So what does that mean? He'll be with me to explain. Join me now on

:00:00.:00:00.

Jeremy Corbyn tells us what his leadership means for Wales,

:00:00.:00:10.

how he'll fight for your vote, and those tensions between him

:00:11.:00:13.

And UKIP's new boss visits Wales to mend the rift

:00:14.:00:17.

But are we any clearer who's in charge in Wales?

:00:18.:00:39.

Lord Kinnock said there wouldn't be another Labour

:00:40.:00:43.

Government in his lifetime if Jeremy Corbyn remained leader.

:00:44.:00:45.

The Pontypridd MP, Owen Smith, who lost the leadership battle,

:00:46.:00:48.

said Mr Corbyn would leave the party in perpetual Opposition.

:00:49.:00:50.

But tonight, Jeremy Corbyn has told this programme

:00:51.:00:52.

it's time for Labour in Wales to get behind him.

:00:53.:00:54.

And he's dismissed reports of tensions in his relationship

:00:55.:00:57.

with the leader of the party in Wales, Carwyn Jones.

:00:58.:01:01.

David Cornock reports from Liverpool.

:01:02.:02:19.

I received the votes of over 300,000 people. They are the ones who

:02:20.:02:26.

deliver the leaflets, knock on doors and they are the ones who have asked

:02:27.:02:29.

me to lead the party. Wre going forward to win the election. Is he

:02:30.:02:37.

right, Pontypool is a solid Labour seat where Ukip took a percentage of

:02:38.:02:41.

the vote in the general election. Are voters here receptive to the

:02:42.:02:46.

message? I will not vote for him, though I've always voted Labour. I

:02:47.:02:54.

think he can get votes from those who don't engage in politics. Ape

:02:55.:02:57.

lot of the things he says resonates with normal people. Away from the

:02:58.:03:02.

cameras, Carwyn Jones and Jeremy Corbyn have fallen out in a power

:03:03.:03:06.

struggle over plans to let the Welsh Labour leader choose a member for

:03:07.:03:09.

the ruling executive. Mr Jones warned his UK leader that back

:03:10.:03:13.

sliding on those plans would be politically damaging in Wales. Why

:03:14.:03:18.

not let Carwyn Jones nominate a member of the NEC, why are you so

:03:19.:03:25.

resistant to that idea? I'm not resistant to the member at all. You

:03:26.:03:29.

don't want him to nominate it. I want agreement in the party about

:03:30.:03:33.

how the nomination should take place to the NEC so that he enjoys the

:03:34.:03:37.

confidence of the executive and so on in Wales. That surely is just a

:03:38.:03:42.

basic proposal. Car win and I get along fine. Corps win supporters --

:03:43.:03:48.

Corbyn supporters fear that allowing Jones to nominate the member could

:03:49.:03:50.

tilt the balance of power away from the leader.

:03:51.:03:56.

A former detective has told the BBC he believes double murderer,

:03:57.:03:58.

Christopher Halliwell, may also be linked to

the disappearance of a woman from Carmarthenshire.

:04:01.:04:01.

Her family has dismissed the claims and say

:04:02.:04:06.

her estranged husband is rightly serving life for her murder.

:04:07.:04:09.

Wiltshire Police say they're not linking Halliwell to any other

:04:10.:04:12.

murders and strongly discourages speculation.

:04:13.:04:15.

But Steve Fulcher questions why officers didn't follow up

:04:16.:04:18.

We were aware particularly of Linda Razzell - Whose husband is serving

:04:19.:04:37.

time for her murder. Exactly. She had a direct relationship with

:04:38.:04:42.

Halliwell. We know he has a propensity for killing women. He had

:04:43.:04:44.

a direct relationship with Linda. A jury at Mold Crown Court

has heard claims that a former senior police officer

on who's in charge? For the Ukip family in Wales,

there's been plenty to celebrate this year. From winning seven seats

:06:25.:06:27.

