0:00:04 > 0:00:07Welcome to Wales Today.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10On a visit to Cardiff the Prime Minister attacks
0:00:10 > 0:00:12"divisive, obsessive nationalism" as she sets out her vision
0:00:12 > 0:00:16for a "more united" Britain.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18And left dangling above a volcano, the heart-stopping rescue
0:00:18 > 0:00:24for a family from Cardiff on holiday in Spain.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Good evening.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40The Prime Minister Theresa May has attacked what she called,
0:00:40 > 0:00:43the "divisive and obsessive nationalism of Plaid
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Cymru and the SNP".
0:00:46 > 0:00:48At the Welsh Conservatives spring conference Mrs May also insisted
0:00:48 > 0:00:53she would take account of the interests of the devolved
0:00:53 > 0:00:55nations when the official Brexit negotiations get underway in less
0:00:55 > 0:00:58than a fortnight.
0:00:58 > 0:01:03From the conference in Cardiff, our political editor Nick Servini.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06The big story may have been about Scotland all week,
0:01:06 > 0:01:10but Theresa May was in Wales today to push the case for
0:01:10 > 0:01:13the United Kingdom to stay together.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16And the gloves came off for the first time in response
0:01:16 > 0:01:21to Nicola Sturgeon's calls for another independence referendum
0:01:21 > 0:01:30as Theresa May set out her plan for all corners of the UK.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31To aspire to represent all of the country,
0:01:31 > 0:01:36and all the people, and today, our goal must be nothing less.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Because we are now the party of the new centre ground
0:01:39 > 0:01:44of politics, rejecting the extremes of Labour socialist left comment
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Ukip's libertarian right and the divisive and obsessive
0:01:47 > 0:01:52nationalisms of Plaid Cymru and the SNP.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55APPLAUSE
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Theresa May has just addressed a hall full
0:01:58 > 0:02:02of the Welsh Tory Party faithful and they are lapping it up
0:02:02 > 0:02:05particularly the message about the strength of the union.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09But in truth much of her message was directed in particular
0:02:09 > 0:02:13to the Scottish public who are considering the prospects
0:02:13 > 0:02:17of another independence referendum.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20As the Welsh party gears up for council elections, there
0:02:20 > 0:02:24was little from the Prime Minister specifically related to Wales.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28How did the speech go down with these party figures?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31It is what we should be hearing, having a United Kingdom
0:02:31 > 0:02:33fighting on the same side.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37We need to ensure in negotiations we are a one United Kingdom,
0:02:37 > 0:02:42important from a conservative point of view.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47Plenty to chew over and Brexit wasn't far from everyone's lips.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50A waiting game before Article 50 is triggered.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53There is less than a fortnight ago.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57In the meantime, there was little detail other than saying
0:02:57 > 0:03:00the referendum result was an instruction to change the way
0:03:00 > 0:03:02the country works forever.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Good morning, conference.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08The leader of the Welsh Conservatives set the tone
0:03:08 > 0:03:12at the beginning of the conference, to use his speech to
0:03:12 > 0:03:15warn of the dangers of tearing the union apart.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19I have got a message for the SNP and other separatist
0:03:19 > 0:03:21parties across our idols, the United Kingdom, we cherish it,
0:03:21 > 0:03:25it is not a thing of the past, it remains as ever the world's
0:03:25 > 0:03:31greatest family of nations.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Nicola Sturgeon, take note.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39The great union you see here today is here to stay.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41APPLAUSE
0:03:41 > 0:03:43You could say it has been a tough batting surface
0:03:43 > 0:03:46for the Tories this week with trouble over expenses
0:03:46 > 0:03:50and budget U-turns.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53So appropriately at an event at the stadium, they tried to move
0:03:53 > 0:03:58from defence to attack.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01The mother of a 22-year-old woman who was killed at a Bed
0:04:01 > 0:04:03and Breakfast by one of the residentsis said to be
0:04:03 > 0:04:06tormented by the idea that the first police officer at the scene
0:04:06 > 0:04:08delayed going in.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Paula Yemm, seen here on the right, told an inquest it might have
0:04:11 > 0:04:14resulted in her daughter's death.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Cerys Yemm was killed by Matthew Williams at
0:04:17 > 0:04:19the Sirhowy Arms in Argoed in 2014.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23PC Kelda Griffiths said she'd been instructed to wait for back up,
0:04:23 > 0:04:27and knew Matthew Williams had previously threatened to kill police
0:04:27 > 0:04:29officers and their children.
