We're examining that now, on BBC Two. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Wales stood still this morning to remember and pay tribute to those | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
who lost their lives in the Manchester terror attack. | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
After reports of a suspicious vehicle in Newport - | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
the city is getting back to normal as police confirm | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
And Ukip launches its Welsh General Election manifesto - | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
the party says it will cut the cost of politics. | :00:22. | :00:39. | |
It was a moment for Wales to show its solidarity | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
and pay tribute to the victims of the Manchester terror attack. | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
Towns and city centres, as well as schools and workplaces | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
came to a standstill as part of a minute's | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
People stopped and fell silent to remember everyone affected | :00:55. | :01:07. | |
It is important that we all have to stand together. | :01:08. | :01:18. | |
We all have feelings about what has happened. | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
We feel for the families and the people who have lost their lives. | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
Their sentiments were echoed in Aberystwyth. | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
It could have been our kids at that concept. | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
I just feel sad for everybody involved. | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
22 people died in the attack at a pop concert, with the youngest | :01:39. | :01:46. | |
As children as well as adults tried to make sense of such terror, | :01:47. | :02:03. | |
In Wrexham, people are displaying their support on the Welsh flag, | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
The flag will stay in the market until Saturday before | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
Proceedings were opposed in the Assembly and in offices | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
and council buildings across the country. | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
Police forces here also paid tribute. | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
Outside the police headquarters, officers lined up | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
One of their own, and off duty officer from Cheshire, | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
64 people were injured on Monday night. | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
The family of one woman badly injured says her | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
Lisa Bridgett was hit by shrapnel which struck her hand and phone, | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
slowing down before hitting her face. | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
Tonight, another sign of the evolving security operation, | :02:51. | :02:59. | |
an increased presence of armed police officers at Holyhead port. | :03:00. | :03:10. | |
North Wales Police say the aim is to reassure travellers and deter | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
Today, Wales showed its support for the city of Manchester. | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
It was their chance to pause and remember and stand | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
in solidarity with those affected as they try to recover. | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
And tonight Newport city centre is getting back to normal | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
after the city centre was cordoned off for hours following reports | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
Police they don't believe the incidents to be terror related | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
but in light of the Manchester attack, they're urging | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
A suspicious car parked outside a shopping centre that for several | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
hours brought Newport to a standstill. | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
Earlier in the day, a bomb disposal robot removed a bag | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
The shopping centre and surrounding streets were evacuated. | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
Shop and office workers were told to wait behind police cordons. | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
All at a time when security is an everybody's minds. | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
Robot and bomb disposal units turning up. | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
They have turned up in Newport before. | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
It has been things as stupid as a box of nails ouside | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
You take a little hesitation when you analyse the situation | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
There were reports of another suspicious device on the nearby | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
The road closures causing major congestion across Newport. | :04:27. | :04:36. | |
This evening, the streets, roads and city centre have reopened. | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
Many here acting calmly and with understanding to today's events. | :04:40. | :04:50. | |
This evening the police say both incidents are not believed to be | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
terror related and they thanked people for their patience. | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
They are now moving this car from outside the shopping centre. | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
It caused widespread disruption across new sport, | :05:01. | :05:12. | |
the result of police precautions at a time when people say | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
And with security heightened and an increased police presence | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
Leanne Wood, has criticised funding cuts to the police in the wake | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
She was appearing on BBC Wales' Ask The Leader programme. | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
It is difficult to imagine doing a job where you have to run into a | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
situation of danger when everybody else is running away. | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
I know that, from the police officers that I have | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
spoken to in recent times, there is a lot of anger there. | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
Also appearing tonight's Ask The Leader programme - | :05:47. | :05:53. | |
He said that people in Western society do not feel they can | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
honestly discuss what he called "problems" that exist | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
There is a strand of Islam which is extreme and fundamentalist who do | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
not believe that women have any place in society, for example. | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
It doesn't matter how tiny the percent is. | :06:09. | :06:19. | |
Meanwhile, launching Ukip's Welsh general | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
election manifesto today, Neil Hamilton, defended his party's | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
decision to resume campaigning - saying terrorism "must be defend | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
by the democratic process continuing. | :06:33. | :06:33. | |
Parties suspended their campaigns for two days | :06:34. | :06:41. | |
Most will resume their national campaigning tomorrow, | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
whilst Ukip decided to restart today. | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
It would be a victory for the terrorists if we cowered away, | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
as he launched his party's Welsh manifesto. | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
Well, there's a promise to reduce the cost of politics. | :06:55. | :07:02. | |
No increase in the number of Assembly Members. | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
