A CAMPAIGN group in Wales has dumped an old caravan near the Welsh government’s offices in Carmarthen daubed with the words “Hawl i Gartref” — Right to a Home — in protest against the country’s housing crisis.
Cymdeithas yr Iaith campaign group fights for the rights of Welsh people including in defence of the Welsh language.
It says the caravan protest is a response to the Welsh government’s White Paper on Adequate Housing, Fair Rents and Affordability, published today.
