Welsh Cousins' Plight in Patagonia

REPORT f.a.o. all WELSH NEWS media:-

This week The Chubut Daily Jornada carried a story about a letter sent by Welsh Argentine Institutions to the British Ambassador in Buenos Aires (the ambassador, Shan Morgan, is a Welsh-speaker whose family come from Ceredigion!).
It concerns the Border Agency's refusal to allow two girls from Patagonia entry into the UK to improve their Welsh-language skills..
Perhaps if our people and politicians know that it's hot news out there they may do something over here to resolve the issue!
A (bad) translation is available.
