:00:00. > 3:59:59to change? Will they? Can they? Thank you. That is all from us for
:00:00. > :00:00.this evening. It The single most remarkable
:00:00. > :00:14.result last night was in Wales. Despite coming
:00:15. > :00:17.a close second to Labour in the county, UKIP's leader says
:00:18. > :00:20.it's his biggest win of the night. And on its third day around Wales
:00:21. > :00:24.the baton pays a visit to the If that ignites their passion, it is
:00:25. > :00:50.a brilliant thing. The UKIP leader Nigel Farage says
:00:51. > :00:54.his party's single most remarkable achievement last night was coming
:00:55. > :00:57.close to beating Labour in Wales. Labour topped the European
:00:58. > :01:00.election poll by just 4,000 votes. It means both parties retain a Welsh
:01:01. > :01:03.seat in the European parliament, as do the Conservatives and
:01:04. > :01:18.Plaid Cymru. Intense faces at the main can't show
:01:19. > :01:22.how tight it was. The UKIP candidate hoped he would top the poll. In the
:01:23. > :01:26.end, he was still jubilant after sending shock waves by coming
:01:27. > :01:31.second. Labours candidate insisted was the best ever Euro campaign. The
:01:32. > :01:36.Tories and Plaid Cymru were both at risk of losing a seat. In the end,
:01:37. > :01:40.relief as the four parties already representing Wales in Europe stay
:01:41. > :01:46.the same. But look beyond that and there are big changes. Labour topped
:01:47. > :01:50.the poll but it was short of votes required for the second seed that
:01:51. > :01:58.the party wanted. See how close UKIP was to beating Labour. The
:01:59. > :02:03.Conservatives have slipped back from five years ago. Meanwhile, Plaid
:02:04. > :02:09.Cymru kept theirs after speculation they looked from rubble. As the BBC
:02:10. > :02:21.results survey showed, Yupik picked up support in all parts of Wales.
:02:22. > :02:26.UKIP topped the poll across Britain. For the party leader, it was still
:02:27. > :02:30.highlight. The single most remarkable result last night was in
:02:31. > :02:35.Wales, where UKIP was just a few thousand votes away from beating the
:02:36. > :02:40.Labour Party in Wales. Dave and the Conservatives admit the clear
:02:41. > :02:48.messages being sent to the parties. They claim their supporters will
:02:49. > :02:53.return to them in general election. I really don't believe people in
:02:54. > :02:57.Wales want the sort of policies UKIP are offering. They don't want to get
:02:58. > :03:01.rid of the NHS, which is what UKIP are suggesting. They want to send a
:03:02. > :03:05.message to the main political parties. It would be churlish to say
:03:06. > :03:12.it wasn't a good night for UKIP. Only a third of the electorate
:03:13. > :03:24.actually voted. The Lib Dems came in sixth, behind the Greens. We worked
:03:25. > :03:29.very hard. Our members knocked on thousands of doors. We took on UKIP
:03:30. > :03:34.as well. Those two things has enabled us to retain our feet. How
:03:35. > :03:39.much has the political landscape in Wells changed as a result of what
:03:40. > :03:42.happened here last night? Things will be very different in the
:03:43. > :03:47.general election next year. One thing we do know now, and that is
:03:48. > :03:53.that UKIP is more than capable of taking votes away from not just the
:03:54. > :04:02.Tories, but across the political spectrum, and particularly from
:04:03. > :04:06.Labour. How much of a blow was this for
:04:07. > :04:12.Labour? They were hoping they would be able
:04:13. > :04:15.to send to Welsh MEPs to Brussels. In the end, they were relieved to
:04:16. > :04:22.topped the poll and be able to send one MEP. It is worth reflecting that
:04:23. > :04:29.UKIP came either first or second across every council area, across
:04:30. > :04:33.Wales last night. If there was a notion UKIP is some kind of English
:04:34. > :04:37.phenomenon, beaming with the concerns in England, I think that
:04:38. > :04:40.was put to bed last night with a lot of the concerns about immigration
:04:41. > :04:47.clearly felt and shared in parts of Wales. The big question is what
:04:48. > :04:54.impact will have in the general election. I think the response on
:04:55. > :04:56.the main parties today was a real hope and expectation that while some
:04:57. > :05:02.of their supporters may have flirted with UKIP, they will return to their
:05:03. > :05:04.natural home in the general election next year.
