Cymdeithas yr Iaith has welcomed the statement by Dyfed Edwards, new leader of Plaid Group on Gwynedd County Council, that the draft plan for re-organising primary schools 'must be looked at again.'

A protest by members of Cymdeithas yr Iaith Gymraeg in Morrisons Caernarfon was held on Saturday (May 3rd, 2008). The store’s English only leaflets were presented back to the company in a large pile at the shop’s entrance. Members went on to try to take down a large English only sign from the roof inside the shop.

In face of the stunning election results today in Carmarthenshire, Cymdeithas yr Iaith have announced that they will be calling on the new County Council to immediately bin its controversial schools closure plan which could have led to the closure of 40 Welsh-medium primary schools.Cymdeithas chair in Carmarthenshire, Sioned Elin, sadi " This has been the first Council election since the Modernisin

Pickets were held outside the Salisbury Road branch of Tesco Express in Cathays, Cardiff and Tesco in Bangor. This is but one of many events being held by Cymdeithas yr Iaith (The Welsh Language Society) to underline the need for an effective New Welsh Language Act. More pickets and protests will be held during the next few weeks.
