I'm in Leicester at the victory parade for the Premier League | :01:00. | :01:06. | |
The streets are awash with blue, as around 100,000 people turn out to | :01:07. | :01:18. | |
thank their heroes. And over on the BBC News channel, | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
continuing coverage as the Leicester City team parade | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
through the city with We will be speaking | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
to players and fans. Good evening and welcome | :01:25. | :01:47. | |
to the BBC News at Six. Prison authorities in England | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
and Wales are fighting a losing battle as they try to prevent | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
smuggled items, including drugs and weapons, being | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
delivered to inmates. A BBC investigation has found | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
that the number of banned items entering jails has doubled | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
in the last two years. In some cases, the packages have | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
been flown in by drones. The Ministry of Justice says | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
it is determined to crack As our special correspondent | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
Lucy Manning reports, the drugs - especially the legal | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
high known as spice - are fuelling violence | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
inside prisons. The prisoners can't get out, | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
but there's little to stop drugs, Wandsworth prison last | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
month, and a drone Beneath it, a package dangles | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
in midair, packed with spice, a synthetic drug causing | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
havoc in jails, and mobile phones. It's delivery by drone and it is | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
room, or actually, cell service. A prisoner guides the haul into his | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
cell, and after a few attempts, But caught on CCTV, | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
this was a wasted Outside Pentonville prison, | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
a more low-tech attempt. A man attaches a bundle to a rope | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
and from inside the jail, lifted up the wall | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
and into the prison. It is a problem jails | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
across the country are A snag, as it's caught on a branch, | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
but then it's lifted over. An arm from inside the prison | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
then yanks it in. Official figures show there have | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
only been 15 incidents of banned items thrown over Pentonville's | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
walls in the last year. But locals say they must | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
have missed a zero off. They say they've seen it happen | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
many more times. This, another drone | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
that crash-landed in Wandsworth prison grounds as it | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
tried to smuggle in banned items. Some drugs and phones are seized, | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
sometimes packed into drink cartons. The BBC has found the number | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
of banned items thrown into prisons in England and Wales has doubled | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
in the last two years - 2,000 packages, many | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
more not detected. Sam, whose whose voice has been | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
disguised, served five years It can literally get thrown | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
over the wall. It is quite military | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
operation, literally, And they're going to | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
the correct people. Wandsworth has seen just | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
this method, managing Spice in the packets | :04:24. | :04:24. | |
here is the legal high that And with spice on the increase, so, | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
too, is the violence. The BBC has learned that more | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
than 1,000 weapons were found in prisons in England and Wales | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
in just six months last year. Nearly three quarters, | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
knives and blades. Jonathan Burke was released last | :04:44. | :04:45. | |
year after serving time for robbery. And drugs and violence | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
go hand-in-hand. I seen it change, especially | :04:52. | :05:01. | |
since spice came into prison. It was...regular violence and then | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
the spice came in, and about three months later, | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
it was just ridiculous. Literally 70%, 80% of | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
the wing is smoking it. I've personally known people that | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
have made thousands, They are richer when they come out | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
of prison than they was when they Seized in Wandsworth jail - | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
the BBC has also discovered an increase in people charged | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
with smuggling drugs Oliver was released | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
from jail last year. Staff is the most consistent | :05:37. | :05:44. | |
way of getting drugs into prison on a regular basis, | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
and that way, you can I've seen the handing over | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
of drugs and mobile phones personally in prisons, | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
on a pretty regular basis. Those working in prison say | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
this is a minority of staff, but they accept smuggling | :05:57. | :06:09. | |
and weapons are a growing problem. The defence which prisoners are | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
presenting is that they were tooling And this becomes what | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
was described to me as The combination of drugs, drones, | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
knives and fewer staff make a dangerous mix | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
for prisoners and officers. People are going to be shocked by | :06:27. | :06:38. | |
