The Bottom Line is as far as Rhydian is concerned, he's entitled to what he thinks about Nationalism, I would not be all that far away from that position myself and if he reads this and my Adfywiad Goch blog he will see that. But what he had to say about the FWA and 'Poison Ideology' and not least the 'White Eagle Cross' is what I would expect out of the mouth of an English Government and Imperialism. This can often be the trouble with 'Established Left thinking', not least 'Our Anglo Cambro Left' in Wales they can be bloody so 'Brit' and boorish and so 'Usual Suspect'. If they were in Ireland, Scotland, Brittany, Catalonia and Euskadi I have no doubt they would be crawling all over their National Struggles but it's just beyond their 'Brit Internationalist' thinking to have the guts or gumption to work for a true National 'Welsh Left' as the 'Catalan Left' but rather fakes something up that appears a little 'Welsh' but is just a 'Regional' South Wales Radical Left. Interestingly the first Communist representation in Wales was a 'South Wales and West Country Party', you will see where I am getting 'Anglo - Cambro Left' from. Of course pandering to yet one more 'minority' in Wales 'Plant Crachach' aka Cymdeithas yr Iaith Cymraeg, no doubt because of their CND connections. That is of course the 'Cymraeg' speaking minority, in doing so this 'Radical South Wales' left is also quite willing to get into bed with 'Y Crcachach Newydd', not least when your all so passivelly pathetic in knee jerking yoursels as 'Proffessional Pacifists' off to march against this war or that war but then would be quite willing to motivate Workers to go off to fight against Fascism and die for Stalins Hammer and Sickle'. There is nothing much more that shows up the 'Anglo - Cambro' Radical Wales left than it's total failiure to get to grips and fight against 'Turbine Terrorism' and the Windmills of Mass Destruction accross our land by Global International Capitalist Windmill Master - Robber Barons as the Duke of Somerset upon Mynydd y Gwair. I cannot wait to see where the 'Wales/Welsh Left' will be when the time comes to really fight back. Under the Red Pitchfork behind the barricades stopping Turbines or perhaps on another bus to London to pathetically parade 'Welsh Harmless Discontent' around Westminster. However, Welsh Cultural Nationalists and camp following 'Crach Fodder' will more than likly be parading about for 'ShamelessS4C' or against 'Afordable Housing'. I am at the point of saying 'curse on both your houses' both pretty much rubbish and reducing Welsh Struggle right now to a barny over a flag. I certainly oppose that FWA banner but I advise Nationalists so as not to upset Llanelli's 'Red', no carrying White Eagle Flags on any 1911 Commemoration again accept that historical vent as a Welsh/Wales Workers Rebellion against International Capitalism and march behind a Welsh Starry plough Banner instead.

- Latest Llanelli Star Stuff ro the Socialists of Sospan Fach Tin Town, Rhydian first, ficking sigh! he starts off alright enough:
- Then goes into this rant about the 'White Eagle Cross'. For Christ sake Rhydian what tiny red rock did you crawl out of mush, you really are a sad case you konw to be making up stuff, I really must dispute what your saying as your pure blind invention, it's all post 1936 Spain you know. Where did you get that stuff about 'White Eagle Cross' as a Symbol of Hatred, Dominance and Division, really? It representatives no more tha an old Welsh Ledgend in heraldic short hand, hardly a 'Swastika', an ancient symbol of Good Luck untill Hitler messed all that up. I wonder why he adopted it, mystifying?

The White Eagle Cross is none of the things you are lieing about, a short time before the FWA adopted it and since it was no more no less than a Symbol of Welsh Resistance invented by the poet Harri Webb from heraldic short hand. Soon becoming popular with Nationalists has being easy to paint up on walls much like the French resistance used the Cross of Lorraine:

Though myself as I stated in previous post, I myself no longer have use for the White Eagle now that Balchder Cymru have adopted it as I have little time for these Facebook Fantasists and Playstation Patriot Soldiers. Hardly the Welsh Resistance they pose and parade as.

