Petition Use English before (or instead of) Welsh in important public messages in Wales
The 2021 census results show that around 80% of people in Wales can not speak Welsh.
Yet important information is given only in Welsh, examples include:
Billboard public service information only in Welsh,
Variable message road signs only in Welsh,
NHS TV adverts on English TV channels in Welsh,
Welsh options first in public service phonecalls.
Prioritising the language that 80% of the country can't understand in these cases is dangerous. English should be prioritised for safety.