what you have shown them. What are the authorities actually doing about | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
this? I think people will be astonished, seeing those pictures of | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
drones going into a prison cell. People we have spoken to on the | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
inside and those now on the outside so you can just make so much money | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
from drugs and phones in prisons that they can afford to take a loss | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
if the package is confiscated or the drawing crashes. In the pictures you | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
saw, that drone went into the prison cell and they broke it up and | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
flushed the bits down the toilet. But the Ministry of Justice has said | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
to us that they have zero tolerance for drugs and phones going into | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
prison, weapons in prison, that they have cracked down on this. But they | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
accept that they need to do more. On Wednesday, in the Queen's speech, we | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
will get some more details on prison reform, which is being led by | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
Michael Gove. But MPs today warned that the increasing levels of | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
violence and suicide in prison and self harm might undermine that. That | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
is something he needs to keep in mind. We will be in prisons all | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
week, reporting more. Thank you for joining us. | :07:38. | :07:39. | |
A mentally-ill man has been cleared of murder but found guilty | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility | :07:43. | :07:43. | |
after killing a retired solicitor following a road accident. | :07:44. | :07:45. | |
Matthew Daley stabbed Donald Lock 39 times | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
after the 79-year-old ran into the back of his | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
The trial heard that Daley's family had warned that he might do harm | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
NHS chiefs have apologised for not doing more. | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
That's... I stood up with... With... My knife. In a police interview | :08:02. | :08:23. | |
room, Matthew Daley on the day of his arrest, calmly describing a | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
horrific attack on a country road in July last year. His victim was 79 | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
your old Donald Lock, a retired solicitor who had just been given | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
the all clear after cancer treatment. On that July evening, | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
Donald Lock was travelling south, just here on the A24. He was heading | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
home to Worthing. In front of him, Matthew Daley pulled out of a side | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
road. Witnesses said that after a few yards, Daley braked suddenly, | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
for no apparent reason. Mr Lock, who was travelling at less than 20 PH, | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
also braked and hit the back of Daley's. Daley stabbed Mr Lok 39 | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
times, then turned and drove off, leaving his victim lying in the | :09:10. | :09:11. | |
roadway. When armed police officers arrested Daley in Worthing, two days | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
later, the knife was still in his bag. During his trial, Donald Lock's | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
family have heard detailed argument about Daley's mental state at the | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
time of the attack. His parents told the court they had repeatedly asked | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
their NHS Trust to act, as his behaviour grew more erratic. Sussex | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
Partnership NHS Trust have apologised and there will now be an | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
independent review of ten other deaths involving their patients over | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
the past five years. We did not give Matthew the right care. What I can | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
say is that that would have had an impact on the outcome. Outside court | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
today, Donald Lock's family also condemned the trust for its | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
failings. It is clear that dad would still be here today if they had done | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
their job properly. Nothing we say or do now will bring that back to | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
us. But we will continue in this spirit that dad carried with him. | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
Matthew Daley will be sentenced in July. This case has raised fresh | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
concerns over whether other tragedies could have been avoided. | :10:17. | :10:18. | |
Robert Hall, BBC News, East Sussex. The former head of the secret | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
intelligence service, MI6, has warned of the risk of right-wing | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
uprisings if the EU fails to take Sir Richard Dearlove was speaking | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
at a BBC conference on migration, along with the Hollywood actress - | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
and UN envoy - Angelina Jolie-Pitt. Our Security Correspondent | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
Gordon Corera reports. A stark warning today from a former | :10:35. | :10:47. | |
intelligence chief, about the implications of the migration crisis | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
and the failure of Europe to get a grip on it. Speaking at the BBC's | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
World On The Move conference, a former head of MI6 said there was a | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
danger that extremist politics could gain ground. If Europe cannot act | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
together, to persuade a majority of its citizens that it can gain | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
control of its migratory crisis, then the EU will find itself at the | :11:13. | :11:19. | |
mercy of a populist uprising, which is already stirring. Sir Richard | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
raised particular concerns over the deal between the European Union and | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
Turkey. Turkey has agreed to stem the flow of migrants arriving in | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
