Welsh language campaigners march to demand action on the housing crisis
CAMPAIGNERS marched through the historic mid-Wales town of Machynlleth on Saturday to call for a property Act to help the housing crisis and support the Welsh language.
Hundreds of people attended the Nid yw Cymru ar Werth (Wales is not for sale) rally and march to demand the Welsh government introduce legislation on property rights.
They want to establish a legal right to a home, ensure that houses are treated as a community need rather than as financial assets and boost local ownership and community enterprises of property.
