:01:34. > :01:38.The boys, aged 14 and 15, got into difficulty
:01:39. > :01:42.in the water at Barmouth beach early yesterday afternoon.
:01:43. > :01:44.That sparked a major search operation, involving
:01:45. > :01:48.a rescue helicopter, five coastguard teams
:01:49. > :01:52.Our reporter, Matthew Murray, has been following events
:01:53. > :02:03.in Barmouth all day and has the very latest for us now.
:02:04. > :02:10.The search has got under this evening in the past half an hour and
:02:11. > :02:17.I have been told by the coastguard it will not involve boats. It will
:02:18. > :02:26.be a search of the beach by foot and also on four by four vehicles. The
:02:27. > :02:31.searches for the first -- the two teenage boys who went missing nearly
:02:32. > :02:35.30 hours ago. Barmouth beach in August in the sunshine is usually
:02:36. > :02:39.packed. There were only a half -- a handful of people in the water today
:02:40. > :02:43.after two teenage boys went missing in the sea yesterday. They were part
:02:44. > :02:49.of a large group of several hundreds from the Somali community in
:02:50. > :02:58.learning here on it day trip. But he planned a fun day was short lived.
:02:59. > :03:04.We tried to look around to find them. We searched the toilets and
:03:05. > :03:11.searched everywhere to try and find them. It is windy here today but the
:03:12. > :03:14.winds yesterday were stronger. The two teenage boys were in the water
:03:15. > :03:20.just by here. One person did see one teenager going to the water and he
:03:21. > :03:23.did try to rescue him but there was little he could do to help. In
:03:24. > :03:29.Barmouth today there was shock and concern. They have not been in the
:03:30. > :03:42.water today. It is a concern when kids go in the water. It is quite
:03:43. > :03:45.scary. It is quite upsetting. Meanwhile further down the coast in
:03:46. > :03:49.Ceredigion search has been taking place for a man missing after being
:03:50. > :03:58.washed off a beach yesterday. He fell into the sea after being cut
:03:59. > :04:03.off by high tides. With the summer holidays well under way this is the
:04:04. > :04:10.busiest time for rescue crews. The RNLI in Barmouth has described this
:04:11. > :04:14.as a major operation. It was quite choppy yesterday and the wind rose
:04:15. > :04:17.steadily during the day. When the boys first went missing it was
:04:18. > :04:21.borderline but then it got quite rough. How difficult has it been the
:04:22. > :04:27.Eucharist in the power boats are very capable, the big boat in
:04:28. > :04:34.particular can handle that without any problem. After being stopped all
:04:35. > :04:41.day, now with the right tidal conditions the search has resumed.
:04:42. > :04:50.The boys have just been named locally by the Yemeni community.
:04:51. > :04:58.Today there has been a real says -- sense of sadness in Barmouth. A lot
:04:59. > :05:01.of people here have been scared to let their children into the water
:05:02. > :05:05.today because while they have been sunny spells it has also been quite
:05:06. > :05:09.windy and that has made for choppy conditions in the sea. That can
:05:10. > :05:16.sometimes look appealing to children with the large waves but the parents
:05:17. > :05:19.I have been speaking to today have been stopping their children from
:05:20. > :05:24.going into the water since his teenage boys have been missing.
:05:25. > :05:27.A little bit of Welsh sporting history was made last night,
:05:28. > :05:30.as Jazz Carlin became the first Welsh woman to win an Olympic
:05:31. > :05:32.medal in the pool for more than eighty years.
:05:33. > :05:35.The 25-year-old picked up a silver in the 400 metres.
:05:36. > :05:37.Our reporter, Rhodri Llewellyn, is in Rio for us and Rhodri it's

:07:20. > :07:24.For everybody who has woken up and watched my swim, thank you.
:07:25. > :07:27.It's the culmination of years of work.
