:04:50. > :04:52.in the short term, I will not be saving for a pension. In the long
:04:53. > :04:55.term it is something to think about. The government's also promising
:04:56. > :04:59.a new law to allow voters to throw out MPs between elections,

:05:11. > :05:16.the voice of Wales in the UK Cabinet, where was the Welsh boys in
:05:17. > :05:25.today's Queen's Speech. There are 11 bills coming through. One is the
:05:26. > :05:28.Wales Bill and that will be completed in the Commons this month
:05:29. > :05:34.and in Parliament by the end of the year. It gives taxation powers,
:05:35. > :05:38.potentially, to the Welsh Assembly. But there are a lot of other bills
:05:39. > :05:44.which are not specifically Welsh but do benefit Wales a lot. The pension
:05:45. > :05:47.bills are very important to Wales. I think there will be a lot of Welsh
:05:48. > :05:53.pensioners or people approaching retirement who will welcome that.
:05:54. > :05:58.Hasn't the Wales Bill been overtaken by the Conservatives offering
:05:59. > :06:00.Scotland full taxation powers rather than the limited once you are
:06:01. > :06:05.prepared to offer the Welsh government? This is a government
:06:06. > :06:10.Bill, the policies that were announced on Monday are Conservative
:06:11. > :06:16.policies and they will not kick in until after the next general
:06:17. > :06:21.election. So no change for Wales? No plans to change the Wales Bill at
:06:22. > :06:24.all. But after the next general election, there will be a further
:06:25. > :06:27.appeal where we will look at the recommendations of the Silk
:06:28. > :06:32.Commission so there will be more legislation coming through. You
:06:33. > :06:37.mentioned pensions, but we heard there from people, lots of them have
:06:38. > :06:41.not even thought about saving for their pension, let alone having a
:06:42. > :06:46.pension pot they can blow on the Lamborghini. I am pretty sure none
:06:47. > :06:49.of them would want to blow it on a Lamborghini but if people can be
:06:50. > :06:53.trusted to be sufficiently prudent to look after their own pension
:06:54. > :06:55.arrangements by saving for many years, there is no reason why they
:06:56. > :07:01.should have to be buying an annuity. Benefits, pensions and tax credits
:07:02. > :07:05.make up more of our incomes in Wales The latest figures show they formed
:07:06. > :07:11.a bigger proportion of incomes The research from the Office
:07:12. > :07:15.of National Statistics also suggests people here have had the
:07:16. > :07:19.second largest rise in the UK in the Our economics correspondent
:07:20. > :07:25.Sarah Dickins has been looking These new figures tell us what
:07:26. > :07:32.people have to live off and not just from incomes
:07:33. > :07:35.from employment or rents but also from welfare payments, be they
:07:36. > :07:40.pensions , benefits or tax credits. In other words,
:07:41. > :07:43.what people have to spend or save. On average in Wales in 2012,
:07:44. > :07:48.we had just more than ?14,500 once taxes have been paid
:07:49. > :07:52.and benefits received. That's an increase
:07:53. > :07:57.on the year before and the second The figures also show us that
:07:58. > :08:04.the east of Wales has seen a greater increase than the west,
:08:05. > :08:09.but both are from a low base. The lowest household income level is
:08:10. > :08:12.found in the Gwent Valleys at just under ?13,500, while the highest is
:08:13. > :08:18.in Newport and Monmouthshire That's the narrowest gap
:08:19. > :08:27.between incomes for any part of the UK, suggesting Welsh incomes
:08:28. > :08:31.are less divided. But even that number
:08:32. > :08:34.for Monmouthshire is still Just over a quarter of income
:08:35. > :08:40.here comes from pensions, tax It's the highest in the UK
:08:41. > :09:07.and higher than five years earlier, Day-to-day, we are seeing the
:09:08. > :09:15.opposite. Most people have not got enough income to cover their
:09:16. > :09:21.essential outgoings, let alone anything else. In this area, that is
:09:22. > :09:23.not the case, I would say. We've also heard today that one
:09:24. > :09:26.in six people in Wales now work from home, helped
:09:27. > :09:29.by better internet connections. On average, they earn about ?2
:09:30. > :09:33.an hour more than other workers and home working is most common in Powys
:09:34. > :09:36.and Ceredigion, where more than one The overall message
:09:37. > :09:41.from these range of figures today is that we are less divided in terms
:09:42. > :09:44.of income than other parts of the UK, but our richest areas are
:09:45. > :09:48.still poorer than the UK average and we are getting even more
:09:49. > :09:52.dependent on social payments. Well,
:09:53. > :09:55.city regions have been hailed as one way of transforming our economy,
:09:56. > :09:58.but now one of the key people behind the idea is warning Wales may lack
:09:59. > :10:02.the vision to turn it into reality. Doctor Elizabeth Haywood recommended
:10:03. > :10:05.the Welsh Government should set up the regions,
:10:06. > :10:08.but now she says that without a leader to drive them forward
:10:09. > :10:11.the opportunity could be wasted. City regions have been seen as
:10:12. > :10:18.a way to develop the economy, with Swansea and Cardiff at the centre of
:10:19. > :10:22.a larger region aimed at attracting Two have already been set up,

