Daragh Ó ConchúirGUEST
And it's possible, I think, according to the words of Tam Reine, the author of the book, that there is no guarantee of the Welsh language education system if it's not in the right hands.
Daragh Ó ConchúirGUEST
But, you know, it's possible that it's true, but She has a lot of fans.
