Here, on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Tonight's headlines: Theresa May campaigning in Wales, | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
in Labour's heartlands, with a plea to support her | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
or face what she called a coalition of chaos. | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Plaid Cymru's leader, Leanne Wood, launches her party's | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
She says Labour is too weak to stand up for Wales. | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
And the drugs gang accused of the murder of one | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
The Prime Minister has called on voters to abandon their tribal | :00:27. | :00:51. | |
loyalty to the Labour Party as she made her first visit to Wales | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
In a speech to supporters in the Conservative target seat | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
of Bridgend, Theresa May claimed every single vote would strengthen | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
Our political editor Nick Servini was there. | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
Ladies and gentlemen, please give the warmest | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
of welcomes, the loudest cheers for the Prime Minister | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
The Conservatives are trying to keep a lid on their excitement, | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
but the noise and smiles for Theresa May in Bridgend | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
I'm really pleased to be able to be here in Wales, | :01:23. | :01:30. | |
and to say to Wales, how important Wales | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
is to me, because Wales is important to our country. | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
Wales could also become important for the Conservative Party if it | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
sees a big improvement in its fortunes, as was suggested | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
Theresa May's visits to Labour consistencies in Newport | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
and Bridgend is a statement of intent that the party is looking | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
In a speech to activists she insisted time and again that | :01:57. | :02:05. | |
every single vote counted, as she looked on in her hand | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
every single vote counted, as she looked to strengthen her hand | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
in Brexit negotiations, which she claimed was under threat. | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
What we see from other parties is that they want | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
They've shown that they are willing to do anything to disrupt | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
the Brexit negotiations and stop us from leading | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
Remember the polls were wrong in 2015. | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
They were wrong in the referendum last year. | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
Jeremy Corbyn has said he was a 200 to one outsider | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
for the leadership in 2015, look where that one went. | :02:43. | :02:52. | |
This was a message to the Conservative party faithful. | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
But there was a wider message as well for Labour voters to look | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
again at their tribal loyalty to their party. | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
But, you know, the Tories may think things are going reasonably well, | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
but this is a huge job, in which many Tory party | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
There hasn't been a Tory MP and Bridgend since the days | :03:06. | :03:18. | |
There hasn't been a Tory MP in Bridgend since the days | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
We still don't know who their candidate will be. | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
Theresa May was just around the corner giving a speech, | :03:24. | :03:35. | |
do you think the Conservatives can win Bridgend? | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
People really don't want to be in Europe anymore. | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
I think that will be the thing everything hinges on in the end. | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
Can the Conservatives win in Bridgend? | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
To me there is no Labour Party anymore. | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
I think I've noticed a lot of people are turning Tory. | :03:56. | :04:05. | |
She's a woman, she's a little bit like Margaret Thatcher. | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
Bridgend is the Assembly seat of the Welsh Labour | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
leader Carwyn Jones, who was asked about the Tories | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
I am not going to turn up in Maidenhead any time soon! | :04:16. | :04:38. | |
What's important is that people see the Tories for what they are. | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
Their idea is to say nothing and do something. | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
We want Labour MPs who will stand up from Wales and not | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
Stunt or not, the Prime Minister went to a steel company in Newport. | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
These are the early skirmishes of what would be a short | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
But the heavy lifting for all the parties is still to come. | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
And tomorrow on Radio Wales a full interview with the Prime Minister. | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
Theresa May speaking to Good Morning Wales ust after 8.00am. | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
Theresa May speaking to Good Morning Wales just after 8.00am. | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
Plaid Cymru's leader was in Bangor to launch her party's | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
Leanne Wood claimed Theresa May's Conservatives | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
would damage Wales and that Labour was too weak and divided | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
Fresh snow on the mountain in Plaid Cymru's heartlands. | :05:14. | :05:24. | |
And just across the Menai Strait, Anglesey, Ynys Mon, | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
And geography is important to Plaid Cymru at UK general | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
elections they've never really managed to break out | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
While the official opposition in Westminster is divided | :05:36. | :05:45. | |
and riven with infighting, Plaid Cymru's message in this | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
Brexit, and specifically what type of Brexit, is the backdrop | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
Plaid Cymru's slogan is Defending Wales. | :05:54. | :06:03. | |
Leanne Wood, the party's leader, insists the country | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
It's vitally important now that Wales has strong voices | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
in Westminster to defend our people and very nation from | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
Why can't Labour do that, they would be better placed | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
than you, at most you only have a handful of MPs, don't you? | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
Well, since June we've heard more talk of Gibraltar | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
than we've heard about Wales, Labour MPs have failed | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
to stand up for Wales, failed to put forward the Welsh | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
national interest in this crucial time in our history. | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
It's down to Plaid Cymru to be that voice for Wales. | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
They are not able to form the opposition that is needed now. | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
Plaid Cymru always find UK elections more difficult to fight | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
Their leader, candidates and party members will spend the next | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
six weeks telling us that they are relevant, | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
they can make a difference, and they will stand up for Wales. | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
To do that they are evoking the threat of Conservatives past | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
as a way of attacking what they see as a weakening Labour vote now. | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
This is what a Leanne Wood told the BBC's Daily Politics. | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
People in Wales would do well to remember the Tory's record. | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
I grew up in the valleys, in the 1980s, when Margaret Thatcher | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
was Prime Minister and she decimated the coal industry. | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
It's a direct pitch for disenchanted Labour voters, they've done that | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
But this election is being fought in unique circumstances. | :07:22. | :07:32. | |
Workers at the Ford factory in Bridgend will be balloted | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
for industrial action, amid uncertainty over | :07:38. | :07:38. | |
the plant's future that's according to the Unite Union. | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
It was revealed earlier this year that the plant could be downsized | :07:42. | :07:43. | |
Ford has called the ballot premature and said it remained committed | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
to on-going constructive dialogue with unions. | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
A former Powys primary school teacher has admitted a string | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
of historical sex offences against young girls. | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
Swansea Crown Court heard that Gordon Fleming from Oswestry, | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
seen here at a previous court appearance, abused two dozen | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
He pleaded guilty to 24 counts of indecently sexually assaulting | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
A Rhyl drug dealer was murdered by a rival gang in revenge | :08:13. | :08:21. | |
for an earlier attack a court has heard. | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
Mark Mason was stabbed more than 20 times in a supermarket | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
Three men from Liverpool deny his murder. | :08:26. | :08:36. | |
It was early evening on October 27th when a black BMW followed | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
Four men began attacking the van's occupants. | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
48-year-old father of two Mark Mason was fatally stabbed | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
over 20 times as he sat in the passenger seat. | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
Two other men were stabbed in the leg whilst fleeing vehicle. | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
The jury was told that a man named Jake Melia had already pleaded | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
guilty to the murder and two counts of wounding. | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
But that the three men in the dock were also responsible. | :09:01. | :09:02. | |
31-year-old Anthony Baines, Mark Ennis, whose 30 and 20-year-old | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
James Davies are alleged to be members of a Liverpool gang | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
called the Pensarn Crew, supplying heroin and crack | :09:12. | :09:13. | |
It's claimed they murdered Mark Mason in retaliation | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
for confronting two of the gang earlier that day wearing a balaclava | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
and wielding a machete near Marine Lake in Rhyl. | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
It alleged Jake Melia and James Davies armed themselves | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
with kitchen knives, and contacted Anthony Baines | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
and Mark Ennis who travelled from Liverpool to Rhyl to look | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
The prosecution say it matters not which defendants | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
attacked which victims, each bears equal responsibility | :09:39. | :09:39. | |
for the murder of Mark Mason and the unlawful wounding | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
The men deny the charges on the case continues. | :09:43. | :09:45. | |

