:02:42. > :02:44.like to see Mr Cameron himself, but you cannot see that happening. But
:02:45. > :02:49.somebody needs to come here. The steel industry is going to go. The
:02:50. > :02:54.Prime Minister, back from holiday, said the government would do what it
:02:55. > :02:56.would do. We are not rolling anything out. I don't believe

:03:01. > :03:05.for Port Talbot. The fear in Downing Street is that the owners will not
:03:06. > :03:10.give them enough time to find a buyer and just close the plant down.
:03:11. > :03:14.But just listen to the caution in David Cameron's voice. We were
:03:15. > :03:18.concerned there was a chance that there could have been an outright
:03:19. > :03:24.closure of Port Talbot. That is why we worked very hard with the company
:03:25. > :03:27.to make sure there is a proper sales process. We will do everything we
:03:28. > :03:30.can to encourage people to come forward, but this is a difficult
:03:31. > :03:35.situation. There are no guarantees of success. The government has been
:03:36. > :03:39.criticised for acting slowly. Today ministers were summoned to talk
:03:40. > :03:42.about the crisis. But if you don't recognise them all, don't worry,

:04:41. > :04:44.long term to make it more viable and pay for it all by raising capital
:04:45. > :04:48.gains taxes. If a buyer isn't coming forward quickly it will have to be
:04:49. > :04:52.nationalised to stabilise. Then we will look at the strategy for the

:04:59. > :05:01.The government is in a tight spot. Under political pressure. But it

:05:11. > :05:14.buying at the glut of global steel isn't going away. Ministers now I
:05:15. > :05:19.admit there is only so much they can do. To be sustainable it has to be a
:05:20. > :05:25.solution that recognises the context and the reality of a world which is
:05:26. > :05:31.drowning in an oversupply of steel. We cannot simply ignore that. It has
:05:32. > :05:35.to be a more nuanced solution that focuses on supporting the
:05:36. > :05:39.communities. That is what this comes down to, the impact on communities
:05:40. > :05:41.whose lives revolve around the steel plant, and whose future is dependent
:05:42. > :05:46.on choices made in the coming days. Tata's board decided to pull out
:05:47. > :05:49.of steel production in the UK because it was not able
:05:50. > :05:55.to make money here - the Port Talbot plant alone
:05:56. > :05:58.was losing ?1 million a day. Our economics editor Kamal Ahmed has
:05:59. > :06:02.been looking at why UK steel has suffered more than

:06:59. > :07:02.rules of the single market do not have any discriminatory help to any
:07:03. > :07:06.industry. I think some countries violate the rules. They get taken to
:07:07. > :07:12.the European Court. By the time they are taken to the European Court they
:07:13. > :07:18.may have just gone past the problem, and simply happily be slapped on the