:10:41. > :10:43.they should be established says they fail to work
:10:44. > :10:57.unless a charismatic leader is We need a person or several people
:10:58. > :11:01.who will drag these kicking and screaming and help them to deliver.
:11:02. > :11:07.Whether you like them or dislike them, we don't have a Boris as in
:11:08. > :11:10.London, we do need some big visions to make sure that people get excited
:11:11. > :11:13.about it. There's already been criticism
:11:14. > :11:16.that including rural areas like Pembrokeshire in a so-called city
:11:17. > :11:19.region makes no sense, while some regeneration experts don't believe
:11:20. > :11:27.the strategy will work at all. We need to figure out where do
:11:28. > :11:30.people work, where do people live and where two people play? We need
:11:31. > :11:37.to plan that on a regional basis. Supporters of city regions point to
:11:38. > :11:40.where they've been successful But they admit it could take up to
:11:41. > :11:45.20 years to find out whether And you can see more on that story

:12:36. > :12:38.employ dozens of east European and Labour have accused him
:12:39. > :12:42.of bare-faced hypocrisy, but Mr Gill insists he's done

:13:11. > :13:13.have had contact with Nathan Gill tonight and he said it was a
:13:14. > :13:18.business that employs 200 people. Because of a high turnover of staff,
:13:19. > :13:23.a few dozen were from the Far East and Eastern Europe to help him run
:13:24. > :13:27.the business. We should say, this is a company that has since collapsed
:13:28. > :13:32.in the financial crisis but has inevitably faced criticism because
:13:33. > :13:37.of the apparent contradiction with UKIP's policy against the free
:13:38. > :13:45.movement of labour within the EU. How damaging is this? The Labour MP
:13:46. > :13:48.for Neath, Peter Hain, as accused them of barefaced hypocrisy,
:13:49. > :13:52.particularly in the light of the way he was elected on an
:13:53. > :13:56.anti-immigration platform. What he is referring to is the kind of
:13:57. > :14:00.language Nathan Gill used in debates on BBC is when he said people had
:14:01. > :14:04.come up to him complaining when there were no jobs for young people
:14:05. > :14:08.and yet there were a lot of foreign-born workers and he said
:14:09. > :14:11.that did not make sense. The question is, how does that square
:14:12. > :14:18.with the fact that Nathan Gill used to employ foreign workers when he
:14:19. > :14:22.ran a company? What he is saying is, there is no hypocrisy here, and he

:15:03. > :15:05.out through the door. Today, he said they were amateurs
:15:06. > :15:23.and, while he doesn't look for The so-called fracas was in fact an
:15:24. > :15:27.armed robbery. Until 84-year-old Dennis Trounce put a stop to it.

:15:45. > :15:50.all wooded. It was on Sunday, 9pm, when two masked men ran into the
:15:51. > :15:54.shop. One of them climbed over the counter and in the CCTV footage you
:15:55. > :16:01.can see he had a knife in his hand. The other chap, more sensibly,
:16:02. > :16:08.stayed by the door. I said, what is going on? They said, give us the
:16:09. > :16:16.money. I said, of course, certainly. He said, I have got a knife. I said,
:16:17. > :16:19.were reserved? When he was trying to open the till he needed both hands
:16:20. > :16:27.so we put the knife back in his pocket. It is not the first time he
:16:28. > :16:41.has tackled robbers. Last time he was 76. I was younger them. But you
:16:42. > :16:45.have not learned your lesson. No. But he says really it is not a