And a limit on the cost of government. | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
Those earning the minimum wage would pay no income tax | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
Police and Crime Commissioners would be scrapped. | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
And they would also back the Swansea Bay | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
It also includes pledges on devolved issues such as health and education, | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
highly unlikely to be implemented, given that Ukip Assembly Members | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
Entitled Wales Into The World, Ukip's manifesto offers a vision | :07:25. | :07:36. | |
for the country after Brexit, but there are serious | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
questions about Ukip's future now that we are leaving | :07:39. | :07:40. | |
Since their breakthrough in last year's Assembly election, | :07:41. | :07:49. | |
when they won seats for the very first time, the party's opinion poll | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
It is hard, you are right, and that's why we are in the process | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
of changing people's perceptions of us. | :07:57. | :07:57. | |
Even on the most pessimistic polls, | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
one in 20 of the population supports Ukip. | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
But such support is unlikely to change the fact that Ukip | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
In fact, the party is only standing candidates in 32 | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
of the 40 Welsh seats after having a full slate in 2015. | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
Is Ukip going backwards with Neil Hamilton at the helm? | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
You've seen the polls that suggest your personal | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
Yes, but I'm not the leader of the party, I'm not seeking | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
to become Prime Minister, I'm merely the leader | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
of the group in the Assembly, and I can tell you... | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
Even among your own supporters the numbers aren't great. | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
When Christine first took me home to meet her mother, | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
she took the same view of me but I grew on her over the years | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
and I hope I have the same effect on the Welsh people. | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
We'll see in exactly two weeks' time. | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
Two men from north Wales have been charged with the murder | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
21-year-old Shkelzen Dauti also known as "Genny" from Albania, | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
died after being found stabbed in the early | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
27-year-old Christopher Jones, from Denbigh, and Lee Williams, | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
also 27 and from Flintshire, are due before Southampton | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
Two men and two women have been charged following | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
a Dyfed-Powys Police's investigation into historical child abuse | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
place at Rhydygors School in the 70s and 80s, and Cartref-Y-Gelli | :09:30. | :09:42. | |
children's home between 1986 and 1990. | :09:43. | :09:56. | |
A bridge that block the river at the time and led to the flooding of more | :09:57. | :10:05. | |
than 400 homes. Despite the disruption, inconvenience and | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
timescale, this 30 tonne Reg Spann is a welcome arrival. It is one of | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
five sections of a cross link that will provide protection against | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
flooding. When they are ready, they will take out the old bridge and the | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
new bridge will have a new level higher than the old bridge. The | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
bridge would have to be replaced. When the rains came in 20 12,000 of | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
people had to leave their homes and 91-year-old Margaret Hughes died. It | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
was already high and debris piling up led in part to the water bursting | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
its banks. After a couple of days of sunny weather, the river level is | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
low. Hard to believe that the water over to the bridge at all of this | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
area was submerged. Now a higher bridge should reduce that happening | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
again. The spectacle of an 80 foot crane has attracted onlookers, one | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
of the city mayor. He says this work is reassuring for many. When we get | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
more than a day's rein in the winter, the residents are so worried | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
about it. It is unbelievable. This will give tremendous relief to most | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
of our residents. The old bridge will be removed and the project will | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
be completed by winter, when its effectiveness could be put to the | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
test. Time for a look at the weather. Is the sunshine going to | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
continue? For one more day. The warmest day of the year so far. 28 | :11:40. | :11:47. | |
Celsius and if anything it could be even hotter tomorrow. If we take a | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
look at the map, a coastal mist and largely clear. Large wins and very | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
mild. Those of 13 Celsius. Closer to the average daytime temperatures for | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
me. High pressure brings settled weather tomorrow, drawing up here | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
from the continent. This front is edging closer. Tomorrow, any early | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
Mr Cockburn back to the coast and turning warm and sunny. With strong | :12:13. | :12:21. | |
sunshine and high UV levels. The weather cloud at times. Temperatures | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
in the mid-20s and high 20s likely in south England. These sunny | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
afternoon with temperatures in the high 20s. The breeze picking up in | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
the west later. High-pressure is likely to break down as we head into | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
the weekend. This cold front will push in from the west overnight on | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
Saturday as it hits the air, increasing risk of thundery showers. | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
Pleasantly warm tomorrow and cloud thickening from the west. Mild, | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
Misty and muddy and thundery showers overnight. Those showers will come | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
in from the south-west on Saturday morning. Improving through the day | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
and south-westerly wins. Still quite warm. The 20s. A much fresher feel | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
on Sunday. Sunny spells and cloud and maybe the odd shower. | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
Temperatures back nearer the May average. And he very much. We will | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
be back with updates from around 6:25am in to BBC Breakfast. From all | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
of us here, thank you for your company and he very good night. | :13:28. | :13:28. | |
Goodbye. | :13:29. | :13:32. |