Europe, in return for a deal which could lead to Turkish citizens | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
gaining Visa free access to parts of Europe, although not Britain. That, | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
he argued, was a short-term solution which carried real risks. For the | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
EU, however, to offer Visa free access to 75 million Turks, to stem | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
the flow of migrants across the Aegean Sea, seems perverse, like | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
storing gasoline next to the fire we are trying to extinguish. Sir | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
Richard Dearlove spent nearly 40 years working inside MI6. He said | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
today that part of the job was making informed predictions about | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
where the world was heading, but he also warned that there would be no | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
James Bond style miraculous solutions to the problems posed by | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
migration. The dangers of a political backlash were also | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
emphasised by Angelina Jolie-Pitt, the UN refugee agency's special | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
envoy, also speaking at the BBC today. Fear of uncontrolled | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
migration has eroded public confidence and the ability of | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
governments and international institutions to control the | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
situation. It has given space to force air of legitimacy to those who | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
promote politics of fear and separation. More than 1 million | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
people entered Europe last year will stop today, two different voices | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
both warned of the potential consequences if institutions fail to | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
find solutions to the resulting crisis. Gordon Corera, BBC News. | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
It was one of the biggest upsets in sporting history. | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
This evening, the people of Leicester are lining | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
now world-famous football team celebrate their Premier League | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
victory, with an open top bus parade. | :13:19. | :13:19. | |
Sophie Raworth is there for us tonight, and there's | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
Massive in fact, by the looks of it! It is extraordinary! | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
There are at least 100,000 people on the streets of Leicester this | :13:31. | :13:41. | |
evening, to watch their team show off the Premier League trophy. This | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
city is celebrating like never before. It is awash with blue. The | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
Leicester City team, champions for the first time in the club's 132 | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
year history. There they are on board their open top buses, and | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
heading towards Victoria Park, where they are going to continue partying | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
this evening. People have been lining the streets for hours, just | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
to get a glimpse of the team. They defied all the odds, puzzled the | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
pundits and pulled off a stunning victory that will go down in | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
sporting history. They went from 5000-1 outsiders to champions in | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
just one season. It is not surprising that they are partying | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
like this tonight, as Sian Lloyd reports. | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
A welcome home for the champions. Up to 100,000 people have been making | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
their way into Leicester City centre to line the parade route. It is | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
something we will never see in my lifetime again, ever, so I wanted to | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
be year today. I remember 1947 when they were in the cup then, but this | :14:47. | :14:53. | |
is better. Yes! Aqua blue 100% better. Blue is the colour, and in | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
this shop, it belongs to Leicester. Proper Leicester City colour, this | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
is. The family business has been making saris for almost half a | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
century and blue has never been so popular. When brides and grooms come | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
in and asked for royal blue or navy, now they are asking for Leicester | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
City blue. It's so exciting to be in Leicester, born in Leicester at this | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
present moment in time. Come on you Jamie Vardy party. At the historic | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
market, club memorabilia is crowding out usual fruit and veg. This is a | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
business opportunity not to be missed. I've already got Jamie Vardy | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
on my living room wall and now I'm going to be putting Schmeichel on my | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
living room wall so I've got them both together. When the remains of | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
King Richard III were buried in this cathedral, Leicester found fame | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
around the world. It is still riding high. 12 months ago, we buried a | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
king here and we had the eyes of the world on us. Since then, we have had | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
visitors from around the world coming to Leicester. This is bigger | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
by far than that. It's bringing visitors and of course, investment | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
in the economy that we never dreamt of. Schoolchildren are sharing in | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
the excitement. Leicester City's win has made a lasting impression on | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
these youngsters. It has really inspired me to become a big football | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
fan and actually play it. Even if you are in the lower leagues, if you | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
put your mind to it, you can achieve anything. Andy Ryan the street, you | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
