want to make it very clear to anybody in wales and anybody thinking of travelling to wales, wales remainst thing to do, it risks all the achievements we have made together. don't do it. you mention that the current rate for r is about 0.8. are there differing values for randa 0.8. are there differing values for r and a close a setting like at home is, what would have two reach to come a further loosening or tightening of restrictions? the r rate is measured in three different locations— hospitals, where it has load at lower, in at the committee and in the care homes. the evidence in the care homes is less of a volume of its it was harder to be precise but we think it is above where it is in the community. we will watch the level in the community like a hawk, so that if there is any sign that it is heading again to the1.1 there is any sign that it is heading again to the 1.1 at levels that i showed in the slide this morning, then we will reimpose some of the restrictions that we already see. so it is not a matter, of putting those things into practice and saying there is nothing to do abou

that's why our message to people in wales is very simple. stay local, keep wales safe.iven by the government hear it whence mr, and as you say, the chancellor will set out details later about how the job retention scheme will change. —— the government here at westminster. this is the scheme the government put in place in april which is currently paying the wages of 80% of workers whose employer has taken advantage of the scheme, up to a maximum of £2500 per worker per month. originally, it was set to run till the end ofjune, but it will now go on till october. as for how much it is costing, figures this week show that 8.4 million workers are now covered by the scheme at a cost of £10 billion per month, and the overall cost according to the government's tax and spending office the office for budgetary responsibility, could be up to £80 billion. so you can see from those eye watering numbers that this is a hugely expensive scheme for the government to run. we will hear later how the chancellor plans to extend it, and we think he will say employers who are taking advantage

the first minister of wales, mark drakeford, will today set out a plan for how wales could exit its coronavirusong with scotland and northern ireland, has kept its ‘stay home' restrictions in place while england has started to ease the lockdown. mr drakeford is not expected to give any firm dates, but will warn that people will have to learn to live with covid—19 in society. this morning he told us wales will be taking a cautious approach and monitoring the rate of infection closely. we are using a traffic light system. we are saying to people here, we are in lockdown at the moment, the first thing we will do will be to move into the red zone, it won't look very different to what we are doing now, it will be the careful, cautious first steps that we can take together. we will monitor that really carefully. provided the virus doesn't start circulating again, we will be able to move into the amber zone. in the amber zone, there will be more things that people can do — meeting friends and family, schools beginning to reopen, going shopping, all of those normal things. again, monitor it really care

much of england and wales did stay dry, with plenty of sunshine.in the morning thanks to this weather front bringing outbreaks of rain to the north—west of the country. but high pressure will continue to build in across the south, so that will turn things dry as we head through sunday afternoon. we start the day off, though, with temperatures in double figures for most. that's because we'll start with quite a bit of cloud cover around, and still a fair old breeze out there. it will be quite wet, western scotland in towards north—west england initially, and it looks like the cloud will tend to break up with increasing amounts of sunshine, especially across england and wales, and into the afternoon across northern ireland. these are the mean wind speeds, so you can see quite fresh out there but nothing as strong as what we had on saturday. with slightly lighter winds, more sunshine again in the south, temperatures will creep up to around 22, maybe 23 degrees in the south. high teens further north. on sunday night, the winds turn lighter still. as hig

basically you cannot drive to exercise in wales.hat has been ok, we've not heard about too many transgressions in wales and the last few weeks. but with things evolving in england at a slightly different pace and the prime minster this evening actually talking about people getting in their cars to go and exercise, what happens now with people deciding to drive over the border? for some people it is only a couple of miles. they regularly make that journey couple of miles. they regularly make thatjourney potentially couple of miles. they regularly make that journey potentially for work couple of miles. they regularly make thatjourney potentially for work or to go to the nearest supermarket. if they want to go for a walk on the brecon beacons, they could find themselves in a lot of trouble with themselves in a lot of trouble with the police because it is still an offence here in wales to use a vehicle to go in exercise. so i'm sorry, you won't be able to come see me atany sorry, you won't be able to come see me at any time soon. i'm so

but again, despite the cloud across england and wales, the air is quite warm here, so still 20 to 25d and in towards central and western scotland. but to the north of it, dry, little bit cooler with some sunshine to the south of it, plenty of sunshine for england and wales and, again, another warm day, 25 or 26 will be the high, closer to the mid—teens in the north. but that fresher air in the north gets pushed away northwards as high pressure changes its position, moves to the east of the uk and starts to draw up this warm, southerly wind from the near continent. that will drive the warmth northwards into scotland and northern ireland as we reach the end of the week, and it'll be very warm for england and wales with plenty of sunshine. this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. i'm aaron safir. uk prime minister boris johnson stands by his chief advisor, rejecting calls for him to resign over allegedly breaking coronavirus lockdown rules. i believe that in every respect, he has acted responsibly, and legally, and with integrity. in hong ko

wales, scotland and northern ireland all agree on policy and message. malice, but for the sake of clarity, can he confirm that in almost everything he has announced today, the prime minister is acting as the prime minister of england? prime minister. no, mr speaker, i reject that completely, and i think that most people looking at what we're saying will know that it carries — it is very good advice for the entire population of the united kingdom — though i perfectly respect the inflections and variations that may be necessary both locally, regionally and nationally to reflect differences in those areas. all in all, a less than comfortable hourfor borisjohnson, who faced mps again on wednesday for prime minister's questions. this time, the focus was on the government's record in tackling the epidemic in care homes. mr speaker, in his speech on sunday, the prime minister said that we need to rapidly reverse the awful epidemic in our care homes. but earlier this year, and until the 12th of march, the government's own official advice was — and i'm quoting f

it was the coldest may night for 25 years in wales.uth, relatively, in orkney, we had a bit of snow covering the grassy surfaces as well with that colder air arriving behind this cold front. now, as we go through the next few hours, that is pushing southwards. it's weakening all the while, but it's still going to be enough just enough to knock down the temperatures a few degrees across eastern parts of england. so it is going to feel a little bit cooler as we head into wednesday. as i say, though, the front itself is going to disintegrate, so any rain will tend to die away over the next few hours. and in many ways, it's a reversal of fortunes compared with last night. england and wales, quite a lot of places frost—free. scotland, a sharp frost developing here. so, wednesday, a cold start to the day. scotland, northern england with some sunshine, a few showers across northern and eastern areas. and after a cloudy start across wales, parts of the midlands, east anglia, southern england, that cloud will probably tend to break up with some
