Good evening from Points West. The news where

:00:00.:00:12.

Good evening from Points West. The votes have been counted in the south

:00:13.:00:17.

west European elections. A result is expected soon at the region`l count

:00:18.:00:21.

in Poole. The south west is electing six members of the European

:00:22.:00:29.

Parliament. Let's join our Political Editor who's there. What's the

:00:30.:00:36.

latest? We do not have a result I will give you a prediction hn

:00:37.:00:41.

minutes, but it is looking puiet. Those are a lecture in officials who

:00:42.:00:46.

have been getting the results `` election officials. They have adding

:00:47.:00:51.

them up and falling through the figures. Everyone is waiting

:00:52.:00:59.

downstairs. Candidates and party members who have come along to

:01:00.:01:03.

witness this important moment. No one knows exactly what it is going

:01:04.:01:07.

to be. The Conservatives had three members, UKIP won two last time and

:01:08.:01:18.

the Liberal Democrats had one. We can make a prediction. We think UKIP

:01:19.:01:24.

are going to come out on top. Two MEPs for them. We think the

:01:25.:01:28.

Conservatives will have to lark in the new European Parliament. It

:01:29.:01:32.

looks as if Labour have picked up the seat they wanted to get back,

:01:33.:01:35.

having lost their seat in the south`west last time. The fhnal

:01:36.:01:41.

seat, very close and indeed between the Greens and the Liberal

:01:42.:01:44.

Democrats. If the Greens take it that would mean the end of the

:01:45.:01:48.

career for Sir Graham Watson, the MEP for the south`west for 20 years.

:01:49.:01:53.

And coverage of the European election results continues now on

:01:54.:01:56.

your local radio station and on BBC One after this bulletin.

:01:57.:01:59.

A 33`year`old man has died `fter a crash on one of Swindon's btsiest

:02:00.:02:03.

roads. Another man, believed to be his father, is in hospital with

:02:04.:02:09.

serious injuries. 6:30am this morning, at a thme when

:02:10.:02:12.

the road would have been quhet, tragedy struck at the entrance to

:02:13.:02:16.

the Orbital Retail Park. It's thought both cars were travdlling in

:02:17.:02:19.

opposite directions along Thamesdown Drive when the collision happened.

:02:20.:02:23.

The cars ended up 100 yards away from each other after they hit. The

:02:24.:02:27.

passenger of the Nissan was Paul Winters from Swindon. He sadly died

:02:28.:02:32.

in hospital. His father, who was driving, was seriously injured and

:02:33.:02:35.

is currently in a stable condition in Southmead Hospital in Brhstol.

:02:36.:02:40.

Two men, also from Swindon, who were both in the blue Astra, havd been

:02:41.:02:43.

arrested on suspicion of catsing death by dangerous driving. The

:02:44.:02:48.

accident has affected access to the shopping centre here but police say

:02:49.:02:51.

that's unavoidable due to the loss of life and need to carry ott a full

:02:52.:02:55.

criminal investigation. While it is reasonably busy here during the day,

:02:56.:02:58.

this morning when the acciddnt happened there was hardly anybody

:02:59.:03:01.

about and police have appealed for witnesses to come forward. The roads

:03:02.:03:05.

are quite quiet at that timd of day, but there were people here. When the

:03:06.:03:10.

first police officers arrivdd, there were members of the public helping

:03:11.:03:14.

those at the scene and we would like to appeal for witnesses. Thdy can

:03:15.:03:17.

contact myself at police headquarters Devizes on the 101

:03:18.:03:22.

number. Of the two men arrested one has now been bailed and the other

:03:23.:03:25.

released without charge. Me`nwhile, police family liaison officdrs have

:03:26.:03:28.

been appointed to work with Paul Winters' relatives.

:03:29.:03:37.

The family of West Country sailor Paul Goslin have paid tribute to him

:03:38.:03:41.

as a wonderful family man, who will be missed by everyone that knew

:03:42.:03:45.

him". Mr Goslin and Steve W`rren, who were both from Somerset, are

:03:46.:03:48.

among four sailors missing `fter their yacht capsized in the

:03:49.:03:52.

Atlantic. In a statement his family say they're "struggling to come to

:03:53.:03:56.

terms with the fact Paul won't be found alive". Prayers have been said

:03:57.:04:00.

for the men in churches in the west today.

:04:01.:04:07.

We have seen some showers through today but tonight is often going to

:04:08.:04:12.

be a dry picture with some clear spells out there. We could see a

:04:13.:04:16.

little bit of mist and fog forming. Lows in towns and cities down to

:04:17.:04:20.

seven or nine degrees but it will be chilly in the countryside. Tomorrow

:04:21.:04:24.

starts for most of us on a bright note with a few sunny spells but we

:04:25.:04:28.

are likely to see some showdrs developing. These could be heavy and

:04:29.:04:31.

thundery perhaps but highs getting up to 16, 17, 18 degrees. Thereafter

:04:32.:04:39.

we are looking at quite an tnsettled picture through the working week.

:04:40.:04:43.

Some bright spells around btt also showers and more persistent spells

:04:44.:04:49.

of rain. Enjoy the rest of xour bank holiday.

:04:50.:04:53.

Points West is back with Brdakfast bulletins at 6:25am tomorrow. From

:04:54.:04:57.

all of us here, goodnight. Good evening to you. Tomorrow the

:04:58.:05:13.

weather will be a little like a box of chocolate, you don't know what

:05:14.:05:17.

you are going to get until you head out. The weather was clear cut

:05:18.:05:23.

today, sunshine in the Midlands and the north.

:05:24.:05:28.

Tomorrow, there's going to be a mix of everything across the country and

:05:29.:05:31.

it will be changing a lot from morning into the afternoon and into

:05:32.:05:35.

the evening. This is what the weather is going to look like in the

:05:36.:05:39.

early hours, rain in the south-east, showers dotted around across western

:05:40.:05:44.

areas, and as far as the headline goes for Bank Holiday Monday, we'll

:05:45.:05:49.

call it sunshine and thundery showers, because they'll be hefty

:05:50.:05:53.

later on in the afternoon on Monday. This is what it starts like in the

:05:54.:05:57.

course of the morning. Note it is splodges of blue indicating the

:05:58.:06:00.

rainfall. They keep changing and moving into different places, there

:06:01.:06:04.

is a lot of sunshine coming through. In terms of the thundery downpours,

:06:05.:06:10.

we think the worst will be through this portion here whereas across

:06:11.:06:12.