:05:05. > :05:07.Thank you. The Queen's Baton Relay continued
:05:08. > :05:09.its journey through Wales today. It spent the day at the
:05:10. > :05:12.Urdd Eisteddfod in Bala. Welcome to Bala, we are in the
:05:13. > :05:17.foothills of the Berwyn mountains and people have enjoyed the great
:05:18. > :05:21.weather as they explored the Maes. But there was no mistaking the main
:05:22. > :05:29.attraction the baton relay kicked off the cultural festival with a
:05:30. > :05:43.celebration of sporting achievement. Is moving at a gentler pace and he's
:05:44. > :05:47.used to, you when Thomas swats the relay for the 20 x 400 metre
:05:48. > :05:52.versions as he joined 19 young people from across the country to
:05:53. > :06:01.have the facts on along. It is amazing. The people have seen it and
:06:02. > :06:06.get the chance to touch it. A lot of kids get a bad rap. They are not
:06:07. > :06:13.bad. Sometimes they just need that fire in the belly. These teenagers
:06:14. > :06:18.have been chosen Fulgoni extra mile in anything from playing badminton
:06:19. > :06:24.and netball to coach Crosby and swimming, as well as volunteering in
:06:25. > :06:37.their local communities. Amazed. I could not believe it. The same with
:06:38. > :06:43.me. I have been camping overnight but it has all been worth it.
:06:44. > :06:47.Thousands of people from across Wales are showing of skills in
:06:48. > :06:51.music, art and language. This is as much a showcase for young talent as
:06:52. > :06:57.the Commonwealth games. It is a pleasure to support team Wales. It
:06:58. > :07:05.gives opportunities for the athletes. The Commonwealth Matt
:07:06. > :07:09.Scott made sure his arrival was noticed. It may be too went into the
:07:10. > :07:15.games begin, but the build-up is well underway. The Commonwealth
:07:16. > :07:27.button relay will hand over to Carmarthenshire tomorrow. Visitor
:07:28. > :07:33.numbers are wrong on the same day last year. The patent might be
:07:34. > :07:35.moving away, but a schools competition is happening here
:07:36. > :07:37.tonight. Now after decades of searching,
:07:38. > :07:40.the first and only moving footage It's been confirmed
:07:41. > :07:45.by experts that this is the poet, circled on your screen now,
:07:46. > :07:48.when he appeared as an extra in the feature film Pandora and the Flying
:07:49. > :07:57.Dutchman on Pendine Sands in 1951. And we'll have much more
:07:58. > :08:00.on that story tomorrow on Wales Today, and on the One Show
:08:01. > :08:06.at 7 tomorrow evening. After a fairly warm bank holiday
:08:07. > :08:19.Monday, is it going to last? We ended on a high but the weather
:08:20. > :08:26.is going downhill a bit. No pressure taking charge. There will be a
:08:27. > :08:30.little bit in the way of sunny spells in between showers. Tonight,
:08:31. > :08:35.we have this band of rain making its way over the East.
:08:36. > :08:49.Overnight temperatures of between seven and 12 Celsius, so a fairly
:08:50. > :08:58.mild night. Showers or longer spells of rain. Tomorrow morning, that rain
:08:59. > :09:03.band continues westwards. Once that clears, the showers get going from
:09:04. > :09:07.the East. Some torrential downpours possible, so we could see thundery
:09:08. > :09:15.outbreaks as well, with temperatures ranging between 12 and 15. Into
:09:16. > :09:25.tomorrow, we will lose the intensity of those showers, but there is more
:09:26. > :09:39.wet weather coming in. Wednesday is a bit of a miserable day. Cloudy for
:09:40. > :09:43.all of us. Remaining unsettled as we head toward the end of the week. I
:09:44. > :09:46.am hopeful we will see something more settled by the weekend. Here is
:09:47. > :09:51.today's picture. That's the latest news from
:09:52. > :09:53.across Wales. I'll be back with your late
:09:54. > :10:14.update just after 10.30 tonight. Good evening. If I were to conduct a
:10:15. > :10:18.straw poll about the weather events today, I suspect we would get a
:10:19. > :10:19.split decision. There
