Campaigners picket Aberystwyth Post Office over lack of Welsh services

WELSH language campaigners picketed Aberystwyth Post Office at the weekend, with students leading the demonstration over its lack of Welsh services.

The action was the second picket outside branch in north Wales.

Customers had been incorrectly told that Welsh is not an official language and others were directed to nearby post offices to get services in Welsh.
