Welcome to Wales Today, our top stories:

:00:00.:00:00.

All smiles once in Plaid Cymru but they're not smiling now.

:00:07.:00:09.

Tonight, party leader Leanne Wood on Dafydd Elis-Thomas quitting.

:00:10.:00:14.

He has been a semidetached member of the group,

:00:15.:00:16.

so in practical terms, it is not going to make

:00:17.:00:19.

that much difference, but it is sad that given he has put

:00:20.:00:21.

so much into politics over so many years,

:00:22.:00:23.

This is Esther Hoad growing up in Carmarthenshire in the 1970s.

:00:24.:00:32.

Today the taxi driver who drove her to school

:00:33.:00:34.

and abused her is finally sent to prison.

:00:35.:00:41.

MPs hear claims that the Cardiff City manager - Neil Warnock -

:00:42.:00:44.

asked players to pay him to get picked at a previous club.

:00:45.:00:50.

The Welsh Police force are encouraging drivers to send

:00:51.:00:53.

And in the week marking 50 years since Aberfan, the

:00:54.:01:00.

Well, I can see the tables and chairs with the children sitting

:01:01.:01:10.

in them and they were such a happy group of children,

:01:11.:01:12.

It's the political divorce that has rocked Plaid Cymru but tonight

:01:13.:01:35.

the party's leader has hit back at her former colleague

:01:36.:01:38.

Lord Dafydd Elis-Thomas after he dramatically quit over

:01:39.:01:41.

Leanne Wood has told BBC Wales that a deal struck

:01:42.:01:45.

with the Welsh Government over its forthcoming budget shows

:01:46.:01:47.

just how co-operative Plaid can be in opposition.

:01:48.:01:52.

Lord Elis-Thomas - for decades one of the most

:01:53.:01:55.

recognisable figures in Welsh politics - is now sitting

:01:56.:01:57.

Here's our political editor, Nick Servini.

:01:58.:02:07.

Dafydd Elis-Thomas, a former leader of Plaid Cymru with vast experience

:02:08.:02:14.

within the party has never embraced the views of the current leader,

:02:15.:02:18.

Leanne Wood. It was all smiles back in the month of May as Plaid Cymru,

:02:19.:02:22.

fresh from the assembly election, became the second biggest party, but

:02:23.:02:26.

Dafydd Elis-Thomas became increasingly frustrated with Plaid

:02:27.:02:29.

Cymru's robust stance against Labour. He believes it should be

:02:30.:02:33.

more focused upon building another coalition, like the two parties

:02:34.:02:37.

formed nearly a decade ago. Today Leanne Wood hit back at the

:02:38.:02:43.

accusations levelled against her leadership. We have sought to be

:02:44.:02:47.

constructive in our opposition, we have work to try and get our

:02:48.:02:51.

manifesto priorities in. We have tried to influence the Welsh

:02:52.:02:54.

Government's responds to Brexit and we will continue to do that. But he

:02:55.:02:59.

has been nothing but trouble for you, you must be glad to see the

:03:00.:03:02.

back of him. The resin element of relief that I do not have to deal

:03:03.:03:10.

with him now, but there is an element of disappointment and

:03:11.:03:14.

sadness that it has had to come to this. Dafydd Elis-Thomas has become

:03:15.:03:20.

one of the most recognisable faces in Welsh politics. Here, rubbing

:03:21.:03:25.

shoulders with Anthony Hopkins. He has rejected claims he led his

:03:26.:03:30.

constituents byes-mac let his constituents down having left the

:03:31.:03:33.

party so soon after fighting the election for Plaid Cymru. I do not

:03:34.:03:38.

understand what morality has to do with holding a by-election. The

:03:39.:03:41.

constitutional argument, I have never seen one and I haven't seen

:03:42.:03:48.

one in the last few hours. But the implications of this followed a far

:03:49.:03:52.

greater than the internal relations of Plaid Cymru, it means that

:03:53.:03:56.

pressured votes at the Senate are up for grabs. Following the assembly

:03:57.:03:59.

election in the month of May, Labour were the biggest party with 29

:04:00.:04:05.

seats, they have since brought some Lib Dem Kirsty Williams into the

:04:06.:04:09.

cabinet. But a passport and was expected to be made to negotiate

:04:10.:04:13.

with Plaid Cymru, who had 12. The Conservatives have a live-in and

:04:14.:04:18.

