:01:25. > :01:28.Sentencing him to four and a half years, the judge said Brekke

:02:00. > :02:02.A lot of people think it is just to put this flag
:02:03. > :02:06.Nasser Muthana, Aseel's older brother, was one of two infamous
:02:07. > :02:10.recruits to so-called IS who appeared in a propaganda

:02:24. > :02:26.Brekke first met Aseel while they were working at this cafe

:02:30. > :02:32.The Old Bailey heard Brekke helped him get and store

:03:18. > :03:21.I feel proud of being Welsh because I like the Red Dragon
:03:22. > :03:24.and when I sing the anthem, it makes me very proud
:03:25. > :03:30.But in less than a decade, that young boy would be in the dock
:03:31. > :03:34.at the Old Bailey alongside two others on terror charges.
:03:35. > :03:37.Brekke told the Old Bailey jury that within a couple of years of starting
:03:38. > :03:40.secondary school, he decided to convert to Islam.
:03:41. > :03:44.He said most of his friends were Muslim and he wanted to fit in.
:03:45. > :03:48.He took his declaration of faith at this small mosque just a few

:03:51. > :03:56.We taught him so we knew him for quite a while.
:03:57. > :04:03.I think since the age of 15 and now he is at the age of 19.
:04:04. > :04:07.So we have not seen any extremism in him.

:04:12. > :04:14.after his conversion at this mosque that that name
:04:15. > :04:18.He changed it to Kaleem, the Arabic meaning -

:04:23. > :04:25.conflicting viewpoints to create harmony.
:04:26. > :04:29.But his life has been far from harmonious since.
:04:30. > :04:34.Then come join us at Cardiff hill - AKA Asda hill.
:04:35. > :04:41.Part of the case against him was this video shot on a mobile

:05:13. > :05:15.If you are watching this, I am probably dead.
:05:16. > :05:18.I am probably like a legend or something.
:05:19. > :05:21.Brekke's co-accused, Forhad Rahman and Adeel Ulhaq,
:05:22. > :05:24.did not know Aseel Muthana or Brekke personally.
:05:25. > :05:30.Experts say such radicalisation on the net is impossible to police.
:05:31. > :05:34.I noticed one of the videos on this case, one of the guys on the video

:05:39. > :05:43.They're pulling on these factors, you may not feel involved
:05:44. > :05:47.in your community, you may feel a sense of disconnection,

:06:10. > :06:11.I don't think that trust has always been there.
:06:12. > :06:15.I am not sure if in this case this was the particular reason.
:06:16. > :06:18.Certainly, a stronger degree of trust and communication
:06:19. > :06:21.across-the-board would mean there are less likely to be
:06:22. > :06:28.instances where things fall through gaps in the net.