can really feel the excitement. These people are moments away from | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
catching a glint of their heroes. Leicester City's unexpected | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
achievement has been marked by a series of celebrations already. But | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
this victory parade is a chance for the city as a whole to be part of | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
the club's greatest season ever. Sian Lloyd, BBC News, Leicester. | :16:44. | :16:53. | |
Extraordinary scenes. The crowds are following the open top buses, as | :16:54. | :17:07. | |
they had towards Victoria park, where to write tonight there will be | :17:08. | :17:16. | |
fireworks and a party. The mayor of Leicester, very proud man, lifelong | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
fan - extraordinary scenes? It is amazing, I don't think there has | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
ever been anything like this in the history of the Premier League. And | :17:23. | :17:24. | |
in the 2000 years history of Leicester, there has certainly not | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
been a party like this one. What does it do for Leicester? We thought | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
it was big just 12 months ago when we buried the remains of King | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
Richard III. We thought it was big when his ABN laid on the local park. | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
But this is bigger, many times bigger, than the two of them put | :17:39. | :17:40. | |
together. They thought that up to 100,000 people would turn up. You | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
look at these crowds behind us, it looks like the whole city is out | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
here. That's 300,000 people! It does not like that, doesn't it? The whole | :17:48. | :17:54. | |
city is very proud, of course. Thank you very much for joining us. Back | :17:55. | :17:56. | |

prisons in England and Wales has And still to come - | :18:03. | :18:11. | |
Manchester United, the evacuation of Old Trafford yesterday, | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
the dummy bomb, and who's to blame. On the News Channel, continuing | :18:16. | :18:30. | |
coverage as Leicester City parade through the city with the Premier | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
League trophy. We will be speaking to players and fans throughout the | :18:38. | :18:38. | |
evening. The head of the security firm | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
which carried out a training exercise at Old Trafford has | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
admitted he failed to recover a dummy devise which caused | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
the stadium to be evacuated before Manchester United's | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
game with Bournemouth. Chris Reid said it was a genuine | :18:50. | :18:51. | |
mistake and apologised to fans attending the game | :18:52. | :18:53. | |
for the problems his failure The dummy pipe bomb was subsequently | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
blown up by bomb disposal experts. Here's our sports editor, | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
Dan Roan. The match has been abandoned for | :19:04. | :19:16. | |
today on police advice... It was the blunder that left Manchester United | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
red-faced, Old Trafford being evacuated yesterday's after a fake | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
bomb was left behind from a training exercise last Wednesday, but only | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
found shortly before kick-off. The first time a Premier League match | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
has been abandoned due to a security alert. This was a fiasco, but not an | :19:32. | :19:38. | |
amusing one. Causing massive inconvenience to tens of thousands | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
of people. I think Manchester United need to apologise very, very | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
seriously to their supporters. In a statement this evening, the | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
executive vice-chairman of Manchester United insisted they were | :19:51. | :19:50. | |
not to blame, saying... Today, the head of the company | :19:51. | :20:10. | |
involved apologised. I made a mistake. The item, as you can see, | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
was not recovered. I had a similar item in my bag. I saw, made the | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
mistake of thinking that the item in the WC had been brought back, as had | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
the other items which I had checked back. United States spectators can | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
watch tomorrow's match for free. But that does not cost all of the -- | :20:33. | :20:39. | |
cover all of the travelling costs for fans. How much it cost you only | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
about ?3000. It has always been a dream to come here. Will you be able | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
to come tomorrow night? No, we're leaving in the morning. Tomorrow | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
night, thousands of fans will return here for the rearranged final | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
fixture of the season. Even though this was an embarrassing mistake | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
rather than anything more sinister, it does serve as a timely reminder | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
of football's sense of vulnerability ahead of a tournament where security | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
will be a greater concern than ever. In the wake of the terror attack at | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
the Stade de France in Paris, security has been tightened at major | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
sporting venues. With the European Championships in France less than a | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
month away, yesterday's will only have heightened anxiety, even though | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
it was a mistake, not malicious. The Chancellor George Osborne has | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
said the economic debate over whether Britain should stay | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
in the EU or leave is over. Speaking at Stansted Airport, | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
alongside former Labour Chancellor Ed Balls, | :21:36. | :21:37. | |
Mr Osborne said an exit from the European Union would be | :21:38. | :21:39. | |
"a one-way ticket to a poorer The Leave campaign hit back, | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
pointing to a letter from 300 business leaders | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
supporting their cause. Here's our political | :21:46. | :21:47. | |
editor Laura Kuenssberg. Please welcome George Osborne, | :21:48. | :21:49. | |
