Gur math a thèid leis:
"An Englishman living on a Scottish island is refusing to complete the census unless he can do it in Welsh.
Iain Turnbull, 63, said the authorities have "threatened" him with a fine of £1,000, but he is willing to go to jail.
He has lived in Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis for seven years.
The General Register Office for Scotland said that the statutory fine of £1,000 was to anyone who refused to complete the census form."
