When it was just the annual Welsh language singing and poetry festival with the occasional druid thrown in, it was OK. You could ignore it if you wanted to.

But now they are trying to make it mandatory for all living in Wales.

And that causes resentment amongst many schoolkids and adults.

There has been a large influx of Welsh speakers from the low-industry north to the south. And they get jobs invented just for Welsh speakers. Jobs where all you have to be good at it speaking Welsh. And with them they brought their flavour of Welsh which has many differences with the local one.
