:01:18. > :01:19.I feel like we were being really stupid.

:01:29. > :01:38.Banks do not phone and ask people to transfer loney.

:01:43. > :01:43.They might talk about particular transactions.

:03:43. > :03:44.Just one cruise ship overlooking Saint Peter Port today

:03:45. > :03:48.with established ports like Southampton,

:04:26. > :04:33.Guernsey's Chief Minister is at the Conservative Party Conference

:04:34. > :04:35.in Birmingham to boost understanding of channel islands issues

:04:36. > :04:39.Deputy Jonathan Le Tocq says he s had a full day

:04:40. > :04:42.He joined me from the conference earlier to

:04:43. > :04:56.We want to work on passenger duty but we will have to look

:04:57. > :04:59.at other things and with an election coming up we must hold

:05:00. > :05:11.We need to build on relationships as much as we can and tax will always

:05:12. > :05:15.be an issue. The UK politichans bashing these tax havens, which they

:05:16. > :05:20.lump us in with sometimes, the Channel Islands, it goes down well

:05:21. > :05:25.with UK voters. Had you get the message out there that the Channel

:05:26. > :05:28.Islands are clean? We are p`rt of the solution. We have authorities

:05:29. > :05:33.and systems and the message is getting through. We have frhends

:05:34. > :05:38.that will speak for us when we are not around. We cannot be in all

:05:39. > :05:43.places at all times. In Westminster, in Brussels, we have people that

:05:44. > :05:48.understand us and can defend us when we are being misrepresented. Does it

:05:49. > :05:52.make you wish we had party politics in the Channel Islands, seehng that

:05:53. > :05:58.politicians support each other and voters know what they stand for We

:05:59. > :06:01.know that forums exist at p`rty conferences like this which can

:06:02. > :06:07.inform people so that they know what they are voting for. But I think the

:06:08. > :06:13.system working in the UK wotld not work in Jerseyl and Guernsex. That

:06:14. > :06:17.is the news from BBC Channel Islands News. Now the weather. More

:06:18. > :06:23.unsettled weather coming in the next week. Moving into next week it looks

:06:24. > :06:29.generally a lot more unsettled. Tomorrow, cloudy and first`hand then

:06:30. > :06:32.some sunshine breaking throtgh the crowd and brighter. A possibility of

:06:33. > :06:37.some spits and spots of rain into the evening tomorrow evening.

:06:38. > :06:42.Further on, a chance of showers appearing but I do not think we will

:06:43. > :06:48.see many of them. Rather cloudy and misty in places. Night`time

:06:49. > :06:51.temperatures not lower than 15. Tomorrow we are expecting the cloud

:06:52. > :06:56.fairly thick at first but breaking up into sunny spells moving into the

:06:57. > :07:01.afternoon. Effectively a drx day and anywhere from 18 up to 20, 60 eight

:07:02. > :07:07.Fahrenheit. Wind mostly frol the south`west. Variable in the

:07:08. > :07:12.afternoon. On Wednesday a couple of weaker weather fronts. They might be

:07:13. > :07:18.enough to produce some rain but on the whole cloudy and dry on

:07:19. > :07:22.Wednesday. Friday night, we will see quite a big change. On Frid`y night

:07:23. > :07:27.I think we will have more pdrsistent rain and also becoming quitd windy

:07:28. > :07:28.for the start of Saturday. Hn a second we will have the UK forecast.

:07:29. > :07:31.But from the team here, more breezy. Now for the n!tional

:07:32. > :07:41.weather. Good evening. We all know that

:07:42. > :07:48.summer has been a bit extended this year. It has been a very dry and

:07:49. > :07:52.warm month. On the final day of September, we are promised more dry

:07:53. > :07:56.weather once we have lost early morning mist and fog. There will be

:07:57. > :08:01.some rain creeping into western areas. Ahead of that, we have been

:08:02. > :08:04.drawing up big showers from France. A few thunder storms today.

:08:05. > :08:06.Downpours over