It's all smiles here today, but since Ukip entered the Assembly for

:06:28.:06:30.

the first time in May, this place has been the scene of bitter

:06:31.:06:35.

in-fighting between Ukip's Assembly Group Leader, Neil Hamilton, and

:06:36.:06:40.

Ukip Wales leader Nathan Gill. Another snap for the family album,

:06:41.:06:44.

but Nathan Gill was missing, apparently stuck in traffic. In the

Assembly too, he's stuck in a jam, having decided last month, in

both what the existing group wants at the moment and equally what Mr

:07:08.:07:13.

Gill wants. Who leads Ukip in Wales? She gave no answer to that question.

:07:14.:07:19.

In another interview, she said she understood it was this man, Neil

:07:20.:07:22.

Hamilton. His team say she's right to say so, in what will be seen as a

:07:23.:07:28.

blow to Nathan Gill who hasn't responded to BBC Wales's calls this

:07:29.:07:32.

afternoon. Our understanding constitutionally was that it wasn't

:07:33.:07:35.

Nathan any more and perhaps that was as far as we knew. What I saw on the

:07:36.:07:41.

television was that it was Neil Hamilton. But leader of the group

:07:42.:07:45.

and leader of Wales, you know, could be confusing I think. Speaking ahead

of today's visit, Diane James said she hoped to have a happy bunch of

Ukipers by the time she left Wales. But she may well have made the

:07:56.:07:57.

splits even deeper. Let's get the weather for Wales -

:07:58.:08:00.

Benaz has the forecast. We can look forward to a fine

:08:01.:08:05.

afternoon, first we have a bit of rain to deal with through tonight

:08:06.:08:11.

and tomorrow morning. Tonight we have low-level cloud, mist and fog,

:08:12.:08:15.

blustery conditions as well. Some rain on and off through the

:08:16.:08:19.

overnight period. Temperatures, not dropping too much. We are dragging

:08:20.:08:23.

in milder air. Temperatures in double figures for all of us. There

:08:24.:08:29.

is a mild start to tomorrow. We have this weather front which will push

:08:30.:08:31.

through, behind it high pressure building from the south. That will

:08:32.:08:35.

settle things down nicely by the afternoon. First thing for tomorrow

:08:36.:08:40.

morning, once you head out, leave the umbrella, it's looking quite

:08:41.:08:44.

miserable. Mist and fog and blustery conditions. Slowly, it will brighten

:08:45.:08:48.

up from the north and west. For the rest of the British Isles, yes, we

:08:49.:08:53.

have something brighter for Northern Ireland, western parts of Scotland.

:08:54.:08:57.

We can look forward to some sunshine. The further east you are,

:08:58.:09:01.

we have more cloud around and also some patchy rain and brisk winds. As

:09:02.:09:05.

that front clears, things will start to improve. Here in Wales tomorrow

:09:06.:09:09.

afternoon, it's a lovely afternoon to be out and about. We can look

:09:10.:09:12.

forward to some sunshine. Temperatures up to 19 Celsius. The

:09:13.:09:16.

winds easing. So it's a pleasant afternoon with those temperatures 17

:09:17.:09:20.

to 19 Celsius. Into a fairly quiet night. We'll see variable cloud. The

:09:21.:09:26.

winds will pick up again. Also some clear skies it's a dry night.

:09:27.:09:30.

Temperatures not dropping too much thanks to the wind. From nine to 14

:09:31.:09:35.

Celsius. Into Wednesday, it's a dry start, some sunshine to look

:09:36.:09:39.

forward. To a few showers, especially across the north and

:09:40.:09:42.

west. Brisk winds, touching gale-force, along coastal areas.

:09:43.:09:45.

More persistent rain coming into Wednesday night. That will clear

:09:46.:09:49.

through by the time we get to Thursday.

:09:50.:09:54.

We're back in breakfast with the latest news and sport from 6am.

:09:55.:09:58.

That's Wales Today. Thank you for watching. From all of us on the

:09:59.:10:00.

programme, good night.
