:04:14. > :04:15.We are reaching an equal st`ge. Only one in five States members
:04:16. > :04:28.in Jersey are women. Yes. I would love to see more
:04:29. > :04:34.women. It is a better representation of the community, because that unity
:04:35. > :04:38.is half and half. It is stupid to waste the talents of half the
:04:39. > :04:45.talents of happy community. I think there is a stigma attached to women
:04:46. > :04:49.in work places. I think that the States have a certain amount of
:04:50. > :04:51.flexibility to allow women to come into politics.
:04:52. > :04:54.With an election looming later this year, Diane Abbot is hoping to

:05:05. > :05:18.I think women have to put themselves forward. You cannot be elected if
:05:19. > :05:23.you do not. We have to look at having a level playing field for
:05:24. > :05:31.women. What can be done to dncourage women. You met some students today
:05:32. > :05:39.who are interested in polithcs. How can they get into politics? These
:05:40. > :05:54.students were great and where wool of questions. I think it is very
:05:55. > :05:59.important that the boat. `` vote. And that people get active hn the
:06:00. > :06:04.community. Politics is what do you make of it. If more women gdt
:06:05. > :06:10.involved are politics will be improved. Turnout for electhons is
:06:11. > :06:17.historically low in the Channel Islands. What can be done to
:06:18. > :06:22.increase these figures? I think if the politicians spoke more like
:06:23. > :06:28.ordinary people and were more diverse it would help peopld to
:06:29. > :06:33.engage with politics. We have a large Portuguese and Polish
:06:34. > :06:39.committee in Jersey. How can these people get into politics? I think
:06:40. > :06:50.people from all backgrounds should engage. They have something to
:06:51. > :07:04.contribute and a life experhence. They issued make sure that they
:07:05. > :07:08.vote. There is a general eldction in Jersey coming up. Do you have any
:07:09. > :07:16.advice for women thinking of standing? Make sure that yot use
:07:17. > :07:18.your vote. Make sure that women get in there.

:10:28. > :10:39.the moment there is some rahn and it will continue overnight. But the
:10:40. > :10:46.rest of the week will be drx. The high pressure determines who will

:13:31. > :13:33.and a half metres long. Hundreds of this usually rare sea creattre had
:13:34. > :13:39.been seen all along the south coast of Cornwall, Devon and Dorsdt. This
:13:40. > :13:47.was filmed in the Clearwater of the river. Matt Slater has filmdd the
:13:48. > :13:52.barrel daily fish. You are from the Cornwall Maritime trust. Yotr dog is
:13:53. > :13:57.important, too. You must be really pleased with this footage. H am
:13:58. > :14:02.It's amazing how many peopld have already viewed it. We have had over
:14:03. > :14:06.10,000 hits in a couple of days Talk to us about the movement of the
:14:07. > :14:14.jellyfish. They are very gr`ceful and that polls sates `` pulsates
:14:15. > :14:20.them along. They are actively swimming and hunting for food. They
:14:21. > :14:26.can't move along much, they drift with the tides, don't they? Yes
:14:27. > :14:33.They travel large distances up and down to the water. You get ` sense
:14:34. > :14:37.of stale `` scale because you filmed your dog swimming with them. It
:14:38. > :14:42.happened by accident that she swam through the shot. It gives xou an
:14:43. > :14:45.idea of the scale. They are 80 centimetres wide and they c`n be
:14:46. > :14:53.over one metre long, hanging down underneath them. It is quitd
:14:54. > :14:57.impressive. It is also some of each season, children and adults. Are
:14:58. > :15:03.they dangerous? You don't h`ve to worry. Fortunately, they ard
:15:04. > :15:09.completely harmless. All jellyfish are capable of stinging, but in the
:15:10. > :15:17.UK, the Sting cannot get through asking `` our skin. Just as well!
:15:18. > :15:22.This is a first year in a while they are seen in such numbers. Why they
:15:23. > :15:25.are seen in these numbers comes down to lots of different factors
:15:26. > :15:31.combine. This year has been a good year for this species, tempdrature,
:15:32. > :15:38.and under food, predators, has meant that they thrived. In other years,
:15:39. > :15:40.they don't. Let's talk about the predators of the giant barrdl
:15:41. > :15:47.jellyfish. That is leatherb`ck turtle. They were expected to arrive
:15:48. > :15:52.here, because the barrels are here. Somebody has seen some. Yes, we have
:15:53. > :16:01.had two sightings, one in F`lmouth and wanted the West. All although
:16:02. > :16:06.this jellyfish has almost bdcome common in the South West of this
:16:07. > :16:10.year only, wildlife trusts would do like to see reports of sightings.
:16:11. > :16:12.And if you see a leatherback turtle, that really would bd the

:17:48. > :17:51.village. It's very important that children should know what h`s
:17:52. > :18:01.happened here, and how we British deal with this sort of thing. I
:18:02. > :18:04.think Northlew itself has a very good reason for wanting to do that
:18:05. > :18:15.because so many people did not come back. I am sure many will bd

:20:51. > :20:57.early to see it. Whether we will see any more tonight, I don't know. But
:20:58. > :21:03.pretty clear skies. It's mostly dry, some sunshine. From Friday, quite a
:21:04. > :21:07.change. We see a new area of low pressure head our way. Some
:21:08. > :21:12.uncertainty about how much rain we are likely to see. There is clouded
:21:13. > :21:17.to the west of us, which has been producing some showers across
:21:18. > :21:23.Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. It trickles southward, still a risk of
:21:24. > :21:28.seeing if you showers. It moves down towards the northern part of Spain,
:21:29. > :21:34.Portugal and western France. I the time you get the middle of the week
:21:35. > :21:39.it has died into the Mediterranean. A thin area of high pressurd, which

:21:45. > :21:51.though weather systems approach from the West on Thursday, they week and
:21:52. > :22:03.they bring a band of cloud. This is the picture from earlier today, the
:22:04. > :22:06.cloud has been well broken. We got lovely shot of a kaleidoscope of
:22:07. > :22:12.clouds in the sky, someone was patchy. Plenty of dry weathdr for
:22:13. > :22:17.this part of Devon and Cornwall Further west, we have had a few
:22:18. > :22:25.showers. For most of us, it has been a reasonable day and quite warm in
:22:26. > :22:30.that sunshine. The cloud we have seen along the south coast will fade
:22:31. > :22:36.away for a time overnight btt it is still big enough to produce some
:22:37. > :22:43.showers. Most likely in the far west of Cornwall. Clear skies along the
:22:44. > :22:49.north coast Devon into Somerset For most of us, 13 of 14 degrees
:22:50. > :22:54.minimum. The cloud might be a bit stubborn along the English Channel
:22:55. > :22:58.coast, the main story is a fine dry weather with increasing amotnts of
:22:59. > :23:07.sunshine. The sun will come out for all of us, with some patchy cloud
