A reckless decision - just one of the criticisms tonight | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
of plans to spend a billion pounds on a new M4 relief road | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
around Newport, which the Transport Minister has robustly defended. | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
There's been political reaction all day to the surprise announcement | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
yesterday, when Edwina Hart rejected a proposal to upgrade | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
an existing road, saying she would press ahead with plans for a brand | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
Running smoothly on the M4 at Newport tonight. | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
This is the one day when traffic chaos at the Brynglas tunnels may | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
helpful for the Welsh government as it tries to sell the idea | :00:51. | :00:56. | |
of spending ?1 billion on a new motorway to the south of the city. | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
Selling the idea is going to be a problem, | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
not only in areas like North Wales but within the Labour Party itself. | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
In an unusual development, a number of backbench Labour AM is | :01:10. | :01:20. | |
criticised the decision but today, the Transport and Economy Minister | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
Free speech hasn't been abolished in never been abolished | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
They feel passionately and they are entitled to say what | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
They consider their opinions to be valid and I | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
A projected time frame has been set out. | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
A local public enquiry a year later with the intention | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
The project should be competed in 2022. | :01:49. | :02:02. | |
Plaid Cymru hopes that they will never come as it ramps up | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
its opposition to the new road by refusing to take part in any | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
We can't work to negotiate a budget with the Welsh government | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
which has taken such a reckless decision to use up the entire | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
The timing of the announcement was a problem for some | :02:16. | :02:27. | |
because it came before a cross-party Assembly committee was due to | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
We have seen a draft copy which says there are grave concerns | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
The integrity of the consultation could be | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
critical if there is a legal challenge, which the environmental | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
group Friends of the Earth says it is considering because of the impact | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
We have got an indication of how polarised people are | :02:46. | :02:55. | |
on this subject because for all those who have said it was reckless, | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
there were others who have been campaigning for this for years. | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
I don't think we should be surprised because of the vast amounts | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
of money involved and the legacy element of this project. | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
The widow of a man who died in an accident | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
A woman who stabbed a businessman in the neck in his car has pleaded | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
Swansea Crown Court heard Katie Ann Jenkins killed | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
It happened at Sterry Road in Gowerton, after he gave her a lift. | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
Jenkins had been on trial for murder but changed her plea, which | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
The Children's Commissioner for Wales has begun an investigation | :03:33. | :03:45. | |
into how Pembrokeshire Council dealt with the case of a youth worker - | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
Mik Smith stayed in his job for seven years after an inquiry | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
into allegations he had behaved inappropriately towards children. | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
The council leader today apologised for failures and said he | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
We have looked at it, we have recognised failings and I have | :03:58. | :04:12. | |
expressed regret about those feelings. But in terms of the | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
lessons learned, I think that the proof and the evidence that those | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
lessons have been learnt has already been received, in terms of an | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
excellent Estyn outcome in which we have been removed from special | :04:26. | :04:26. | |
measures. The widow of a man who died | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
in an accident at the Airbus plant in Flintshire | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
says the company's ?200,000 fine for breaching health and safety | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
laws isn't sufficient punishment. Donald Williams, was crushed | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
by tractor machinery which he It only took a moment for Sheila | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
Williams' life to change forever. 62-year-old Donald Williams was | :04:39. | :04:49. | |
coming to the end of a shift He decided to check an attachment at | :04:50. | :05:02. | |
the back of a tractor used to clear ice from the runway. | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
He stood at the rear and asked a colleague to start the ignition. | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
The fertiliser spreader lifted and crushed Mr Williams | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
His widow believes that health and safety failures need to have | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
All our lives are valuable and should be seen so by | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
Having experienced first-hand the system dealing with | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
my husband's case, I am not convinced the current punishment is | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
sufficient deterrent for companies and I don't feel the level | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
of fine imposed today amounts to much in exchange for a man's life. | :05:30. | :05:39. | |
Airbus admitted a failing, not giving training to those working | :05:40. | :05:41. | |
It now hires in vehicles maintained by third party contractors. | :05:42. | :05:52. | |
We accept the findings of the investigation and the shortcomings | :05:53. | :05:54. | |
Have cooperated with the subsequent health and safety investigation. | :05:55. | :06:04. | |
I want to provide assurance that the company takes the safety | :06:05. | :06:12. | |
Mrs Williams says the improvements the company has made are a positive | :06:13. | :06:32. | |
step that only the threat of harsher punishment will force companies to | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
offer greater protection to workers. The chair of the S4C authority says | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
that the broadcaster needs to do more to ensure viewers tune in to | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
the channel more often and for longer. The annual report shows the | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
number of viewers across the UK where is 20,000 lower than the | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
previous year but there was a rise of almost a million in the number | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
watching across the whole year. The Welsh aerospace industry will | :07:02. | :07:09. | |
share ?150 -- whenever and ?50 million of investment to develop | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
more environmentally friendly planes. Companies like Airbus are | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
set to benefit. Football - Swansea City striker | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
Michu has joined Napoli on a season's loan with | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
an option to buy him after that. The 28-year-old didn't travel to | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
America for Swansea's pre-season Manager Garry Monk had hoped | :07:23. | :07:24. | |

earlier, Rhys Enoch, is feeling confident that he can begin the day | :07:45. | :07:52. | |
well tomorrow. He finished one over. I don't know what my expectations | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
were that I wanted to play well. I am pretty happy with how I | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
performed. One over is not bad by any means. The temperatures reached | :08:02. | :08:14. | |
26.1 Celsius in Usk and tonight we have thunderstorms to deal with. The | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
Met office has issued a yellow warning for the showers. They are | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
making their way up from the south, heavy and sundry at times. The | :08:24. | :08:27. | |

the one tonight. First thing tomorrow, a few showers in the North | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
which will clear and we can look forward to a largely fine day. The | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
showers continue their journey towards Northern Ireland and | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
Scotland. A warm and sticky day in south-east England, highs of 32 | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
Celsius. Another lovely afternoon in Wales, the odd isolated shower but | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
feeling warm and highs of 28 Celsius why the time we get to tomorrow. | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
Tomorrow night is quiet at first and overnight we will start to see | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
thundery showers gathering from the south-east. A warm and sticky night | :09:21. | :09:23. | |

downpours. Some disruption possible as we go into Saturday. Not | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
surprisingly, early warning for those showers. Hail and thunder to | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
come on Saturday. Sunday is the better day. | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
