“I can't believe that 80% of the Welsh population agree with the amount of money being wasted on this semi redundant language. As someone working in an English speaking school in Wales I can assure you that the overwhelming majority of the pupils detest the language been forced down their throats. By overwhelming I am talking about 99%.”

“"Welsh speakers never have to read or utter a word of English do they"

No they don't”

“Wow, the level of idiocy here has reached a staggering, record breaking level. And bypassing the immense idiocy of ****ging off Cymdeithas yr Iaith for the public money being thrown towards their work and staff, the level of political and financial knowledge here deserves a round of applause as well. The money you talk of, albeit in a very strange and confused way, is miniscule compared to a vast array of spending on things which many deem 'unnecessary' as you label the Welsh language. And it's always heartening to notice that it's always the Welsh that's being rammed down people's throats. Welsh speakers never have to read or utter a word of English do they, the jammy, fascist *******s.”

“Everyone probably has the right to use whatever language they want, as proved by many youngsters today who seem to almost use a language of their own. Well let me add, as long as they don't offend other by using foul language, again as too many seem to use these days. The only point I would raise is if it is being forced on others to their detriment. If manufacturers/employers were required by 'law' to use a language that was of no benefit, costly to implement, (as in having to produce documents in two or more languages for no gain), and may even lose public contracts for not using it, then there is something seriously wrong. Would new manufactures/employers be willing to move to Wales if such a 'law' was introduced ?, (other than because they received big incentives, (bribes ?)). Nationalism can be a two edge sword if starts to be controlled by the extremists, (anti-English). Especially now in what is supposed to be a society that is expected to be more open and International.
May the Welsh language survive for those who want to learn and us it. But imagine the outrage if Europe decided that we would all use French or German for all documentation and communication. As soon as someone wants to force their views on other, (for or against), then the greater the conflict becomes, and more entrenched to view. Look to the future, for your children, not to the long past for those ancestors.”

“You'll have to do better next time Bonheddwr. If anyone is lacking intelliegence - it's you. Claiming that those of us who've are fed up to the back teeth with our money being thrown at a dead language is not anti Welsh, we're anti Welsh language. The vast majority of people in Wales don't speak Welsh and don't want to speak Welsh. The Welsh language has no place in our day to day lives.
The only people who want to keep it going are those who make money from the Welsh language and as we all know, many of them consider themselves to be something special. I've got news for them - they ain't.”

“Haha, typical anti-Welsh brigade. Pathetic. I am glad to say that the vast majority of the people of Wales (80% according to a recent poll), both Welsh speakers and non Welsh speakers, are very supportive of the Welsh language, and Welsh language schools are growing at an ever increasing pace all around Wales. Long live our wonderful language, our unique contribution to the world! PS. The Welsh Language Society has never received a penny of public money. It is a voluntary organisation, funded by donations from members ONLY. Just goes to show the intelligence of some of the contributors here that they cannot differentiate between the Welsh Language Society and the Welsh language Board!”

“Welsh Language Society = Jobs for the Boyo's. Some years ago I arranged, at great expense, for the constitution of a group to be translated into Welsh. Oh what a fuss, when the translation was handed around to the Welsh speakers for checking. Could any of them agree on the wording - could they heck. What a joke and a waste of time, money and effort, because it was decided that in the event of any future problems with the constitution, the English version would take presidence over the Welsh one.

The only way the Welsh Language Society can protect Welsh speaking communities, would be to turn them into open prisons.”

“How about a referendem about whether the WLS continues to be funded with public money?
Another question should be whether the WLS is abolished and all laws brought in under their influence shall be abolished.
One thing I really object to is that all letters etc. from local and UK government must be bilingual when everyone knows that half of it goes straight in the bin.
GIVE ME A CHOICE. You only need to ask me once if I want Welsh or English versions of forms etc.
Why do the WLS insist on bilingual forms? Is it because they want their forms in Welsh but need them in English so that they can understand them.
Ask the people who are paying for this unelected body whether they want to continue being robbed to finance something they don't support.”

“The Money that goes to lanuages from Europe and agreements signed by goverments is huge.
Change it will have to do but in ways never envisaged by its creaters.
The future is Welsh very Welsh.”

“It's not about protecting Welsh speaking areas, which seems laudable but forcing it on all the peoples of Wales.
They don't class English as equal to Welsh or we'd have bilingual road signs, which they are against, steadfastly refusing to sign Bryncoch near here as Redhill too, along with a multitude of others, to the confusion of foreign visitors.”
