:01:50. > :01:52.political party to use the name of the murdered soldier, Lee Rigby, on

:01:53. > :02:03.Welsh ballot papers for next month's European election. Here's our

:02:04. > :02:05.political reporter, James Williams. Fusilier Lee Rigby was murdered in

:02:16. > :02:20.Michael Adebolajo in what the judge called a barbaric incident as he

:02:50. > :02:56.apologised to Lee Rigby's family. Jenny Watson, the chairperson of

:02:57. > :02:59.their Electoral Commission, said Britain First's slogan should never

:03:00. > :03:03.have been permitted and went on to say that although it would be used

:03:04. > :03:07.in other elections, the watchdog cannot change the ballot papers for

:03:08. > :03:15.next month's European elections. Before then, the Westminster Cabinet

:03:16. > :03:19.Office Minister is asking for a full investigation. He sent his letter to

:03:37. > :03:39.reopening it. The council decided to close it, despite local opposition,

:03:40. > :03:42.to save money. Campaigners want to take it over and run it as a social