You will have seen via the above link that I encouraged 'Socialist Flags' and posters be used at the Llanelli 1911 Commemoration. These flags and banners, I use at all 'Wales Socialist Inititives' I advance as at Bedd Penderyn, Merthyr 1831 and this year in Edward Morgan 1835 Connection. No matter my soft spot for the 'White Eagle Cross' and 'Banner Glyndwr' both I have used for 'Nationalist 'political reasons, I would not use them at such deemed to be 'Socialist' for common sense reasons as much as anything else. So what the two so called ''FWA Members'' were up to, I suggest you clarify with 'Balchder Cymru' especially if these 'associates' were ones using 'Racist Remarks' which concerns me more than 'Whte Eagle Cross Flags'. As for Cayo having more in common with European Fascism. I will not denie Cayo's fondness for Franco but more as a 'Ultra Nationalist', than a 'Falangist'. Cayo had another reason to be attached to the 'White Eagle', due to himself being taught by a Polish Nationalists at Millfield. As you may not be aware the Poles are very attached to the 'White Eagle' in a number of ways:

You may not see any White Eagles being used in the 'Arab Spring' but in Poland in the last 200 years you would have seen 1000's. Have you not a White Eagle Polish Club in Llanelli where you can go and learn some songs about White Eagles? Not needs me stirr the shite further but Rhydian you would have been on safer ground regards having a rant about the 'Fascism' and the 'Thirties', if you had gone on a lob about 'Celtic Triskels' and Breton Fascism and Ultra Catholic Welsh Cultural Nationalism:

So Rhydian get it? lay off the White Eagle mun! have a go at Celtic Triskels and Celtic Crosses, they are banned in Germany due to associations with extreme ultra right. I believe born of an adoption by the O.A.S during the Algerian Struggle but than near enough a 1000 year association with Celtic Christianty:

I again state clear, there is no FWA in existence apart from my personal Renactment Society, no I joke! just love to wind up the 'Welsh Establishment' out to kick the FWA/PF and Militant Struggle against Investiture an MAC Sabotage Campaign of the 'Sixties' Welsh Resistance into shadows. As the Crachach have done to Lewis Lewis, John Rees, Edward Morgan also Dai Cantwr, Sioni Sgubor and Frances Evans to name but a few Welsh radicals. as Cayo and Coslett whose faces do not fit!

As Tim Evans piece in the Llanelli Star, I cannot really disagree, his take is my take too, we could dress it up as the most simplest version of events as a nationalist explanation but that would not be truth or reality. In 1911 workers throughout Britain was taking on a 'British Establishment' and Welsh Workers were invoved in that struggle whilst our 'Crachach' cultural nationalists were grovelling away up in Caernarfon at an Investiture in 1911. To conclude, what we lack in Wales is a sound Socialist version of Welsh History as a James Connolly and James Maclean would have seen it in their Celtic Nations. As for 'Class' and/or 'Nationality' we ourselves as individuals decide, myself I feel I am 'Welsh', I am 'Acculturalised' but not 'Anglicised' as much as I might prefer to be Irish, I remain 'Welsh but I am also at one with the 'Wretched of the Earth', one of the ', Brothers/Sisters of the Ox', the 'Working Class' and that is by background and lifes realities and where my political loyalties would be not as Crach Fodder or a camp follower of Plaid Cymru Cultural Nationalism. Of my Nationalism it is that that travels the road by side of which the wind shakes the barley.
I will thus leave it to Balchder Cymru or Jac o'North or other nationalists to seek from the Llanelli Star the right to reply to Tim Evans, I do not think myself fully up to that in retrospect as to where I was 'politically' in the 'Sixties' to where I am today. Other than with Rhydian who his being just plainn'Bolshie' and personal be he realist it or not, he's touching a raw nerve as far as I am concerned. I after all, no matter what I must be loyal to 'Old Comrades', not least those who are now dead and cannot speak for themselves, seven RIP of the nine of us who stood on trial at Swansea Crown Court during the summer of '69.
