Good evening. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
Welsh Labour could separate from the rest of the UK party | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
if Jeremy Corbyn remains leader, according to a former | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
Welsh Government minister. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
Leighton Andrews said the current Labour leadership election was "very | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
serious" for the party. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
But Corbyn supporters have told BBC Wales that party membership is high, | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
and say talk of splits is unhelpful. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
Here's our political correspondent, Arwyn Jones. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:41 | |
Wales has been at the heart of the Labour Party | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
throughout its history. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
The party's first leader Keir Hardie represented Merthyr | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
and during the '70s and '80s, three leaders in a row represented | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
Welsh constituencies - James Callaghan, Michael Foot | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
and Neil Kinnock. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
But as the current crisis facing the party continues, | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
this former Welsh Government minister says if Jeremy Corbyn | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
remains as leader, the party in Wales could go its own way. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:10 | |
I certainly think it would be an autonomous Welsh Labour Party, | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
but it could be a separate Welsh Labour Party and at this point | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
I wouldn't rule anything out. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
I think this leadership election is potentially the last | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
opportunity for British Labour. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
Mr Andrews knows about the challenge facing Labour - he lost his seat | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
in May's election and says Jeremy Corbyn, even though he barely | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
appeared here during the campaign, was a vote loser in that election. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
He supports Owen Smith for leader, but this former leader | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
of the party in Wales thinks, whatever happens next, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
Labour will find it difficult to remain as a UK-wide party. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:48 | |
Certainly, a split would be sad and will be difficult, | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
because it is more difficult to put things back together again | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
when they have been broken than it is to try to maintain | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
a unity of purpose. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:03 | |
There is a long summer ahead for the two rivals as they try | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
to win votes from the hundreds of thousands of party members | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
to become leader, but after the result is declared in September, | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
it's not certain if UK Labour will still include Wales. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:16 | |
Ukip Wales leader Nathan Gill says he will not stand | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
down from his MEP role, claiming those making the call | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
are doing it out of "malice." | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
Mr Gill, who is also now an Assembly Member, has been told | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
to stop "double jobbing" by Ukip's German Steve Crowther. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
But Mr Gill says he can do the both jobs and doesn't | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
take home two salaries. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:40 | |
A North Wales coach company are helping French police | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
with their inquiries after one of their buses crashed | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
in Eastern France. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:46 | |
13 teenagers from Cheltenham were injured - two seriously - | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
after the coach from Express Motors in Penygroes overturned | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
into a ditch yesterday. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
The drivers are being interviewed by police. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:57 | |
Hundreds of people have gathered to celebrate the anniversary | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
of an historic bridge, which has played an important part | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
in linking communities in Wales and England for 200 years. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
The Grade One listed Chepstow Bridge is the longest iron bridge | 0:03:06 | 0:03:11 | |
of its age to survive, as Carys Notley reports. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
Connecting two nations for two centuries, spanning 34 metres | 0:03:13 | 0:03:20 | |
across the River Wye, Chepstow Bridge, a five-arch iron | 0:03:20 | 0:03:25 | |
structure built and designed by engineer John Rastrick in 1816. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
Today, to mark the milestone, a procession, uniting | 0:03:29 | 0:03:33 | |
how it was first opened two centuries ago. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
Chepstow Bridge is 200 years old today! | 0:03:35 | 0:03:44 | |
And it's stood the test of time - now grade one listed, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
it's the oldest standing bridge of its kind. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:51 | |
It's the largest iron arch Road Bridge remaining for the first | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
50 years of iron in bridges and so it is incredibly important | 0:03:54 | 0:03:59 | |
to the world and we have a river that is really strange - | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
it flows four times in different directions every day | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
because of such high tides. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:12 | |
For residents, it has been both practical and provided some | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
particular memories. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:15 | |
One day I was coming to the English side and the river | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
and it was just red with tomatoes. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
A lorry full of tomatoes had gone completely over the top. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:25 | |
Until the second bridge opened in the it played a vital | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
role in uniting Wales with the west Country. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
The hope is it will continue to bring English and Welsh | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
communities together for another 200 years. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:38 | |
Welsh cyclists Geraint Thomas and Luke Rowe helped Sky teammate | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
Chris Froome to victory in this year's Tour de France. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:44 | |
Thomas and Froome will ride again together for Team | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
GB in the Olympics. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:47 | |
A quick look at the weather now. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
Rain in the east will die away during the evening, leaving a dry | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
night with some clear periods. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:53 | |
Tomorrow, there will be some sunshine, but also showers, | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
possibly heavy at times in the afternoon. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:57 | |
Highs of 19 Celsius. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:58 | |