Ukip at seven, but Dafydd Elis-Thomas and Ukip's Megan Gale

:04:19.:04:23.

have become independents now. If the Labour Party can get in their

:04:24.:04:27.

support, it effectively gives them a working majority. This decision

:04:28.:04:32.

reduces the ability of Plaid Cymru to play hardball. They will not be

:04:33.:04:35.

able to hold the governance to ransom because they have other

:04:36.:04:39.

choices that they can now pursue. That said, Plaid Cymru have formal

:04:40.:04:44.

mechanisms feeding into government decision-making, liaison committees,

:04:45.:04:47.

and could become a more important channel for influencing government

:04:48.:04:51.

policy. All this talk of stiff opposition comes on the eve of one

:04:52.:04:55.

of the big days of the year, budget day. Ironically, we learn tonight

:04:56.:04:59.

that both the Labour Party and Plaid Cymru have agreed on a deal to get

:05:00.:05:04.

the budget through. The first big test of the relationship, it has

:05:05.:05:06.

been passed. What is the long-term impact of what

:05:07.:05:10.

will happen? I think much depends upon the

:05:11.:05:14.

relationship between New Labour Party and Plaid Cymru. That be the

:05:15.:05:19.

defining relationship in this assembly term. Remember, they are

:05:20.:05:23.

not in coalition but they have set up committees to work together and

:05:24.:05:26.

it would appear it is going well the moment. So we know that they have

:05:27.:05:31.

agreed a budget and they will go through the details on that

:05:32.:05:35.

tomorrow. I suppose the real impact could be when that relationship gets

:05:36.:05:40.

sticky, because it does mean potentially that the Labour Welsh

:05:41.:05:44.

Government have an option to strike a deal with Dafydd Elis-Thomas, the

:05:45.:05:47.

question then is, if it becomes a regular occurrence, what do they do?

:05:48.:05:51.

Try to lock him in and bring him into the government? That could be

:05:52.:05:55.

difficult, they have already brought one Lib Dem in any form of Kirsty

:05:56.:05:59.

Williams. But there are other ways that you could potentially get his

:06:00.:06:08.

support, Rhodri Morgan, the former First Minister mischievously

:06:09.:06:10.

suggested that we could see one or two primary schools being built in

:06:11.:06:12.

his local constituency. Thank you for that, Nick.

:06:13.:06:19.

A committee of MPs has heard claims that the Cardiff City

:06:20.:06:22.

football manager - Neil Warnock - made players pay

:06:23.:06:24.

The allegations were brought up by Damian Collins MP

:06:25.:06:27.

during a parliamentary inquiry into corruption in the sport.

:06:28.:06:29.

But in the past hour we've had a statement from Neil Warnock,

:06:30.:06:32.

who says the allegations are utterly false.

:06:33.:06:34.

Tomos is at Cardiff City, what more can you tell us?

:06:35.:06:38.

These claims surfaced two years ago when Warnock

:06:39.:06:40.

Jason Puncheon - who played under Warnock at that club -

:06:41.:06:47.

took to Twitter and called Warnock crooked and said he gives players

:06:48.:06:50.

extra wages and appearance bonuses to make sure they pay him to get

:06:51.:06:53.

into the team or for a place on the bench.

:06:54.:07:01.

Puncheon, who has since deleted the tweets, was fined

:07:02.:07:04.

?15,000 by the FA and apologised for his comments.

:07:05.:07:07.

This came as part of the inquiry into the governance of football -

:07:08.:07:13.