:07:28. > :07:30.A world away from the sunshine of Rio and Olympic glory,

:11:15. > :11:24.As political battlefields go Caerphilly has been one of Ukip's
:11:25. > :11:27.more successful areas. Here as in many of the areas in Wales the party
:11:28. > :11:32.has been fortifying its support which reached new heights in May as
:11:33. > :11:35.it stormed to the Welsh assembly. But despite recent victories
:11:36. > :11:42.including campaigning successfully for the UK to leave the EU Ukip has
:11:43. > :11:45.turned its weapons on itself and one of the most bloody battles in the
:11:46. > :11:51.party 's civil war is taking place here in Wales. It is a battle over
:11:52. > :11:56.this man's feature. Ukip Ozma gruelling committee is tonight
:11:57. > :11:59.siding whether to take Ukip's leader in Wales out of the party after he
:12:00. > :12:05.ignored the ultimatum for him to stand down from one of his two
:12:06. > :12:12.elected roles. Nathan Gill sits in both the assembly and the European
:12:13. > :12:15.Parliament. It is despicable they should hang that over a man who has
:12:16. > :12:21.led a successful Brexit campaign in Wales. He has done more debates than
:12:22. > :12:26.any other Ukip a semi-member. He has worked so hard for the party but
:12:27. > :12:33.also for the people of Wales and he will continue to do so. In the three
:12:34. > :12:38.weeks before we broke the recess he was there for half a day. We are
:12:39. > :12:44.having to do his work for him. His empty chair is a constant
:12:45. > :12:50.embarrassment. But what do the people of Caerphilly make of it? You
:12:51. > :12:56.need a sense of unity to succeed in politics. He wants to do two jobs
:12:57. > :13:01.and they won't let him. If they can handle two jobs why not? I don't
:13:02. > :13:09.think any party seems United right now. This aims to be confrontation
:13:10. > :13:13.in Ukip, the Tories and Labour. It is just the country in general right
:13:14. > :13:18.now doesn't know which direction it was to go in. Having won its first
:13:19. > :13:24.seats in May something the episode could split the Ukip group in the
:13:25. > :13:27.assembly. These should be they housing days. They had fantastic
:13:28. > :13:32.election results and they got the result they wanted in the EU
:13:33. > :13:39.referendum. But they are not enjoying their success. The party
:13:40. > :13:43.will go back into the assembly in September and it's difficult to see
:13:44. > :13:45.them within together. It is too early to tell whether such
:13:46. > :13:52.infighting were hard -- hamper party. Ukip has shown that it
:13:53. > :13:55.doesn't play by normal political rules.
:13:56. > :14:00.Any news from that marathon UKIP meeting yet?
:14:01. > :14:08.No. As it stands the party's National executive committee is
:14:09. > :14:11.still meeting in London and of course that issue of expelling
:14:12. > :14:14.Nathan Gill from the party is very much under discussion. But I am told
:14:15. > :14:21.that there are members of that committee who are minded to put that
:14:22. > :14:26.issue to a vote of the membership in Wales and ask them whether he should
:14:27. > :14:29.be expelled from the party. If they decide tonight to kick him out of
:14:30. > :14:34.the party I'm told Nathan Gill is vertically willing to remain as an
:14:35. > :14:39.independent here in Cardiff Bay as in the European Parliament in
:14:40. > :14:45.Brussels and Strasbourg. Here is willing to play the long game in
:14:46. > :14:47.that situation, hoping one of his allies winds and can bring him back
:14:48. > :14:50.into the fold. Nobody wants to see our politicians
:14:51. > :14:55.resorting to a punch up but one new AM wants a little more
:14:56. > :14:57.excitement and spark And the weather's
:14:58. > :15:02.never boring in Wales. We can have all four seasons
:15:03. > :15:04.in one day. But what's in store
:15:05. > :15:06.for the rest of this week? A quarry pool in Cilcain near Mold
:15:07. > :15:17.has been dyed black with food colouring to try to deter people
:15:18. > :15:20.from swimming in it. It's part of a campaign
:15:21. > :15:22.by North Wales Police and the quarrying firm Hanson
:15:23. > :15:24.to highlight the dangers It follows a number of incidents
:15:25. > :15:30.where young people have drowned Known as the blue lagoon,
:15:31. > :15:38.this pool at a Carmarthenshire quarry lured a 14-year-old boy
:15:39. > :15:41.to his death four years ago. Luke Somerfield from Llandeilo had
:15:42. > :15:45.been swimming with friends when he got into difficulties
:15:46. > :15:49.in the deep water. His parents have set up a memorial
:15:50. > :15:52.trust in his name partly to educate other young people
:15:53. > :16:05.about the dangers of quarries. He was very safety conscious about
:16:06. > :16:10.water. We had a boat and we used to go out on the boat and we took care
:16:11. > :16:14.on the water. I would like to think Hadi had this training he would not
:16:15. > :16:17.have gone in in the first place. The gates, razor wire and signs
:16:18. > :16:20.at this Flintshire quarry are still not enough to keep
:16:21. > :16:22.some people out. So Hanson the owners have dyed
:16:23. > :16:34.the water from a previously This quarry pool is 40 metres deep
:16:35. > :16:37.in places and has temperatures of less than 10 degrees. Although it
:16:38. > :16:41.might look inviting to some those temperatures are cold enough to
:16:42. > :16:48.kill. If muscles don't work as well as they should do very quickly you
:16:49. > :16:52.can have none -- numb fingers and it's difficult to climb out. You can
:16:53. > :17:02.get cramp. Very quickly people get into trouble. There is no bottom to
:17:03. > :17:06.touch because it's deep. At least one person a year accidentally
:17:07. > :17:09.drowns in quarry pulls in Wales. Earlier campaigns have demonstrated
:17:10. > :17:11.the dangers of quarry pools and North Wales Police have
:17:12. > :17:13.begun their own appeal, urging people to listen
:17:14. > :17:22.to those who've had to deal Talking to the gentleman I met when
:17:23. > :17:26.I came to the site he has to live with it every single day and he says
:17:27. > :17:32.it's very traumatic. They do everything they can and people still
:17:33. > :17:35.ignore the facts. It is dangerous and it is cordoned off for a reason.