:17:08. > :17:10.as a tribute to Welsh veterans Throughout the day,
:17:11. > :17:14.there have been special events in the Dutch capital, remembering
:17:15. > :17:17.the sacrifice made by Welsh troops as they fought to liberate the city
:17:18. > :17:20.of S-Hertogenbosch in 1944. It was a victory that came at a high
:17:21. > :17:31.price, as Carwyn Jones now reports. For 70 years the Dutch city
:17:32. > :17:35.of S-Hertogenbosch has commemorated the hard fought battle that led to
:17:36. > :17:39.its liberation from Nazi control. For five long days in 1944, soldiers
:17:40. > :17:44.from the 53rd Welsh Division fought tooth and nail with German forces -
:17:45. > :17:49.around 8,000 in total - who had been given orders from Hitler to
:17:50. > :17:53.hold the city at all costs. Peter Davies from Maesycymmer was
:17:54. > :18:08.there and still remembers The battle was fairly hectic right
:18:09. > :18:13.from the word go. The Germans obviously resisted and the infantry
:18:14. > :18:18.were getting some heavy attacks on them. We thought we had pushed most
:18:19. > :18:22.of the Germans out. But they came back in at night.
:18:23. > :18:24.Getting control of the bridges over the main canal
:18:25. > :18:27.in the city was crucial if the allies were to succeed.
:18:28. > :18:30.In a daring manoeuvre, Welsh troops managed to cross one
:18:31. > :18:34.Once in the city, it was close quarter street fighting.
:18:35. > :18:38.In the thick of it was Bill Allen, just 22 years old at the time.
:18:39. > :18:46.It was house to house fighting, more or less. You had to go in and clear
:18:47. > :18:48.each house as you went along. It was a city so there was no actual clean
:18:49. > :18:53.areas, it was all buildings. After five days of heavy fighting,
:18:54. > :18:57.the battle was won and the people of S-Hertogenbosch welcomed
:18:58. > :18:59.their liberators with open arms. For four long years, they'd been
:19:00. > :19:02.living under a brutal Nazi regime. The Netherlands has never forgotten
:19:03. > :19:08.the courage and sacrifice Today,
:19:09. > :19:12.children from the S-Hertogenbosch met Wales manager Chris Coleman
:19:13. > :19:15.in a public display of gratitude. 70 years on,
:19:16. > :19:27.the ties are as strong as ever. Of course, we are grateful until
:19:28. > :19:29.today and will stay grateful for this big help that we really needed
:19:30. > :19:32.in those days. The liberation of S-Hertogenbosch
:19:33. > :19:36.was of huge strategic importance. It allowed the allies to continue
:19:37. > :19:38.their advance into Germany. But for the Dutch people,
:19:39. > :19:41.the victory meant so much more. Visit S-Hertogenbosch today
:19:42. > :19:44.and you'll still find their tributes to Welsh soldiers, 146 in all,
:19:45. > :19:47.who fought and died defending Well, we saw the Wales manager
:19:48. > :19:52.Chris Coleman and some of his players taking time out to remember
:19:53. > :19:56.those who lost their lives. Tonight they're playing
:19:57. > :19:58.the Netherlands in Amsterdam. Wales are without Gareth Bale,
:19:59. > :20:00.Aaron Ramsey and Ashley Williams. Earlier, I caught-up with
:20:01. > :20:02.the former Wales captain Kevin Ratcliffe and began by asking
:20:03. > :20:16.him, what's Chris Coleman hoping to It is a game he can look at and
:20:17. > :20:20.think, you might come up against this type of game towards the end of
:20:21. > :20:24.the campaign, you might need to go away against a team like the Dutch
:20:25. > :20:30.and get a point and maybe set your side at two not concede. He has got
:20:31. > :20:33.to see what players he has got available and what system of the
:20:34. > :20:38.players can adapt to. The other thing is, it is giving a great
:20:39. > :20:42.opportunity to lads on the fringe to show what they can do. The Dutch
:20:43. > :20:46.coach has said he is the straight did that so many key players for
:20:47. > :20:54.Wales are missing. Any danger it will be a one-sided affair? I think
:20:55. > :21:01.it will be, no doubt. We have only got around six goals in us. That is
:21:02. > :21:05.not really a lot. One of their players might have doubled that so
:21:06. > :21:10.it is going to be very difficult. The fitness level is going to be
:21:11. > :21:14.something to look at for Chris. You will probably see the full
:21:15. > :21:17.allocation of service being used. And next up for Wales, trying to
:21:18. > :21:24.qualify for the European Championships. Are they set up to
:21:25. > :21:29.finally qualify? Well, we have got a stronger squad than we have ever
:21:30. > :21:34.had. We have got what I classed as too, maybe three world-class players
:21:35. > :21:39.if you count Ashley Williams, Aaron Ramsey and definitely Gareth Bale. I
:21:40. > :21:42.am sure we can come very close if not succeed this time. Enjoy the