:06:51. > :06:54.there is one event that is negative or terror related, I could tell
:06:55. > :06:57.you five or ten events that are in the community where Muslims
:06:58. > :07:01.are making a positive impact and affecting the local community.
:07:02. > :07:06.21,000 Muslims live in Cardiff, the vast majority law-abiding,
:07:07. > :07:09.but tonight, with another from their community behind bars,
:07:10. > :07:12.they are searching for answers about how to tackle those
:07:13. > :07:23.Nick, what's been the reaction to today's verdict?
:07:24. > :07:31.The police are busy very pleased with the outcome. This has been a
:07:32. > :07:34.joint investigation between two English counterterrorism units and
:07:35. > :07:39.the Wales counterterrorism unit. They describe it as a conquest MS
:07:40. > :07:43.the nation. The Assistant Chief Constable Rob Price out Wales police
:07:44. > :07:48.has released a statement saying the sentences shown to those who support
:07:49. > :07:52.a terrorist organisation will be brought to justice. There is no
:07:53. > :07:57.place for those terrorists in Britain. He added that everybody has
:07:58. > :08:00.a responsibility for spotting the early signs of radicalisation and
:08:01. > :08:05.said the police want to work with the community in partnership to
:08:06. > :08:09.protect those who are potentially vulnerable or showing signs of
:08:10. > :08:14.violent extremism and stop them going to Syria.
:08:15. > :08:17.There are serious questions tonight over the future
:08:18. > :08:21.The UK Government has announced an independent review
:08:22. > :08:23.of Tidal Lagoon Energy, saying more work needs to be done
:08:24. > :08:25.to determine whether it presents value for money.
:08:26. > :08:28.The company behind the project says it welcomes the opportunity
:08:29. > :08:30.to put its case forward but it's concerned about the
:08:31. > :08:44.It can be a long walk to the sea when the tide goes out in Swansea
:08:45. > :08:49.Bay but maybe not as long as the possible wait for a decision on
:08:50. > :08:52.tidal lagoon energy year. As the UK Government announced an independent
:08:53. > :08:56.review of the feasibility and practicality of this kind of energy,
:08:57. > :09:02.others see the news as a delaying tactic over a final decision. I am
:09:03. > :09:05.disappointed for the people of Swansea East because they are
:09:06. > :09:10.desperate for this. I am disappointed for the people of Wales
:09:11. > :09:12.because this was our opportunity. And I am disappointed they play
:09:13. > :09:18.these games with something so important. The chief executive of
:09:19. > :09:21.tidal lagoon energy has warned the UK Government it must decide in the
:09:22. > :09:25.next few weeks whether or not it is going to invest in this billion
:09:26. > :09:28.pound project. Building work has been delayed because every time they
:09:29. > :09:33.come to discuss how much public money will be put forward,
:09:34. > :09:36.negotiations have stalled. Responding to the forthcoming
:09:37. > :09:40.review, the Chief Executive of tidal lagoon energy said in a statement,
:09:41. > :09:45.we welcome the opportunity to put the case for a major programme of
:09:46. > :09:49.cost-effective power. This is a home-grown source of power, the
:09:50. > :09:52.natural way to power our nation. He said the review should not impact
:09:53. > :09:57.the finalisation of our commercial discussions. The Department for
:09:58. > :10:00.Energy and Climate Change says the developers will take part in the
:10:01. > :10:07.review while discussions continue. While that might be the case,
:10:08. > :10:09.businesses in the local area are now concerned about the time and money
:10:10. > :10:17.they have already invested in this project. The delay now places great
:10:18. > :10:21.uncertainty and there are not many new opportunities in Port Talbot,
:10:22. > :10:28.Swansea Bay of the type that can employ people to the extent that the
:10:29. > :10:31.tidal lagoon can. From that point of view, a great disappointment. We
:10:32. > :10:38.have been working very hard for over two years. And as an industry group,
:10:39. > :10:42.supporting tidal lagoon, our expenditure has run into hundreds of
:10:43. > :10:47.thousands of pounds. While the debate over tidal lagoon energy
:10:48. > :10:48.continues to ebb and flow, it is hoped this delay does not signal the
:10:49. > :10:52.end for the Swansea Bay project. Let's have a word with our business
:10:53. > :10:54.correspondent Brian Meechan. A warning tonight that if the tidal
:10:55. > :11:07.lagoon doesn't happen in Swansea, That is the concern of some people
:11:08. > :11:15.including some supporters and investors. I have spoken to the boss
:11:16. > :11:19.of Liberty Steel, one of the investors. Tidal lagoon said it
:11:20. > :11:24.needed a decision within weeks and there was an expectation around that
:11:25. > :11:28.coming up to the budget next month, that decision either way would be
:11:29. > :11:32.made. We now know it is going to be months before that decision is made
:11:33. > :11:37.and that could delay the project for years. The UK Government is looking
:11:38. > :11:40.to see whether it is value for money because it is an expensive project.
:11:41. > :11:44.We are going to talk about the steel industry later in the programme but
:11:45. > :11:50.just a thought on this project's place in the wider industry in south
:11:51. > :11:53.Wales. If you look at some of the arguments being made, we know that
:11:54. > :11:57.cheaper energy is incredibly important to the future of the steel
:11:58. > :12:03.industry. That is why the boss of Liberty Steel says they have
:12:04. > :12:06.invested in this. But there is also a wider impact.
:12:07. > :12:08.The lagoons generate over 70,000 jobs during construction,
:12:09. > :12:09.over 35,000 sustainable for 120 years -
:12:10. > :12:14.It creates an industry. It creates an entire industry.
:12:15. > :12:17.We are looking at several investments on the back of that.
:12:18. > :12:26.We want to do several things, whether it is in steel or concrete.
:12:27. > :12:33.Lord Nick Bourne, who is in charge of this review, is also a member of
:12:34. > :12:37.the Welsh government steel task force so he is aware of how all of
:12:38. > :12:40.this fits together but we are going on beyond the Assembly election.
:12:41. > :12:44.The Public Services Minister says people need to "grow up"
:12:45. > :12:46.in their opposition to cutting the number of councils in Wales.
:12:47. > :12:48.Leighton Andrews has told the Assembly's Local Government
:12:49. > :12:50.Committee that councils have been given "every opportunity" to agree
:12:51. > :12:55.on a new map of local authorities but have failed to do so.
:12:56. > :12:57.But the chief executive of the Welsh Local Government Association,
:12:58. > :13:00.Steve Thomas, said it took longer to change councils across Wales
:13:01. > :13:08.The reality is, everybody can agree on local government reorganisation
:13:09. > :13:12.but nobody is prepared to agree on what it should look like.
:13:13. > :13:18.People need to grow up, bluntly, and we need to get agreement on this
:13:19. > :13:21.as soon as we can after the May elections because, as the trade
:13:22. > :13:26.unions have said, this is leading to some demoralisation among staff
:13:27. > :13:30.in local government who want to know what the way forward is.
:13:31. > :13:35.Work has been continuing to restore drinking water to around 1,700

:14:42. > :14:56.What was life like at deep cut barracks in Surrey more than 20
:14:57. > :15:01.years ago? And could it have contributed to the death of this
:15:02. > :15:07.teenage soldier from Angolan? Alison Foster QC is representing her family
:15:08. > :15:11.at the new inquest into her death. She asked the man in charge of
:15:12. > :15:15.welfare in the Army now about the barracks in 1995. There's the army
:15:16. > :15:22.accept that some officers saw recruits as a sexual challenge? He
:15:23. > :15:24.said, yes, we do. Sadly not everybody subscribed to the set of
:15:25. > :15:59.values that one would wish. This woman was a close friend of
:16:00. > :16:05.hers at the barracks and she told the inquest the cab at the time was
:16:06. > :16:09.pretty diabolical. Life was not much of an existence. Another friend told
:16:10. > :16:14.the coroner that a Sergeant at the base has taken a liking to her but
:16:15. > :16:18.the feeling was not mutual. She said she never heard of the Sergeant Mick
:16:19. > :16:22.Brennan approaches towards her but she knew she did not like him. She
:16:23. > :16:28.was later ordered to carry out tasks such as picking up litter in the

:16:34. > :16:38.about life at the barracks while his daughter was there. Tonight, they
:16:39. > :16:42.said, for the first time in 20 years, they feel they have received