:17:36. > :17:37.Whether it's freezing temperatures, submerged machinery or plants,
:17:38. > :17:39.it's what you can't see which can prove fatal.
:17:40. > :17:42.The black water of Cilcain quarry is meant to open people's
:17:43. > :17:46.Whilst some parliaments around the world are famed
:17:47. > :17:48.for their punch ups, politics in Cardiff Bay tends to be
:17:49. > :17:51.rather more sedate or boring even, according to one new Assembly
:17:52. > :17:54.Plaid Cymru's Steffan Lewis says people find the debates
:17:55. > :17:57.in the Senedd too dull and the chamber looks more
:17:58. > :17:59.like an open-plan office, than the seat of Wales' democracy.
:18:00. > :18:08.Here's our political reporter, Carl Roberts.
:18:09. > :18:15.Who says politics is boring? Parliamentary punching in the
:18:16. > :18:19.Ukraine and Georgia. But it's not like this everywhere. Here in
:18:20. > :18:22.Cardiff Bay on recently elected politician says some of the debates
:18:23. > :18:29.are dealt and that people are telling him that the semi-politics
:18:30. > :18:34.is boring. I think we need to add something. I am not suggesting Elin
:18:35. > :18:39.Jones should wear a caper anything like that but if we had a greater
:18:40. > :18:43.sense of occasion and the assembly and less predictability in some of
:18:44. > :18:49.the questions, that might create a bit more interest. The highlights of
:18:50. > :18:52.the political week is First Minister's Questions. Carwyn Jones
:18:53. > :18:55.takes questions from the floor. It is packed in here for that session
:18:56. > :18:59.but for many debates there are lot of indie seats and Steffan Lewis
:19:00. > :19:06.says it has the feel of an office. They does not did -- need to be in
:19:07. > :19:09.fighting all the time. It turns people off politics quite often.
:19:10. > :19:15.What politicians and journalists need to do is communicate how
:19:16. > :19:19.politics affects people's day-to-day lives and introduce solutions and
:19:20. > :19:27.policies that will make a difference to people's lives. There was
:19:28. > :19:34.sympathy for his view today. Bell, that is being kind. Boring and dull.
:19:35. > :19:39.Do you think it's the fault of the assembly all most politics? Most
:19:40. > :19:46.politics to most people and fortunately. Some of the debates can
:19:47. > :19:54.be a bit dull. I am not going to lie. They are sometimes. My Nan
:19:55. > :19:59.watches it. They could do with a bit of spicing up. Would you like it
:20:00. > :20:04.more like Westminster? Is that any better. When the assembler was
:20:05. > :20:10.established politicians said it would mark the beginning of
:20:11. > :20:11.consensus politics in Wales. 17 years on the consensus seems to be
:20:12. > :20:15.that that kind of politics is Dell. The Welsh Government has repeated
:20:16. > :20:18.its opposition to fracking today, following reports the UK Government
:20:19. > :20:20.is planning to offer money to people living near proposed
:20:21. > :20:22.drilling sites in England. The controversial method
:20:23. > :20:24.of extracting gas from deep underground has split
:20:25. > :20:26.opinion for years. Here to explain all is our
:20:27. > :20:39.environment correspondent, This plan by the Prime Minister
:20:40. > :20:45.Theresa May emerged over the weekend. The idea is that in those
:20:46. > :20:49.areas where the drilling is going ahead a portion of the taxes is
:20:50. > :20:53.handed directly to households living nearby. The UK Government is keen
:20:54. > :20:59.for fracking to take off in the UK. They see it as an important part of
:21:00. > :21:02.our energy mix in the future. It's different in Wales. The Welsh
:21:03. > :21:05.Government wants to see fracking stopped completely because it was
:21:06. > :21:09.more evidence about its impact on the environment. You can envisage a
:21:10. > :21:14.situation the future where people in Wales look to communities in England
:21:15. > :21:23.having these hand-outs for allowing fracking to go ahead and asking why
:21:24. > :21:28.aren't they having that opportunity. Some Labour MPs today accused the UK
:21:29. > :21:34.Government of bribery today. Glyn Davies a conservative MP says it
:21:35. > :21:35.will make people look at the evidence for themselves and consider
:21:36. > :21:39.it more carefully. So after Jazz Carlin's silver,
:21:40. > :21:41.where might Wales' next With news on that and the rest
:21:42. > :21:47.of today's sport, here's Tomos. Give the Welsh Premier
:21:48. > :21:52.League a chance. That's message from those running
:21:53. > :21:54.the game here just days before Following the national side's
:21:55. > :21:59.success at the European Championships, organisers
:22:00. > :22:15.of the Welsh Premiership are hoping It was an unforgettable summer when
:22:16. > :22:23.Wales exceeded all expectations at Euro 2016. They made headlines
:22:24. > :22:26.around the world. A month after Chris Coleman and his team were