Ed Balls and Vince Cable. Travel companions, for the day | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
at least. The Remain campaign produced its own plane, | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
with three captains, all claiming the | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
argument is settled. There's a reason that the three | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
of us are standing here today, putting aside our very | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
obvious differences. The economic argument | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
is beyond doubt. Leaving the EU is a one-way ticket | :22:09. | :22:16. | |
to a poorer Britain. That argument ain't over, | :22:17. | :22:24. | |
just cos these three say so. Mr Cable, you called | :22:25. | :22:26. | |
George Osborne very cynical. Chancellor, the Tories | :22:27. | :22:28. | |
called Mr Balls the most Who asked who to come today and how | :22:29. | :22:30. | |
did those phone calls go? There are certain moments | :22:31. | :22:40. | |
in a country's history where judgments and decisions | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
are so important, that they We have common agreement on this | :22:43. | :22:44. | |
issue, that the case for remaining But the warnings are all one way, | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
and they only work if voters As campaign stunts go, | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
this is a real show of brute force. It is not just about safety | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
in numbers, but a political attempt to close down | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
the referendum's main argument. But the air has not all gone | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
out of the other side. Campaigns are fought | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
on the street, too. We have got to have | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
straight bananas. Out campaigners in Witham in Essex | :23:21. | :23:28. | |
were doing a brisk lunchtime trade. I've never done anything | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
like this in my life. I'm 79, never been involved | :23:32. | :23:34. | |
in any of it but I feel so strongly, not about money, | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
but about my country. I don't believe a word that Cameron | :23:38. | :23:39. | |
is threatening us with. I think when it comes | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
to the grassroots level, You don't want to | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
leave the EU, do you? Babies, balloons and chief | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
Outer Boris Johnson on tour When you look at the EU now, | :23:54. | :23:55. | |
it makes me think of some badly designed undergarment | :23:56. | :24:07. | |
that has now become too tight in some places, | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
far too tight, far too constricting, and dangerously | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
loose in other places. Anyway, knickers to | :24:18. | :24:25. | |
the pessimists, how about that? This is about spirit and sentiment | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
as well as the numbers, and nothing in the end is settled | :24:29. | :24:31. | |
until you have your say. All aboard for Britain remaining | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
in the European Union. Now throughout the EU referendum | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
campaign, we'll be hearing from you about what matters | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
as you make up your minds about how Tonight, in the first of our series, | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
here's Jon Rudoni from I've been flying balloons | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
for a living for 25 years. There is something quite | :24:51. | :24:59. | |
romantic and attractive about the United Kingdom | :25:00. | :25:09. | |
pulling up the drawbridge and rowing our own boat for a change | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
and regaining some sovereignty. My business head certainly says | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
that we need to stay in Europe and we need to keep our economy | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
steadily growing and we need to keep There is a small part of me that | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
thinks it would be exciting, maybe slightly mischievous, | :25:28. | :25:36. | |
and it might even unite the country if we suddenly felt that our little | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
island was once again adrift My children are strongly pro-Europe | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
and they are excited about the future and | :25:44. | :25:50. | |
what their lives may hold. Having those open doors | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
across the whole European market, I think, gives | :25:54. | :25:55. | |
them more opportunity. My parents are fairly | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
strongly against Europe. What is lacking is concrete | :26:01. | :26:03. | |
empirical evidence that we can There does not seem | :26:04. | :26:12. | |
to be a clear answer. I think there would be quite a lot | :26:13. | :26:24. | |
of damage done if the It would send out a message | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
that we were a divided nation. And that was Jon Rudoni, | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
who has not yet decided whether he'll vote to stay | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
in or leave the EU, floating Lovely weather out there right now. | :26:37. | :26:54. | |
Not for absolutely everybody. Tomorrow, some changes on the way, | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
with some rain coming in off the Atlantic overnight. Here are the | :26:59. | :27:04. | |
weather front more piling up in the Atlantic. This is this week's | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
weather. It is all coming this way. Cloud and spells of rain coming our | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
way. This evening, it is clear. Temperatures, despite the clear | :27:17. | :27:19. | |
skies will not be giving away too much. Here is the edge of that rain, | :27:20. | :27:28. | |
just nudging into Ireland in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Some | :27:29. | :27:39. | |
rain around across Wales and the south-west of England. It will not | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
be desperately heavy. Eastern areas should have some sunshine. Middle | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
part of the week, low pressure parking itself across the UK. | :27:48. | :27:56. | |
Thicker cloud, outbreaks of rain. It does dry out later in the afternoon | :27:57. | :28:02. | |
across these western areas. Here, we could get some heavy downpours. | :28:03. | :28:13. | |
Fairly uniform temperatures. Another low pressure coming through during | :28:14. | :28:20. | |
the course of Thursday. Once again, we will have bits and pieces of | :28:21. | :28:29. | |
rain. So, a next week. | :28:30. | :28:37. |
