the unions, businesses

:01:31.:01:33.

large and small, they are all saying the same thing,

:01:34.:01:36.

which is we are better off in the EU.

:01:37.:01:38.

Those on the other side of the argument,

:01:39.:01:51.

say Remain campaigners are being negative.

:01:52.:01:52.

The government have decided they want us to stay

:01:53.:01:54.

in the European Union despite pushing very hard for this

:01:55.:01:57.

referendum, and they are modelling all the impact of coming out

:01:58.:02:00.

but they are not looking at the positive side of it,

:02:01.:02:02.

the impact that pulling out could have on exporters.

:02:03.:02:04.

We want to export across the rest of the world to countries

:02:05.:02:07.

with which we don't currently have trade deals.

:02:08.:02:09.

Some of the biggest employers in Wales, including major exporters,

:02:10.:02:11.

Airbus, which has 6,000 employees here, has written

:02:12.:02:18.

to them outlining the benefits of EU membership.

:02:19.:02:21.

With 2,200 staff, British Gas is backing the EU.

:02:22.:02:29.

Ford with its 1,900 workers also wants to remain.

:02:30.:02:37.

Leave has the backing of the boss of JCB and a major base in Wrexham.

:02:38.:02:42.

Professor Patrick Minford wants to leave the EU and

:02:43.:02:44.

would mostly eliminate manufacturing in favour of design and high-tech.

:02:45.:02:54.

The whole point about the EU is, it is protectionist.

:02:55.:02:57.

I don't think Wales' industry needs protection,

:02:58.:02:58.

It is high-tech in many cases, the car industry exports

:02:59.:03:02.

more than half its output outside the EU.

:03:03.:03:06.

It has great products. It has nothing to fear from competition.

:03:07.:03:10.

The boss of the global brand, JoJo Mamam Bebe,

:03:11.:03:15.

which has its HQ in Newport, is one of those who signed

:03:16.:03:18.

41% of exports from Wales go to the European Union

:03:19.:03:23.

which is a market of 500 million people.

:03:24.:03:29.

We're good at producing new, innovative ideas, services and

:03:30.:03:39.

products which we are, at the moment, selling to the world very

:03:40.:03:42.

well, so why should we restrict

:03:43.:03:44.

our economic growth by this move backwards?

:03:45.:03:45.

Most business surveys suggest that firms are largely in favour

:03:46.:03:48.

As it gets closer to polling day, many will be looking for signals

:03:49.:03:53.

that indicate which destination were heading for.

:03:54.:04:04.

of many across the world - Assembly this evening was one

:04:05.:04:08.

to show solidarity with victims of the shootings in Florida.

:04:09.:04:16.

49 people were killed in the attack at a gay nightclub in Orlando,

:04:17.:04:21.

which the FBI have described as an act of terrorism.

:04:22.:04:30.

it could happen anywhere in the world.

:04:31.:04:36.

So we just need to band together and hopefully stop this sort

:04:37.:04:39.

I'm basically here to support my fellow LBGT community.

:04:40.:04:42.

I think we all resonate with events in Orlando.

:04:43.:04:44.

There's a lot of discrimination still in the world.

:04:45.:04:46.

And I think, if we stand together, we can hopefully make things

:04:47.:04:49.

Two Cardiff men have been arrested on suspicion of murder

:04:50.:04:53.

following the death of a man in the Llanedeyrn area

:04:54.:04:55.

Police were called to a possible stabbing at around seven o'clock.

:04:56.:04:59.

The victim, who has not yet been formally identified,

:05:00.:05:01.

RAF pilots training over Anglesey were put at risk

:05:02.:05:04.

when a bright light was shone into their cockpits at night,

:05:05.:05:07.

Mold Crown Court heard John Arthur Jones is obsessed

:05:08.:05:10.

by flights over his land near Mona airfield.

:05:11.:05:12.

He denies 13 charges of endangering aircraft.

:05:13.:05:19.

Football, and in France, five England fans have been jailed

:05:20.:05:22.

and two Russians arrested for their part in clashes in Marseille.

:05:23.:05:25.

Amid security fears, Welsh police officers will meet

:05:26.:05:28.

with UEFA security bosses tomorrow in a bid to prevent violence

:05:29.:05:32.

ahead of Thursday's match between Wales and England.

:05:33.:05:35.

The Football Association of Wales is also urging fans

:05:36.:05:38.

not to travel to the game if they don't have a ticket.

:05:39.:05:42.

A far cry from the relaxed party atmosphere in Bordeaux.

:05:43.:05:48.