MPs asked the FA why they had not contacted Puncheon to ask him why

:07:14.:07:17.

The FA said it could only act on "hard evidence", not on comments

:07:18.:07:24.

These are serious but unsubstantiated allegations

:07:25.:07:27.

about one of the game's most experienced managers -

:07:28.:07:29.

Warnock - who took charge of his first match here three days ago -

:07:30.:07:34.

didn't want to say anything today but it's understood

:07:35.:07:36.

he feels the matter was dealt with at the time.

:07:37.:07:38.

But with any last hour he has come out with a statement telling us that

:07:39.:07:43.

these allegations are completely false and said that the FA

:07:44.:07:46.

Commission considered all the evidence in detail in 2014 and found

:07:47.:07:50.

that the allegations which were published about him were unfounded.

:07:51.:07:54.

He also said that he is disappointed that these allegations have been

:07:55.:08:00.

repeated two years later. Please keep us posted, thank you.

:08:01.:08:06.

North Wales Police is appealing to drivers to submit

:08:07.:08:08.

dashboard camera footage which shows dangerous driving.

:08:09.:08:10.

Dash cameras are becoming a popular way of recording traffic incidents,

:08:11.:08:13.

The force has launched a webpage which makes it easier

:08:14.:08:16.

This dashcam footage taken from all over the UK highlights some

:08:17.:08:21.

From travelling the wrong way down a motorway,

:08:22.:08:26.

to dangerous overtaking manoeuvres, and the most extreme road rage

:08:27.:08:29.

from a dumper truck driver to this motorist who caused a crash

:08:30.:08:32.

which left two young girls paralysed.

:08:33.:08:36.

North Wales Police say this is a vital tool

:08:37.:08:38.

If people think twice, people do not want to take that risk just in case

:08:39.:08:52.

someone might get in touch with us. I do not want people on the road

:08:53.:08:56.

stating those risks, I am sick of putting people in body bags, it is

:08:57.:09:00.

not nice and if this initiative can make one or two people think twice,

:09:01.:09:02.

happy days. The force has launched a webpage

:09:03.:09:03.

which makes it easier It will then decide if an incident

:09:04.:09:06.

is worthy of investigation and prosecution and will contact

:09:07.:09:09.

the witness for a statement. Prestatyn driver Matthew Turner

:09:10.:09:13.

never travels without his in-car cameras and has filmed

:09:14.:09:15.

dozens of close calls. He was even a victim of road rage

:09:16.:09:17.

while riding his bike. Is it clear, otherwise I will... I

:09:18.:09:31.

think that those people will be and should be named and shamed they

:09:32.:09:35.

should not be on the roads. The camera has helped me to provide the

:09:36.:09:39.

evidence of showing people and showing them what they are doing. I

:09:40.:09:46.

have the peace of mind knowing that I can focus on how other people are

:09:47.:09:50.

driving but I have to draw in accordance with the law and the

:09:51.:09:54.

rules of the roads, just like everyone else does.

:09:55.:09:56.

The first person to be convicted on the strength of dashcam footage

:09:57.:09:59.

was in North Wales and this driver was banned for dangerous

:10:00.:10:02.

driving on the A468 between Caerphilly and Newport.

:10:03.:10:05.

The rise in the number of dashcam is means that more poor and dangerous

:10:06.:10:12.

driving is being -- being recorded than ever before but it is being

:10:13.:10:16.

disputed as to bother it is great for the public to take on the roll

:10:17.:10:19.

usually done by the police and whether this footage can tell the

:10:20.:10:20.

whole picture. The Institute of Advanced Motorists

:10:21.:10:21.

says cameras shouldn't take the place of police officers

:10:22.:10:23.

as they may not show the context But dashcams are relatively cheap

:10:24.:10:26.

costing between ?50 and ?200. It's estimated they're in 9% of cars

:10:27.:10:30.

so the message is - drive safely becuase you never know

:10:31.:10:32.

growing up in rural south-west Wales. This film was captured in the

:11:12.:11:18.

