At least we are part of the minority (4) allowed to use bilingual constituency names. Even this wasn't enough for some.

Born Welsh…identify as Welsh and very proud to do so. However I do not speak Welsh and cannot read Welsh. I feel discriminated against in my own country.

I’m a Welsh speaker and can’t for the life of me understand why we can’t have bilingual constituencies - Gorllewin Abertawe Gwyr and Swansea West Gower. It’s crackers.

I genuinely get angry when things like this happen and the vast majority of non Welsh speakers get walked over. Motorway signs, information signs etc in Welsh only. The cost of sending bilingual paperwork, the cost of rebranding for the new title names in Welsh just compounds the views I have on the Senedd.

Surely this flies in the face of equal language status. It has to apply to both.

How much is this going to cost? Let's be fair Swansea has never been Welsh speaking, this will be another thing forced upon us

This is not a surprise in the least. Just two years ago I was waiting ion the platform in Swansea rail station and was horrified to hear a minute long announcement in welsh followed by English. Even the car park ticket machine was defaulted to Welsh - all great for foreign visitors who probably spend years learning English only to find it doesn’t count here.

I’m genuinely dismayed at the small mindedness of the Cwmdaethas Yr Iaith mafia who are turning us into a backwater.

This is exactly what kicked off the Ukrainian conflict - overt and unfettered nationalism from a minority - for English read Russian and for Ukrainian read Welsh.