Police on the streets of Lille, hoping to avoid more

:05:49.:05:51.

A fight between German and Ukrainian fans ahead of

:05:52.:05:54.

Today, Wales boss Chris Coleman urged fans to avoid any trouble.

:05:55.:06:01.

It needs to be dealt with, and it needs to be severe.

:06:02.:06:05.

So for our Welsh boys, just do what you did in Bordeaux.

:06:06.:06:16.

Whether we win, lose or draw, because they are representing

:06:17.:06:19.

their country, also. And they were impeccably behaved.

:06:20.:06:21.

The Welsh fans were impeccably behaved.

:06:22.:06:22.

It's pretty quiet here now, but over the next few days,

:06:23.:06:32.

some of those English fans will be arriving here, along with the Welsh

:06:33.:06:35.

and the Slovakians. Russia plays Slovakia on Wednesday.

:06:36.:06:37.

24 hours later, 24 miles away in the small town of Lens,

:06:38.:06:40.

Wales take on England and fans have already been told to stay

:06:41.:06:43.

away from that game and, instead, congregate here.

:06:44.:06:46.

It comes after days of violence in Marseille, on the streets

:06:47.:07:08.

French prosecutors say 150 Russians were behind it, setting off flares

:07:09.:07:12.

TRANSLATION: I have asked for all necessary measures to be

:07:13.:07:17.

taken to prohibit the sale, consumption and transport of alcohol

:07:18.:07:21.

in sensitive areas on match days and the day before,

:07:22.:07:24.

Uefa has already said it will consider banning England

:07:25.:07:31.

and Russia if there is any more fan trouble.

:07:32.:07:33.

Tomorrow, it'll sanction Russia, looking to a message that

:07:34.:07:35.

violence at this tournament will not be tolerated.

:07:36.:07:42.

Back at Wales' training ground in Brittany,

:07:43.:07:44.

today's training session. absentee during

:07:45.:07:47.

The goalkeeper who missed Wales' 2-1 victory over Slovakia on Saturday

:07:48.:07:50.

hopes to recover from a back spasm in time

:07:51.:07:52.

for Thursday's match against England.

:07:53.:07:57.

All change on the weather front - Derek's got tonight's forecast.

:07:58.:08:00.

You could say it's back to normal this week with the weather.

:08:01.:08:06.

We are expecting some heavy showers over the next few days.

:08:07.:08:08.

Some sunshine as well and a better end to the week.

:08:09.:08:11.

In the meantime tonight, some dry weather but further

:08:12.:08:13.

Also some low cloud, missed and a few fog patches.

:08:14.:08:23.

And once again another mild, close night.

:08:24.:08:24.

Into tomorrow morning, a bit of a mixed bag

:08:25.:08:26.

with further cloud, and showers, heavy in places.

:08:27.:08:28.

Some dry weather likely as well, especially in the sound.

:08:29.:08:32.

--South. Across the rest of the UK, the North and East of Scotland,

:08:33.:08:35.

north-east England, damp and misty with hill and coastal fog.

:08:36.:08:39.

Maybe some heavy rain in the north-east of Scotland.

:08:40.:08:44.

Elsewhere a mixed bag of sunshine but also some showers,

:08:45.:08:46.

A high of 20 Celsius in London, 16 in Belfast.

:08:47.:08:50.

In Wales tomorrow afternoon, there will be showers around

:08:51.:08:57.

which could be heavy and thundery with a weather warning in force

:08:58.:09:00.

But if you're lucky you will miss the showers and stay dry

:09:01.:09:04.

Tomorrow evening and overnight, heavy showers will tend to die down.

:09:05.:09:08.

Otherwise becoming dry with some mist.

:09:09.:09:13.

Into Wednesday some dry, bright weather, but, again,

:09:14.:09:15.

showers will brew up during the day

:09:16.:09:17.

and if you catch them, they could be heavy and thundery.

:09:18.:09:20.

The best of the sunshine likely on some of the coasts.

:09:21.:09:24.

A mixture of sunshine and heavy showers to come

:09:25.:09:27.

The end of the week looks much drier and fresher, too,

:09:28.:09:34.

with the wind turning to the North and at the moment, Saturday looks

:09:35.:09:38.

dry and settled thanks to a ridge of high pressure.

:09:39.:09:40.

I wish you a good night. Nos da.

:09:41.:09:50.

That's Wales Today. Thank you for watching from all of us

:09:51.:09:53.

We're back tomorrow from 6am on Breakfast.

:09:54.:10:07.

On June 23, we will be asked to make one of the most important decisions