1970s. In the years that followed, a much darker chapter in her life

:11:19.:11:22.

developed. Between the ages of 14 and 16, she was indecently assaulted

:11:23.:11:30.

many times by a man twice her age. When the abuse were started, I just

:11:31.:11:33.

felt wretched. I felt confused and guilty that I had somehow attracted

:11:34.:11:38.

all of this unwanted attention to myself. From the onset and the

:11:39.:11:43.

escalation of the abuse, I just cringed in the school taxi every

:11:44.:11:48.

time Evan Heddwyn Jones touched me or spoke to me. My feelings were

:11:49.:11:51.

very much of guilt and self-loathing, confusion and being

:11:52.:11:58.

powerless to allow this to happen to me. I felt I was to blame. Farmer

Evan Heddwyn Jones was today sentenced to three years in prison

:12:04.:12:08.

after he was convicted of four pounds of indecently assaulting a

:12:09.:12:13.

child. The court heard that between 1976 and 1978, Evan Heddwyn Jones

:12:14.:12:17.

was employed by the local authority to pick up children from their farms

:12:18.:12:21.

in the local area and take them to the nearest bus stop. The Judge

:12:22.:12:24.

Keith Thomas said that Evan Heddwyn Jones took advantage of the

:12:25.:12:27.

situation because his victim was the last drop of point on his journey.

:12:28.:12:32.

In the 1970s, Evan Heddwyn Jones operated a school taxi service on in

:12:33.:12:36.

this area. The court heard that when he was alone in the vehicle with his

:12:37.:12:41.

victim that he put his hands inside her clothing and touched

:12:42.:12:44.

inappropriately. Esther has said that he taught others about what was

:12:45.:12:46.

happening to her at the time but that nothing was done about it. The

:12:47.:12:51.

police said the investigation relied on the strength of statements from

:12:52.:12:54.

the victim and her diary entries which contained details of the

:12:55.:13:00.

abuse. The impact that child sexual abuse has had on my life will never

:13:01.:13:05.

go away, however. I mean, I live in the countryside and at the age of

wife but that this would never go away. It has been with us from the

:13:18.:13:23.

start of our relationship 28 years ago. She told me about it early on

:13:24.:13:29.

and at times it has been devastating. Esther Hoad now lives

:13:30.:13:33.

with her family and despite sharing her story, she did not want to

:13:34.:13:38.

appear on camera. She wanted to show the fees instead of a young girl

:13:39.:13:42.

that was abused and whose life was changed for ever by that experience.

during the short hearing to say guilty when the

for her two-year-old son. David Nicholas Davies has

now admitted murder. The prosecution barrister appealed

with him to work with the police over the next few weeks

and that is because he does not accept all of the prosecution's

:15:19.:15:24.

the 15th anniversary of Aberfan. 116 children and 28 adults

:15:25.:15:33.

lost their lives when an avalanche of coal waste crashed

:15:34.:15:37.

onto the village primary school Many of those who survived have had

to deal with trauma, guilt and images that

:15:40.:15:42.

will never leave them. Tonight, BBC One Wales

:15:43.:15:44.

tells their stories It took just minutes for the coal

:15:45.:15:46.

tip above Aberfan to slide down the mountain and crash

:15:47.:15:56.

into Pantglas School below. 144 people died, 116

:15:57.:15:58.

of them were children. Now, 50 years on, people

:15:59.:16:00.

from the village have helped to make a film,

:16:01.:16:02.

telling the story of that day. Well, I was gasping for breath

:16:03.:16:10.

because the air was getting less and less, but at least I had that

:16:11.:16:13.

pocket of air, but the panic I think set in really -

:16:14.:16:16.

how was I going to get out? "I'm sure that somebody is under

:16:17.:16:24.

here," he was shouting. And when he dug out my son,

:16:25.:16:27.

