Good evening. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
A body found in the ruins of a collapsed building | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
at Didcot Power Station has been identified as | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
Christopher Huxtable, from Swansea. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
The 34-year-old had been missing since the collapse in February. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:26 | |
The MP for Swansea East, Carolyn Harris - says his family | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
have suffered mental torture for the last six months. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
Rhiannon Wilkins reports. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
The early hours of Wednesday morning | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
and the team searching for the three workers still missing | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
at the Didcot power station, form a guard of honour | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
as a body was found. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
Thames Valley Police today confirmed it was formally identified | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
as Christopher Huxtable and sent their thoughts | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
to his family in Swansea, who are now being supported | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
by specially trained officers. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
The family had previously criticised the rescue operation | 0:00:57 | 0:01:01 | |
for being too slow. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
The MP for Swansea East Carolyn Harris today paid tribute | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
to Mr Huxtable. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:08 | |
Very sad. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
My heart and my prayers go to the family who have been waiting | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
desperately for Christopher's body to be found. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
They can now have closure. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
They can say goodbye to Christopher and they can grieve his loss. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
The building was due for demolition when it partially collapsed | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
in February killing Michael Collins from Teesside, | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Ken Creswell and John Shaw, both from Rotherham, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
are still missing. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
The main section was brought down using exposes in July and the search | 0:01:34 | 0:01:38 | |
for the remaining men continues. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
Around 100 protestors gathered in Cardiff | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
to voice their opposition to Wales' vote to leave | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
the European Union in June. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
It was one of the demonstrations organised across several UK cities | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
by the group "March for Europe" - calling for stronger ties | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
with the EU. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
But campaigners from the Leave side say the referendum result six weeks | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
ago must be accepted. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
Yes, the vote went one way but there was | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
no alternative offered and, I think, in any democracy, | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
any decision is open to challenge. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
We don't close down debate after general elections, | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
opposition parties continue to argue their case and I think that | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
it's absolutely right that people in this country continues to argue | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
the case for Britain's partnership with Europe. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
What's important now is that we don't give tags to people. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
We don't say "Brexiteers", we don't say people were "Remainders". | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
We actually all come together in the best interests of Britain | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
and, indeed, Europe. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
By continuing to fight the referendum campaign | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
that was decided by the vote on June 23, actually, | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
is doing no one any favours. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
The owners of the former Friction Dynamic site in Caernarfon | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
have been urged to develop the site before it falls | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
into further delapidation. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
Plaid Cymru politicians, Hywel Francis and Sian Gwenllian | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
say they plan to meet with the new owners later | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
this month, and have called on them to bring skilled jobs to the site. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:04 | |
The 27-acre site has laid empty since the factory closed in 2008. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
Arriva Trains Wales has been trialling a new system in Cardiff | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
today, to try and avoid long passenger queues for trains | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
after major events. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
Both Central and Queen Street stations are being used, | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
for different destinations. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
30,000 people were expected at the Principality Stadium | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
for the Monster Jam truck event today, | 0:03:25 | 0:03:26 | |
and Arriva wants to iron out | 0:03:26 | 0:03:30 | |
issues before 74,000 people attend the Champions League final next May. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:36 | |
War veteran and author, Eileen Younghusband | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
has died, at the age of 95. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
She worked in the Filter Room - the secret hub of Britain's air | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
defence, during the second World War, tracking enemy aircraft. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
She moved to Wales in 1984 and campaigned on health | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
and education issues - | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
earning her the British Empire Medal in 2012. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
Her latest book for children was published | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
only weeks before her death. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
Rugby, and Cardiff Blues take on Edinburgh in the Pro12 | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
a little later tonight - but a disappointing afternoon | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
at home for the Scarlets. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
They took on Munster - who were the better side - | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
beating them 13-23. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
And in the football, in League Two Newport's game | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
was abandoned at half time because of a water-logged pitch | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
- a frustrating one for Barnet after scoring within 23 seconds - | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
the fastest goal scored in the English football | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
league this season, but it won't count when the game is replayed. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
And in the National League it was a two-all draw for Wrexham | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
away to Maidstone United. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
Let's take a look at the weather, and the wet and windy weather | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
will clear through the evening, | 0:04:37 | 0:04:38 | |
to leave occasionally clear spells, | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
and scattered - perhaps heavy - showers. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
Further showers will develop in the north by dawn, | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
with temperatures down to around 13 Celsius. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
Then tomorrow morning, we'll see scattered showers, | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
becoming fewer and further between with longer sunny spells | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
developing by the afternoon. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
Top temperature 20 celsius. | 0:04:54 | 0:05:00 | |
That's Wales Today - I'll be back tomorrow | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
evening at ten to six, hope you can join me then, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
but for now, thanks for watching, and enjoy your evening. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 |
