I DON’T like the Tories or their austerity policies. But I still don’t see why it’s so vitally important to protect S4C from cuts.

I think the UK has a population of about 64 million.

Only three million live in Wales. And apparently only about 20% of those 3m speak Welsh. S4C is an obscure channel and hardly anyone watches a lot of its programme. So surely there are more important things to worry about.
