Language campaigners plaster holiday homes with stickers saying Wales is not for sale

Language campaigners have plastered holiday rentals with stickers saying Wales is not for sale. Members and supporters of Cymdeithas yr Iaith have targeted summer houses in Rhosneigr on Anglesey with the posters declaring "Nid yw Cymru ar Werth" which translates as "Wales is not for sale".

The group want the council to increase the amount of council tax paid by second home owners, which has been set at a 75% premium since 2019. But councils can charge a premium of up to 300%. In nearby Gwynedd, the council has revealed plans to increase council tax to 150% - at present, second home owners in the area pay 100% extra - or double - the normal council tax rate.
