All it does is allow people (as they are doing on this thread) to critise the Welsh language and anybody who tries to defend it.
By the time this thread ends we will see 'Welsh Nazis' 'waste of resources' 'nobody speaks welsh anymore' etc from people who have an axe to grind because they dont, cant or wont speak Welsh.
We should be proud of our language and traditions, or else we will end up like the English who have joyfully destroyed their own traditions pandering to others.
Yma o'r hyd.
Not criticising anyone who WANTS to speak Welsh IN THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENT but I am critical of the unecessary use of finances to ram it down peoples throats 'just to make a political statement' as it COSTS LOTS OF MONEY to do so and, in all truth, the majority of people in Wales are pretty ambiguous when it comes down to hard facts![]()
The four major 'international' languages are English, French, Spanish and Chinese and if Wales really WANTS to do serious business in the world then it surely isn't going to be in Welsh, is it?![]()
A historic tongue which SHOULD be preserved but NOT at the expense of nurses, teachers and other critical services that are being eroded whilst the Welsh Language Society appears to be getting more and more (both on a financial and poloitical level)![]()

Please get your facts right before calling perfectly reasonable people (albeit with an alternate view to yours) Nazis because that, my friend, IS TRULY OFFENSIVE![]()

I didnt call anyone Nazis. I said the words would be shortly used at some point on this because they always are.
And they were, my friend.

Embrassing for ANYONE who used the term![]()
