DISCRIMINATION

[Groupie]

Why is it when it comes to buying tickets and getting served at the bars etc are the Welsh always discriminated against?

[Clareno7]

Ummmm.....am I? Never noticed it...really?

[oss]

Example please

[KaleidoscopeEyes]

Err... Because they're Welsh?

No, I'm joking. That's a ridiculous claim, why would you even say that?

[Kyelo]

?.......thats horrific....they are meant to discriminate against the scottish as well....I will complain! :angry:

[chris northwest]

i think its purely down to the fact that they shag sheep, wear daffodils on st davids day, talk funny, shoot rabbits, get free presciption's and dont pay for hospital parking! it's more than likely not personal though! so i would'nt let it get to you.

Its because you welsh people love to take your flags everywhere

[grumpyhack]

A silly assertion. I'm not strictly speaking Welsh, though I've lived over half my life in Wales and cheer for Wales when they play England. I've never encountered discrimination against the Welsh at Glasto and I don't know on what basis you make such a claim. Are you sure it's not discrimination against you for some other reason?

The bar staff are for the rights of sheep?

You do know the welsh language act (the stupid stupid stupid bain of my working life welsh language act) doesn't apply outside of wales?

what a load of shite

If you knew how much public money was spent on provision to satisfy the act Vs. It's actual usage you would understand why I say it's stupid.

[p.pete]

How do said bar staff know you are Welsh before serving you?

How does ticket website know you are Welsh before you get through?

[redmosquito]

Because they all smell of piss and biscuits?

[ukslim]

it is with google translate ;-)

The act itself is well intentioned, and I agree there needs to be such a thing, but the outcomes of the current act are pretty stupid sometimes.

I help design and build websites for consultations sometimes, and the average cost of putting up two sites for the consultation, one in welsh, one in english is generally around £50k more than the standard cost, sometimes up to £100k for massive consultations.

The average number of people using the welsh language site or responding in welsh is literally zero. Even for consultations about wales.

I work for a government organisation. We have over 1000 pieces of correspondence. All of which require welsh translation, welsh branding & the system configuration to allow them to be sent out if required.

0.5% of our client base has a welsh language requirement, but the development costs are 50/50 for English & Welsh.

The spirit of the Act may well be correct. The implications of the legal implementation are ridiculous!

Calm down Taff

In England they put women on a pedestal , in Wales they put her on a flag.