0:04:29 > 0:04:35He was tasered by police at the scene and died shortly after.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38A North Wales Police officer, who raped a woman as she slept,
0:04:38 > 0:04:40has been sacked from the force.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42A special misconduct hearing was held into PC
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Iain Clarke, who was jailed for five years yesterday.
0:04:44 > 0:04:50Mold Crown Court heard he had shown no remorse.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53The number of black bin bags dumped illegally across Wales has nearly
0:04:53 > 0:04:55doubled in the last three years.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57In Cardiff there's been a five fold increase.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00The council's appointed more Waste Enforcement Officers,
0:05:00 > 0:05:03but critics blame the closure of rubbish tips and changes
0:05:03 > 0:05:06to refuse collection.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Because of those changes and the cuts we are seeing to waste
0:05:09 > 0:05:11collection sites across Cardiff, it's a ridiculous situation
0:05:11 > 0:05:17and something that needs to change.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Because we've got statutory targets we have to hit for
0:05:20 > 0:05:23recycling, so all we are doing is, seem to people, look, you don't have
0:05:23 > 0:05:27to throw so much rubbish away.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29a lot of that that you think is rubbish,
0:05:29 > 0:05:31can actually be recycled and reused.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33A family is recovering from a terrifying experience stuck
0:05:33 > 0:05:36in a cable-car dangling above a Spanish volcano.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Berwyn Jones, wife Jennifer and six-year-old twins Kai and Erin
0:05:39 > 0:05:45eventually had to abseil 250 metres to safety, before spending the night
0:05:45 > 0:05:48in a mountain shelter.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51They're now back in their Tenerife hotel, but say it's a holiday
0:05:51 > 0:05:53they'll never forget.
0:05:53 > 0:05:54Nick Palit reports.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Mount Teide is Spain's highest peak.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00The cable car to the summit is popular with tourists
0:06:00 > 0:06:03from around the world.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Among the people in this stricken gondola dangling
0:06:05 > 0:06:09above the volcano on Wednesday were the Jones family from Cardiff.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12It was frightening beyond belief.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16The mountain is 3,800 metres.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Over three times the size of Snowdon.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22We had reached the 3,500m point.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26Suddenly the cable car stopped.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28That must've been a terrifying experience, you have
0:06:28 > 0:06:30young children as well?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33We have twins and one of the twins, my daughter, she is disabled.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37She has cerebral palsy.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41She is of reduced mobility.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45After four hours, authorities radioed through on how to get out.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48They opened the floor of the cable car.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52They set in place some ropes.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55We had to abseil down.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Seeing your six-year-old children and your wife having to abseil
0:06:59 > 0:07:02down was terrifying.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04A major rescue operation swung into action to help
0:07:04 > 0:07:07the 250 off the mountain.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11For some of those higher up like the Joneses, when they reached
0:07:11 > 0:07:14ground their ordeal was far from over.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16They still had to hike miles downhill to a concrete shelter
0:07:16 > 0:07:20as temperatures dropped down to minus ten.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23The mountain rescue guys carried my daughter all the way down.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27I helped my son all the way down the mountain.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Eventually, 15 hours later, they were winched off the mountain.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33An investigation has begun into what caused
0:07:33 > 0:07:35the cable car to malfunction.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36A holiday to remember.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40We're never going to forget this one!
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Rugby, and the Wales Under 20s squad lost their six nations
0:07:43 > 0:07:46game against France.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49The final score 40 -20 with the home side scoring six
0:07:49 > 0:07:54tries to Wales' two.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Look away now, it's the weekend weather forecast, here's Derek.