I could feel the air coming into me. Oh, it was something

:16:28.:16:31.

out of this world. For six months, Steve Humphries

:16:32.:16:33.

worked with villagers. Some speaking in public

:16:34.:16:52.

for the first time. What I found to begin with was raw

emotion and I think in some ways when a stranger comes

in from outside and asks difficult Heti Williams was a

was and on the anniversary I came back to the school and I can

still see the children in their classes, I can

feel my children around me. And you can think back to the days

when it was a lovely place. He set out, he says,

to document stories of survival, but what emerged

:17:32.:17:33.

became more than that. The most extraordinary story

:17:34.:17:35.

of all was of a fireman, Len Haggart, who saved the life

:17:36.:17:44.

of a boy, Phil Thomas, but had never We could just not get him

could hear the people And I know they lifted

day, they were reunited. Central to the whole story

:18:21.:18:30.

of Aberfan, he found, was the young wives club,

:18:31.:18:38.

set up by bereaved mothers. That made us feel a lot better

:18:39.:18:40.

because we were all together doing things, you know,

:18:41.:18:43.

helping one another out that way. We must have been about 60 women

:18:44.:18:45.

and it was wonderful. The choir started after the disaster

:18:46.:18:53.

as a way to help cope. It was humbling to meet them

:18:54.:19:04.

and to be allowed into the community and to be told the stories and be

:19:05.:19:10.

that the told them to me. So I feel really honoured to have

been allowed to do it. And you can see Surviving

cattle. -- towels. It was horrible, the worst day of my life

:20:10.:20:13.

that is horrendous, they are like a family.

:20:14.:20:28.

They are not a number, it is heart-wrenching. Farmers like him

:20:29.:20:34.

face annual testing and restrictions on moving cattle. Since the latest

:20:35.:20:39.

measures were introduced in 2008, there has been a 37% fall in cases

:20:40.:20:46.

of TB in Wales. But the problem is concentrated butter pie higher

:20:47.:20:49.

incident levels here in West Wales and along the border with England.

:20:50.:20:53.

There has been a sharp rise in the number of cattle being slaughtered

:20:54.:20:57.

in recent years which has caused alarm in farming circles. Much of

:20:58.:21:00.

the debate has revolved around whether or not to cull badgers, they

:21:01.:21:05.

can also carry the TB infection. A five-year trial to vaccinate them in

:21:06.:21:09.

North Pembrokeshire was put on hold last year due to a global shortage

:21:10.:21:17.

of the TB jab. Now, farming leaders have set a cull is the only option.

:21:18.:21:23.

We have got an absolute vacuum in the last ten months since the

:21:24.:21:25.

cancellation of the vaccination programme, so now there is a real

:21:26.:21:28.

expectation that there will be a practical programme for improving

:21:29.:21:30.

the situation. In England and Northern Ireland, badger culling is

:21:31.:21:34.

being allowed in areas badly affected by TB, opponents have ever

:21:35.:21:38.

claimed it is counter-productive. One leading ecologist who spent her

:21:39.:21:42.

career studying how the disease is transmitted told me changes to

:21:43.:21:49.

farming practices could be the answer. Because the TB bacteria can

:21:50.:21:52.

survive in an environment for days, weeks or months, the infection is

:21:53.:21:55.

still present, even if the animal that was infected has gone. That is

:21:56.:21:59.

one of the reasons why TB is such a challenge to manage. The issue of

:22:00.:22:04.

how best to tackle TB continues to divide opinion. The disease itself

:22:05.:22:08.

is still causing real misery in rural Wales.

:22:09.:22:12.

Now, tomorrow the Welsh Government will announce how it plans

:22:13.:22:14.

on spending your money for the next year and where it'll

:22:15.:22:17.

It's got ?16 billion to play with - that's nearly 30% of the value

:22:18.:22:21.

Any change in spending is felt by private businesses too.

:22:22.:22:26.

