The old Wylfa nuclear power station, adjacent to the proposed site of the new reactor. It was closed in 2015. It started in 1971. So clearly that was well established with the welsh language all around it .. for decades. Its almost like it must be something in the new plans that caused the new problem. Twitter is saying ….. ‘Wylfa Newydd wasn't cancelled because of the Welsh language, this is a completely political spin, Wylfa was dropped because of refusal from Westminster to give the funding. Horizon actually did its best to make language commitments such as requiring that 85% local Welsh staff …’. What about the recent jobs lost in Port Talbot and Grangemouth, Scotland ? All the fault of the welsh language, as well…? Wales can have both good jobs and the welsh language. Thats just normal the world over.

Correct me if I'm wrong You don't want new jobs to go to Anglesey as it would affect Welsh speaking I read it as such Now that would mean people talking in their language of choice even though their children's futures are seeing no new well paid jobs coming The result is that they move away to work And speak the lingua franca I see Welsh as an utter curse in this regard People literally stopping jobs just because the new company would bring more English emigres It is beyond incredible | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Wales can’t afford to lose jobs because of the Welsh language I’d say. It’s not only the DM that’s reporting this in this way so there is a lot of truth to it. And no, the Welsh language isn’t going to affect jobs in Grangemouth nor would I say in Port Talbot. But Anglesey is a bit more of a hot bed iof Welsh speakers (proper ones not just taught compulsorily in school but never use it) so I wonder what the locals would prefer, language protection or bread on the table. Locals will benefit from the project even if there’s an influx of outsiders. Jobs building the plant, working at the plant and businesses in the area. Possibly even supply chain businesses there or close by. | ![](/images/avatars/8799.gif) |

Or real agenda being anti democracy, anti British, anti the 80% of Welsh people who speaks English. You seem to be intent on forcing the views of 20% of the Welsh population onto the majority that is not how democracy works.

That assumes that the 80% all want the welsh language to die though, doesn’t it. In regards to the £26 billion you insist on using, that’s about as accurate as the Truss £30 billion figure. Neither should be used. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Garbage Because 80 per cent don't speak Welsh , that does not make them demons neither do they particularly want Welsh to die out It won't because it can't because 20 per cent will ensure it doesn't What do you think young folk on Anglesey want Speak Welsh or have a job They will speak Welsh as they do anywamore English scum moving there to work will change nowt What is the matter with you all | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Out of genuine interest, are there any other countries where a second language is compulsory in schools because it is dying and the government wants to save it? In places where it's normal, could it be that it is used by a large enough group of people that it won't die out? Indeed Welsh would not die out if it wasn't compulsory because enough people speak it in parts of Wales that ensure it will survive. It's not and never has been about the langauge versus the NHS, that is just the usual fakery from you, it's about spending the money where it is needed the most. I really do wonder, if we had a referenda on this, and why not include other things like the 20mph, the M4 relief etc, what would the people of Wales vote for? | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Does it assume that? What if the 80% think like me, that those who want to use Welsh or learn Welsh are free to do so but that more of the money spent on Welsh promotion could be better used elsewhere? As any teacher can tell you, be it anywhere in the Uk, schools need more money and so does pretty much every public service with some on the verge of collapse and facing big cuts. I will always argue that preserving life and the quality of life is more important than a language. If something isn't strong enough to survive on its own merits then let it die out naturally. Welsh won't die though, it has its strongholds. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Large swathes of, for example, London contain areas where very little English is spoken, Road signs are multi lingual with notices in hospitals,Police Stations, Post Offices etc written in up to half a dozen languages. Over a million people there don’t speak English, I suspect it is a similar situation in areas of Manchester,Birmingham, Leicester and Bradford. Just because 600,000 people speak Welsh in Wales, a language that has been spoken here for many centuries, there is outcry on here. So it costs a few quid to promote the language, it’s worth every penny. | ![](/images/avatars/9937.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
