Boots


…de Daily Post:

Welsh language protesters took to the streets in a campaign against a high street superstore.

The Welsh Language Society – Cymdeithas yr Iaith – launched its own mock version of the Boots advantage card as members protested outside the Bangor store on Saturday.

The cards said "There are no points whatsoever for using Welsh".

The Welsh Language Society is unhappy with Boots over the firm’s bilingual policy, claiming it falls well short.

Protesters also held a rally to support Osian Jones of Cymdeithas, who is facing criminal charges for painting slogans about the lack of Welsh language services provided by major high street stores in North Wales on their buildings…