Our economics correspondent Sarah Dickins has been looking

:22:27.:22:28.

at how that money can make it's way into private

:22:29.:22:31.

The latest section of the Heads of the Valleys Road, costing more than

:22:32.:22:49.

?220 million. There are 450 people working on this site, but the

:22:50.:22:52.

spending affects many more people than that. This is a very practical

:22:53.:22:57.

example about how government spending can affect communities and

:22:58.:23:01.

how public sector money becomes money in the private sector for

:23:02.:23:04.

small businesses. If the government has more or less, that is felt

:23:05.:23:11.

throughout all the different layers of the economy. The site is run by

:23:12.:23:16.

the UK firm cost that and it works terribly for the Welsh Government

:23:17.:23:18.

and contracts a number of smaller Welsh companies. The percentage that

:23:19.:23:23.

we sublet to local contractors is about two thirds of the but we

:23:24.:23:28.

subcontract. We try to encourage the employment of local and businesses.

:23:29.:23:33.

This is in addition to training up locally employed people as well.

:23:34.:23:37.

This part of the project, to make the A4 56 Heads of the Valleys Road

:23:38.:23:44.

a dual carriageway is very complex, as the takeaway rocks to mount in

:23:45.:23:47.

the gorge. The earth moving is carried out by a company with

:23:48.:23:52.

headquarters here. I have got in the region of 50 or 60 people working on

:23:53.:23:59.

the job. 20 or 30 excavators and dump trucks, so it is a big project

:24:00.:24:07.

for us in terms of our turnover. His company also pays other firms to

:24:08.:24:11.

carry out some of the work and hires in extra machinery. At Cardiff

business School they are already working at the effect the road will

have on the Welsh economy. There are many contract is involved on that

:24:20.:24:25.

and they themselves support for the contractor down the supply chain, so

:24:26.:24:28.

you can clearly see that the main contractor that is employed, through

:24:29.:24:33.

its activities as well, we'll support that economic activity in

:24:34.:24:37.

the wider economy. The wages of the many hundreds working on the project

:24:38.:24:40.

gets bent back in the local economy. For instance, they have to eat.

:24:41.:24:47.

Steve has had his own small catering business here for years, he is now

:24:48.:24:51.

flat out feeding the team on site. They get through 600 eggs each week.

:24:52.:24:57.

We are here from quota seven until half past two, we normally close

:24:58.:25:00.

just after two o'clock. We start off with breakfast, a mid-morning break

:25:01.:25:08.

and then onto lunchtime. Steve buys from local supermarkets and gets its

:25:09.:25:12.

vegetables from a local supplier. And so the money that started in the

that flow will increase or slowdown in the near future. -- we will hear

:25:21.:25:25.

whether that flow will increase. We've put the coins in Derek's meter

:25:26.:25:27.

- here's two minutes of weather! Tomorrow is St Luke's Day

:25:28.:25:34.

and around this time of year, warm weather is often called

:25:35.:25:37.

an Indian summer. Temperatures today are around

:25:38.:25:39.

average but tomorrow will be a few The air over us today has been

:25:40.:25:41.

unstable with big towering clouds and heavy showers but with some

:25:42.:25:46.

sunshine in between. There's also a few flood warnings

:25:47.:25:48.

to high astronomical tides caused The time of high water in Newport

to over 13 metres. This evening, clear spells

:26:03.:26:04.

and scattered showers. And then after midnight a cold front

:26:05.:26:07.

will bring more widespread rain. Breezy, especially on the coast,

:26:08.:26:12.

with lowest temperatures in Snowdonia dropping

:26:13.:26:18.

to around 6 Celsius. By 8am in the morning the worst

in the afternoon but most places remain dry with broken cloud

and sunny spells. Temperatures are lower than today

and that's heading our way. So, on Wednesday, a few

:27:20.:27:21.

scattered showers. Some sunshine as well

:27:22.:27:23.

with a dry end to the day. The outlook for the rest of the week
