WRM I realised that to advance one needed to be involved in protests, not just pose,posture and parade about achieving very little other than advance of a pathetic patriotism serving nought but self interest, ego and fantasy foolishness - Any Advance?

The Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry was instituted by George V in 1933 at the suggestion of the then poet laureate, John Masefield. What suprized me is R.S. Thomas accepting this honour from the English Crown. Is there not one Welsh Poet that can say no as Benjamin Zephaniah did:

I am also reminded that John Lennon refused an honour too, good on him. On the strength of that and the cowardice of our Welsh Cultural Elite to do like wise, I say why not scrap the Welsh National Anthem and in it's place adopt John Lennon's Imagine, why not? In particular the words are possibly best suited for our pacifist but far from radical poets, I do not needs be mean that as a slurr on the song or pacifists as I would not oppose all nations adopting it has a national anthem but of course in their own languages. Wales should go first as it is obvious most Welsh
People, not least poets are far from being ready to wield any weapon in defence of Wales etc! etc! etc! The words of our national anthem mean little in the mouths of the majority of our people, do they? Then there's those New Years Honours:

HOW's ABOUT SEEING WHO OF A REPUBLICAN PATRIOTIC MIND CAN ORGANISE THE BIGGEST AND BEST REGIONAL OR COMMUNITY ANTI - ENGLISH ROYAL WEDDING EVENT IN WALES. NOT IRELAND! Maybe, at very least in Llanelli, Merthyr, Newport, Llandovery, Aberystwyth, Blaenau Festiniog, Wrecsam or where ever?
Now where else would I see this other than in Cambria Magazine but I have Googled up web Info addresses and nothing has come up? Whatever, true patriots will of course boycott this load of Bullshit! to instead stay in Wales on the Frontline of Welsh Republican Resistance to the English Royal Wedding, yes! Of course you will not want to go down in history as amongst the timid taffs doing a Welsh Rabbit Run to Ireland as a few did in 1969, will you? Just think about it now, not that I hold out much hope with Welsh Nats, most these days are 'wets' or 'wankers'. You know the sort who toddle up to Rali Cilmeri once a year and then toddle down to Caerdydd on 1st March wearing 'Dewi Diddy Hats' respelendent with Crosses of St David and loads of leeks of course. In fact H.J.Davies and Cambria Magazine was to the fore in this, now a Tourist Week for Cardiff Council and most unfortunatly 'Renegade Republicans' to the fore in assisting in the ambitions of the Knights of St David. Somehow, if this Celtfest in Dublin on the 29 April is in anyway connected with the Rugby Celtfest in Cardiff last year, I would not be suprised to find out if the 'Cambrianista Crowd' are somewhere involved in the Dublin Celtfest and will be attending to the fore?

Whatever, as with the Cambria Magazine Dydd Dewi Sant, this Dublin Celt Fest is again another distraction and diversion from some real Welsh Nationalist Struggle but then, there is no struggle is there? What one may percieve as Nationalist as Plaid Cymru and some of it's members is for the most part a Cultural Business/Nationalist Front largelly serving the interests of the Welsh Language Industry and associated members of an elitist establishment and Intelligencia. There are some 'left wing' hangers on who feel they can better advance their political careers via Plaid Cymru rather than the Labour Party but they are usually tainted with a petite bourgeoisie culturalist pacifism. As for Alternative Welsh Nationalism that no longer exists other in the form of a dead zone of 'Sixties Zombies' and 'Facebook Fantasists'. All of whom are the sort along with for the most part pretty well heeled teachers and those of a folksy sort who love playing at being 'Republican' away from home but otherwise stay well out of trouble at home. The sort big on the Dubliners and Wolf Tones, the music not the Revolt of 1798, that is no not for them. Can find nothing about the aforementioned Celtfest in Dublin but if you really want a Great Escape, I mean really make a Great Escape, why not do the Celt Fest Cuba trip, possibly cheaper than a 'Drip Trip' to Dublin.

