:02:01. > :02:07.most of its Windows, they are trying to pull of where it has come to rest

:02:08. > :02:08.and get it on a recovery lorry. The need to get it shifted so they can

:02:09. > :02:11.get it open again. Many passengers were picked up

:02:12. > :02:13.from a farm beside the motorway and driven back up the M5,

:02:14. > :02:16.although Barinder's two young boys were too terrified to get

:02:29. > :02:38.and is being held by police. The lorry was stopped

:02:39. > :02:40.by officers near Ilminster. Those inside have been treated

:02:41. > :03:02.for suspected dehydration. They told officers they came from

:03:03. > :03:05.Kashmir and Eritrea and board of the vehicle on the continent. The lorry

:03:06. > :03:11.caught the ferry from Calais and was heading towards Devon. Drivers on

:03:12. > :03:13.the 833 alerted officers when they heard the people inside calling for

:03:14. > :03:30.help and the search operation began. They said they got on at Calais, how

:04:13. > :04:14.will carry on speaking to the driver and will decide whether it will lead

:04:15. > :04:17.to a charge. Earlier I spoke to Andrew Wallis `

:04:18. > :04:19.the chief executive of the Bristol`based charity called

:04:20. > :04:21.Unseen, which helps victims I began by asking him how the people

:04:22. > :04:31.found in the lorry will be treated. Tonight they will be given

:04:32. > :04:35.accommodation, food and water and tomorrow what will happen is they

:04:36. > :04:38.will be interviewed by police and immigration services to work out

:04:39. > :04:43.whether they have been trafficked. If they have, they will be put into

:04:44. > :04:52.a national referral mechanism and they can access the Siri support. ``

:04:53. > :04:57.necessary support. Are these cases going to become more common?

:04:58. > :05:00.Unfortunately, they are, the statistics are shown us that the

:05:01. > :05:06.number of victims is increasing, last year it was by 47%. We know

:05:07. > :05:12.from reports that the number of people trying to come to the

:05:13. > :05:19.country. Is this a problem that will continue, due to the situation in

:05:20. > :05:21.the Middle East? Yes, the problem is you have large chunks of the world

:05:22. > :05:27.suffering violence, incredible poverty, war and conflict, like the

:05:28. > :05:32.Middle East. If people say, we can get you out of this situation, to

:05:33. > :05:37.the west, you can earn good money, that will be a huge draw for people.

:05:38. > :05:42.They want to come not only to the UK but also Western Europe. Do you

:05:43. > :05:46.think the authorities have a grip on this situation? It is patchy, there

:05:47. > :05:52.are still more training and awareness that needs to happen to

:05:53. > :05:53.identify people correctly and I understand the level of criminality

:05:54. > :06:00.involved, yes, it is better than it involved, yes, it is better than it

:06:01. > :06:05.was but there is still room for improvement. Charities like you can

:06:06. > :06:11.help the police to identify more. We work with the police, educating them

:06:12. > :06:15.to the needs are, and for them to treat these people as victims. I

:06:16. > :06:24.applaud with avian and Somerset police have done, they recognise

:06:25. > :06:39.they have victims of a crime here. Onto football:

:06:40. > :06:49.We are back tomorrow morning. Now, I leave you with the weather.

:06:50. > :06:56.A fairly quiet night to come, the showers of earlier have given way to

:06:57. > :07:00.clear spells and it should stay largely trying to push into the

:07:01. > :07:08.early hours. The breeze is easing, so it should be a cold one. In the

:07:09. > :07:17.countryside, we could see 5 degrees. A cold start tomorrow but equally, a

:07:18. > :07:19.bright one. Still not called north`westerly breeze blowing,

:07:20. > :07:26.temperatures may get higher than today and still struggling. For

:07:27. > :07:27.Thursday, thickening cloud and some outbreaks of rain, especially later

:07:28. > :07:33.in the day. looking at the risk of showers for

:07:34. > :07:46.Friday though. Good evening. Autumn, August. It's

:07:47. > :07:51.an easy slip of the tongue to make, but the two do seem mixed up at the

:07:52. > :07:54.moment. Tomorrow morning, you could be forgiven for thinking it's

:07:55. > :08:00.October, as you step out the door. It's going to be cold. Why so

:08:01. > :08:06.chilly, well, because we are drawing the air down from the north and the

:08:07. > :08:09.brisk breeze dies down. The showers disappear and the temperatures

:08:10. > :08:15.tumble. Towns and cities nine or ten. In rural areas widely down to

:08:16. > :08:20.four or five degrees and some places just two or three above freezing. A

:08:21. > :08:24.cold start in the morning. Don't be fooled by the sun. It will be

:08:25. > :08:28.chilly, as you step out the door. There will be a sprinkling of

:08:29. > :08:32.showers over Wales and through the day, we'll see a few more scattered

:08:33. > :08:37.showers developing. For many of us, much of the day will be dry and

:08:38. > :08:42.bright. And in the south, temperatures a degree or so higher

:08:43. > :08:50.than today. Still generally about 17 or 18 C, but one or two places may

:08:51. > :08:51.get up to 20. Yes, it will feel