:22:38. > :22:41.running her gym hundreds of miles away from the Glasgow spotlight, but
:22:42. > :22:45.when she started coaching some budding young lifters, it real walk
:22:46. > :22:56.a passion that had lain dormant for a few years. I lifted 25 kilos above
:22:57. > :23:01.qualification with no training for two and a half years. There was a
:23:02. > :23:06.realisation of, it is still there, can I still do this? Since November
:23:07. > :23:12.last year, it has been a little more focused. There is a drive again, and
:23:13. > :23:18.ambition again, and it is there. The fire is back. She will return to the
:23:19. > :23:22.games with a huge reputation to defend. She was champion in
:23:23. > :23:28.Manchester and Melbourne and took silver four years ago. But as she
:23:29. > :23:31.begins the competition in Glasgow, she will be carrying extra
:23:32. > :23:37.responsibilities as a coach. Christy Williams is the new girl on the
:23:38. > :23:40.block. A former Fleet works as a school receptionist. 18 months ago
:23:41. > :23:44.she had never even picked up a weightlifting bar but with Michaela
:23:45. > :23:52.showing her how it is then she has proved to be a natural. Ecstatic. To
:23:53. > :23:57.be training with her and hopefully to be at an international with her
:23:58. > :24:02.would be a dream come true because she is a legend in weightlifting and
:24:03. > :24:06.she is a good friend to me. I haven't seen her on the telly in the
:24:07. > :24:12.Olympics and things but I had never see myself doing it. I thought, I
:24:13. > :24:20.may as well give it a try, I have got nothing to lose. I love it. She
:24:21. > :24:25.has potential but she needs to work hard, as all athletes to. My test as
:24:26. > :24:31.a coach will be whether I can coach other athletes to break my records.
:24:32. > :24:36.The former athlete is promising her dual role will not take away from
:24:37. > :24:42.the coaching efforts. I believe in my ability and I am putting myself
:24:43. > :24:45.there to be shot at. Bring it on. That is what competition is all
:24:46. > :24:51.about. Am I still young enough to do this? We will have to wait and see.
:24:52. > :24:57.Let's get the weather now. A break from the rain tomorrow?
:24:58. > :25:01.A big improvement tomorrow but disappointing today.
:25:02. > :25:05.More like November than June. The radar shows the rain.
:25:06. > :25:10.Some of it heavy and chilly as well. Only 10 Celsius in Swansea.
:25:11. > :25:14.Parts of the north dried-up this afternoon with a high of 14 Celsius
:25:15. > :25:19.The good news is, tomorrow will be much drier, sunnier and warmer
:25:20. > :25:25.This evening, still some rain and showers, but overnight turning
:25:26. > :25:29.drier and cleaer, although the north may see a little rain.
:25:30. > :25:35.Temperatures in rural Powys falling as low as six Celsius.
:25:36. > :25:37.Here's the picture for 8.00am in the morning.
:25:38. > :25:40.Much better than today. Generally dry.
:25:41. > :25:48.Good visibility as well with a light to moderate breeze.
:25:49. > :25:52.So, much drier and brighter tomorrow after today's rain.
:25:53. > :26:00.Just the odd shower, for example on the Brecon Beacons.
:26:01. > :26:06.Top temperatures 14 to 18 Celsius with a light to moderate breeze.
:26:07. > :26:09.Tomorrow night, dry with some high cloud spreading from the south.
:26:10. > :26:12.The temperature in Ruthin falling to 6 Celsius.
:26:13. > :26:16.Friday, plenty of dry weather. Some cloud and hazy sunshine.
:26:17. > :26:20.Just a few spots of rain. Warmer with a south-easterly
:26:21. > :26:24.By the end of the week we'll be in a battle ground with warm
:26:25. > :26:30.and humid air on the near continent and cooler air over the Atlantic.
:26:31. > :26:34.So, Friday night into Saturday will turn humid with a risk of some heavy
:26:35. > :26:41.There is a Met Office Yellow warning in force.
:26:42. > :26:45.The worst of the thunderstorms may occur in England on Saturday but
:26:46. > :26:48.Wales could be affected as well. Sunday will be better.
:26:49. > :26:52.Some sunshine, a few showers and feeling fresher.
:26:53. > :26:55.So the unstable weather is set to continue.
:26:56. > :27:15.Some sunshine and warmer but no sign yet of a long spell of fine weather.
:27:16. > :27:21.In the last Queen's Speech before the general election, the coalition
:27:22. > :27:26.government has set out its plans for its final year in power. There was
:27:27. > :27:28.also confirmation of plans to give Wales more power over taxation and
:27:29. > :27:31.investment. I'll have an update for you
:27:32. > :27:34.at 8.00pm and a full round up That's Wales Today.
:27:35. > :27:39.Thanks for watching.