Football, and Wales have been drawn against England | :09:49. | :09:50. | |

There will be some players on the pitch for | :10:08. | :10:19. | |
England who I have played with, and have many interesting memories | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
It will be an interesting challenge for the group | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
A new look route means the UK's biggest road cycling event won't be | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
riding through North and Mid Wales this year, but the event | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
The final stage of the Tour of Britain will start in Worcester | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
and pass through Monmouthshire and Newport, before finishing | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
It's the first time, for a number of years, | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
that the Tour of Britain has finished outside London. | :10:48. | :10:55. | |
This year it will finish on the streets of Cardiff. | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
The final stage is special, because it boils down | :10:59. | :11:00. | |
All of the atmosphere and all of the action. | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
Everything will be leading to Cardiff on September 10th. | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
It's going to be be big for the city. | :11:10. | :11:11. | |
It's almost May and there's been snow today in some parts. | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
It will turn milder later this week but at the moment it is more like | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
winter. We have had snow on the mountains today and if you are our | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
garden now watch out for the frost tonight. A few showers around | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
tonight. Wintry in places. Most places will become dry and clear | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
overnight. Temperatures in mid Wales fall below freezing, with Frost. A | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
cold start tomorrow but much of the country bright and crisp with lots | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
of spring sunshine. A few showers in the West. Across the west of the new | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
K -- the rest of the UK sunshine and showers sums it up. Most | :11:51. | :12:03. | |
showers in England, at the blazes with hail thunder possible and sleet | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
and snow. Fewer showers in the West. The North West of Scotland clouds | :12:08. | :12:09. | |
over with patchy rain. The wind eases and temperatures are on the | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
cold side. 9 degrees in Norwich. A few showers in Wales tomorrow | :12:13. | :12:14. | |

sunshine in the north and west. Temperatures on the cold side but | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
out of the breeze and in the sunshine it should feel OK. | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
Beautiful in Snowdonia tomorrow with the Arctic air in place and | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
fantastic visibility. 7 degrees in Llanberis. Lots of sunshine. It will | :12:32. | :12:38. | |

increase and spots of rain in the north and breast. On Thursday a | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
bright start in the south-east to clouds over with spots of rain | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
spreading to the south. Dry weather in the afternoon as well. | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
Temperatures begin to rise a few degrees. That trend continues on | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
Friday with a milder day and a few showers around, otherwise a lot of | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
dry weather and sunshine in places and temperatures back into double | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
figures. Temperatures begin to rise later this week and on the bank | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
holiday weekend, Saturday, it is likely to be dry and warm as well. | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
The signs are we may see some rain on Sunday. Thank you very much. | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
Good Morning Wales on BBC Radio Wales with the Prime Minister just | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
From all of us on the programme, goodnight. | :13:24. | :13:41. | |
I've got some good news. Did you hear? | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
What are you talking about? What? What? | :13:44. | :13:48. |