I do not think anything I might say will change the mind of this crew but then the Great Escape Celtfest for 29 April is not really aimed at this 'shifty sort' but more so those with at least radical pretentions and so this Celtfest is pitched as the Great Escape Guranteed 'Royal Wedding - Free' Weekend in the Republic of Ireland. Somehow, I think not so free of the Royal Wedding, not in Dublin. The Ireland of today that watches Coronation Street loves Royal Weddings as much as do Americans, so it will be everywhere even in Ireland and not least Dublin. I myself when this Royal Wedding was announced thought why not promote a mass Republican/Nationalist exodus to Ireland to visit the National 1798 Centre but then thought no! Keep that to visit in February in association with the 22 February 1796 Commemoration as it allows for good comparative study, not least as to why Wales in 1797 did not have a revolt but Ireland did in 1798? Quite simply because basically Wales then was full of politically 'Nationalist' challenged as those of Plaid and Plant Crachach were in 1969 and still are today.

Seriously, I will tell you why, it's simple really the Irish did not get bogged down by a Brit Protestant Reformation and Cultural Nationalism, not least Irish Cultural Nationalists were hard case Political Republicans. Further, Irish Republicanism is for real not what as become a joke of 'Garibaldians' at their annual Cilmeri piss up! Not least the Irish have been persistantly active anti - English Royality not least in organising protests and Demonstrations against the English Crown in their Country. Not organising to escape confrontation and organising Republican Resistence to the English Crown, unfortunatly many Welsh Patriots who style themselves as 'Republicans' see no further than just another piss up! The amazing thing is that this Great Escape is being touted as some kind of Nationalist Response but it's on the whole a money making capitalist venture to the profit of who? For sure not in the interest of Welsh Patriotic struggle, in fact this so called Great Escape is in fact organising a Great Escape for the Anglo - Welsh Royalists in Wales. For the so called Great Escape to me, other than a money making venture on back of Patriotism seeks to get those who may be Anti - Royal Wedding 'Trouble Makers' out of the way for a while. So boycott the Dublin Celtfest Great Escape and instead do something that makes a stand, an act of Welsh Resistence against the English Crown in Wales not Ireland.
Now think about it? For starters this Great Escape will cost you individually £249 that's just for starters as three days in Dublin add a couple more £100, yes? So why are Welsh Patriots putting good money into a failing 'Tiger Ratted' economy when our own Welsh decling 'Dragon Ratted' economy could do with that kind of money? On the 29th April really you should be considering organising Nationalist/Republican events, more worthy of spending that £249 plus money on here in Wales. As example, why not organise Nationalist/Republican outings to Welsh Historic Sites for family and others in your local community who also want to avoid the Royal Wedding. In 1977 Cofiwn organised outing to Mynydd Bach, WSRM a Soicialist Fest in Pontypridd and Cayo and Co an event at Glandenys. So far in Ysbryd Cofiwn I will be pulling off an history protest patriotic pass time, I have no doubt that Welsh Socialists are and will be quite capable of organising Socialist Peoples Parties in the Park (* see at end) also there will be a 'Rebels Rally' at the Cilmeri Centotaph, at least the idea is muted on the grapevine. So, there is plenty you can do in Wales that will be Patriotically positive and make a Patriotic Point other than fill bellies with what fools believe are Patriotic Pints.

The Anglo - Welsh Royalists are pushing for Street Parties all over Wales, what we do not do is surrender our country to this Brit Propaganda Machine but rather fight back with your own Republican/Nationalist/Socialist Republican Campaigns and Peoples Parties in the Park. This could be existing parks particularly those designated in name of Owain Glyndwr or alternativelly occupy 'unwanted' land in the community and for the day make it a 'Peoples Park. Now focus in particular on land being targeted by the Anglo - Welsh Royalists to make Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Parks, get in first ok! Thus all those with £249 plus spare to waste on this Great Escape nonsense, why not donate the money to a local Anti - Royal Wedding Community Campaign through out April, organising history trips in Wales or donating to a local Peoples Park. Naming the park after a local Welsh Nationalist, Republican or Socialist hero.

As for the Anti - Wedding Campaign otherwise, well you cannot go around disrupting Street Parties but you can spend the day running around in cars flying Welsh Republican and Black Flags. However, long before then make sure your local area is covered with Welsh Republican Anti - Wedding Posters and Stickers funded perhaps by some £249 patriotic donations. Get busy!!! This Agit Prop Work needs to be planned in Jan, prepared in Feb, organised in March and carried out in April massivelly all over Wales. Do not fail, the Welsh Fight back starts here and it will be in this we may possibly see a new Welsh Republican Movement and Struggle arise, here in Wales in Patriotic Action not gagging on Guiness in Dublin. Save that for the 100th Anniversary of the Easter Rising in 2016, much bigger events are being organised for that all over Ireland. Well worth a weeks holiday then!
