Talybont councillor ,Liam Fitzpatrick , after an impassioned speech in front of the Cabinet today regretfully announces that the cabinet voted against keeping the Welsh stream at Brecon High School .
"This is a great shame for the cabinet , for Brecon and many of my residents children who go to Brecon and study in the medium of welsh . There is an outstanding opportunity with the new build coming in 2019 to invest in welsh education for the future . It is ridiculous that in the capital town of Brecknockshire , the Capital town of the Brecon Beacons National Park that a 32- 8 indicative vote last week was over ruled and they decided to close the stream . This is now without doubt an election issue for the forthcoming months " More stories