:22:49. > :22:52.Brexit. We have the best players in the world and we have access through
:22:53. > :22:59.Europe to those best players, not to have them is self-evidently very
:23:00. > :23:03.damaging, very damaging. That's a real threat to us. We should not go
:23:04. > :23:07.down that road. The government could agree to freedom of movement as part
:23:08. > :23:13.of its exit negotiations and little would change but what if the rules
:23:14. > :23:16.for non-EU players that they must be regulars for their country to
:23:17. > :23:23.automatically get a work permit applied to European footballers too?
:23:24. > :23:28.125 out of 199 players would not qualify based on their international
:23:29. > :23:32.records. In the Scottish Premiership none of the 53 would have the
:23:33. > :23:37.required number of caps. Across British football 441 EU players face
:23:38. > :23:44.an uncertain future. If you have fewer players coming from Europe it
:23:45. > :23:49.opens up squads in the first team for local players, so there is a
:23:50. > :23:53.potential benefit. Whether those players would be brought on as much
:23:54. > :23:56.without access to European players is another question. Here at
:23:57. > :24:01.Cosmopolitan Stoke City the make-up of the squad could change can
:24:02. > :24:05.magically. The club has nine EU players who wouldn't automatically
:24:06. > :24:08.qualify to stay based on their international appearances. They
:24:09. > :24:13.would have to appeal and hope they could make a case to be granted a
:24:14. > :24:17.permit. Some may be successful but others may not. However according to
:24:18. > :24:22.one leading manager Brexit needn't mean an exodus of talent. The
:24:23. > :24:24.Premier League and the football Association, especially the Premier
:24:25. > :24:32.League, they will adjust the rural is accordingly. I think there could
:24:33. > :24:37.be massive trouble otherwise. It is such massive revenue, are the
:24:38. > :24:38.government would not put up with it because they get so
:24:39. > :24:46.government would not put up with it it's unbelievable. Players like
:24:47. > :24:48.Dimitri Payet are among the biggest stars in English football, but the
:24:49. > :24:51.game now faces potential uncertainty.
:24:52. > :24:54.You might remember last month we told you about a baby gorilla
:24:55. > :24:56.born at Bristol Zoo in a rare emergency Caesarean operation.
:24:57. > :24:59.She's now seven weeks old and is being cared
:25:00. > :25:02.for by keepers as her mother has been critically ill since her birth.
:25:03. > :25:06.Jon Kay has been to see her and the team caring
:25:07. > :25:16.Lindsey looks like any proud mum, carrying a newborn through the park.
:25:17. > :25:19.But look closely in her sling, this is a seven-week-old baby
:25:20. > :25:37.It was on a Friday last month that she was born in a rare
:25:38. > :25:42.Caesarean operation when her mother became unwell.
:25:43. > :25:45.Until Mum has fully recovered, Afia needs to be hand reared
:25:46. > :25:46.by staff at Bristol Zoo.
:25:47. > :25:48.Which even involves taking her home with them at night.
:25:49. > :25:51.Lindsey told me that she sleeps with Afia downstairs
:25:52. > :25:59.while her husband and two human children sleep upstairs.
:26:00. > :26:06.I get my bed set up for the evening, I might watch a bit of telly
:26:07. > :26:09.and have a cup of tea, but I'm always aware of feeds
:26:10. > :26:11.and trying to get myself some sleep in between them.
:26:12. > :26:14.Just like you are when you have young babies at home.
:26:15. > :26:16.You are snatching sleep where you can.
:26:17. > :26:20.My husband jokes, we could have a third one,
:26:21. > :26:27.Zookeepers say the priority is to get Afia back with her gorilla
:26:28. > :26:32.family where the public can see her, but it will take time,
:26:33. > :26:41.first she has to get to know her relatives like Dad,
:26:42. > :26:44.Jock, and if her real mum can't bring her up then Auntie Remina
:26:45. > :26:46.is said to be showing maternal interest.
:26:47. > :26:52.In the meantime, though, she has got Lindsey.
:26:53. > :26:58.Time for a look at the weather now with Alex Deakin. We will keep the
:26:59. > :27:02.animal theme going because March came in like a lion but as it
:27:03. > :27:07.normally does it is going out like a lamb. Quite a calm and sunny day for
:27:08. > :27:13.most today but there were storms in eastern England. A big thunderstorm
:27:14. > :27:18.in Ipswich producing significant hailstones, also across south-east
:27:19. > :27:22.Scotland. Some storms rumbling on in the East at the moment but they are
:27:23. > :27:26.fading away. Most having a dry night and light last night it will be
:27:27. > :27:30.another chilly one, particularly across England and Wales. These are
:27:31. > :27:34.the temperatures in the countryside, down to freezing or a touch below,
:27:35. > :27:39.but not in the North West because there are signs of change. The
:27:40. > :27:43.breeze is picking up and wet weather also pushes in, a soggy day for
:27:44. > :27:47.Northern Ireland and western Scotland and the rain trickles into
:27:48. > :27:51.other parts of England and Wales. Southern parts will stay dry. The
:27:52. > :27:57.rain slowly heads to eastern Scotland but the Murray Firth will
:27:58. > :28:05.stay dry and bright, 13 possible. It is dismal and cruel in Northern
:28:06. > :28:11.Ireland, Belfast. -- cool in Belfast. Where the sun shines
:28:12. > :28:14.longest after a cold start the afternoon should see temperatures
:28:15. > :28:18.getting into the teens. The weather front looks as though it will sweep
:28:19. > :28:22.across for the weekend but it stops and starts to grind further north
:28:23. > :28:27.during the weekend so some places look rather soggy with rain pushing
:28:28. > :28:31.back into southern Scotland and Northern Ireland, to the north of
:28:32. > :28:34.that it is dry and bright but chilly and further south there will be
:28:35. > :28:38.warmer weather with some sunshine. Again into the teens. Heavy showers
:28:39. > :28:54.on Saturday night and still some on Sunday where they are
:28:55. > :28:56.lingering in some areas but signs of things getting warmer still on
:28:57. > :28:59.Sunday. I like that. Thanks very much. A reminder of the main
:29:00. > :29:02.story... David Cameron has said the government will do all it can to
