RALI CILMERI 2011: IT's THAT TIME OF YEAR WHEN THE 'WHITE EAGLE WARRIORS' PREPARE TO PREEN THEMSELVES AROUND A ROCK OF DESPAIR!


Rali Cilmeri has rather lost the plot, it has become no more that an annual platform for Posuers, Opportnunists and Dilettants. That does not mean a number of Patriots who attend are good for nothing, a few do much patriotic work and more than most not least the 'Has Beens' aka 'Good Ole Boys'. You cannot fail to know who they are and just ask them what they have been doing since Rali Cilmeri 2009, very little if the truth be known! Whatever, I had no intention of going to Rali Cilmeri ever again but I had intended to get to Prysgduon to make an Adfywiad Agit - Prop Patriotic Point. However, this is not to be this year, it's just not on this Saturday so will have to make the patriotic point next year. So see below photo of my new banner, continuing to be creative in the way of our former patriotic master flag maker Toni Lewis RIP, in fact the White Eagle adorning the pole was a gift from Toni to myself.



I have started to make a new Adfywiad Eagle Flag but it's far from finnished and thus I have had to complete it's foto in Photo Shop.


Original Flag Colours by Meic Stephens Literati, Eagle on Sun my idea.
An Older Adfywiad Gwladgarol Eagle Version.
 Hopefully, I will have the new flag ready for rising up at Maenserth next year, another must go see historic site must as well as Prysg Duon.

Basques Don't mess about, next time the English Royals visits Caernarfon Castle why not prepare a Baner of similar size and purpose as the Basque one below. Then when the English Royals stand on the Balcony to receive homage of the 'Taffy Loyalists' they are more likly to see and hopefully get the message GO HOME ENGLISH ROYALS YOUR NOT WANTED IN WALES OK!


After Thought, a comment on the times:





Yes, mistake above meant Cofia 1282 - 1982.

COFIWN GOCH - GWYNEDD GOCH: Land And Liberty! POPULAR WELSH RESISTANCE AND THE STRUGGLE AGAINST ENCLOSURE OF LAND IN WELSH HISTORY. This Post Is In Support Of The 'No Cuts' Demonstration In Caernarfon 04 - 12 - 2010. C.O.R.N Riot Continues The Struggle! No Cuts and No Carve Up Of Wales!


Think of Gwynedd and most Welsh Patriots will think of Welsh Princes and Wars of Independance but there is another history we ignore at our patriotic peril! Particularly at present as personally I am more and more of the oppinion that in these times it is the Peoples History of Struggle against Tyrrany and oppression that speaks more to us than the struggles of Medieval Princes who more often as not fought each other more than the Anglo - Norman Conquistadores.

So lets get to know this other history and in this instance in this blog I will focus on Gwynedd again but move on from Corn Riots of which you will find further information in blogs below:

Corn Riots often coincided with the struggle against Enclosures and the Resistance of small farmers and squatters 1793 - 1830, see book Before Rebecca by David Jones. However, note that there were enclosure disturbences going back to Tudor Times and Corn Riots were known to have taken place during the 18th Century in many parts of Wales. Though the years between 1793 - 1830 was the period of major popular Protests, Resistance and Riot bordering very much on open revolt but unlike Ireland never becoming an armed Rebellion for that Wales would have to wait untill 1831 and 1839.

In this post I will focus on Gwynedd which was as much to the fore in Peoples struggle as other parts of Wales, time we remembered that not least this coming Saturday in Caernarfon for which I suggest those attending make the following placard, the more the merrier as then it will really make a big point or two! Boom! Boom! Get it? You will once you see the below. See Pics below, too snowy and cold to go outside and take a photo, you will just have to make do with indoor shots. Details: I used a box some book shelves were packaged in, about 3' x 1', this made it possible for me to illustrate on both sides. I am also affixing thru the box a fishing rod which can be pulled out (note clip at top to keep in place). When put together and held up high, it will be seen for sure and if a load of them make great visual Agit - Prop Impact. Go to it, of course if as a child you watched Blue Peter all this will come easy to you. Y Urdd should produce a Mr Urdd Gonk holding a Red Pitch Fork? that gives me an idea, I will make my own Mr C.O.R.N Rebel Gonk. Coming your way soon!

THANKS GIVING DAY! BUT FOR NATIVE AMERICANS IT's A NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING as 11 December 1282 Is A Welsh Patriots Day of National Mourning To Remind Welsh People Of Our Country's Conquest and Colonisation. REMEMBER TO WEAR AN IVY LEAF ON THE 11th DECEMBER ANNUALLY and that night light a Candle For Freedom for loss of Welsh Independance.



The last bit was very much the 'Old Gethin' speaking, my reality now is as far as Welsh Princes 1294 can be a 'Year Zero' after that medieval wise I will in main retain my medieval sympathy and support for  Owain Glyndwr's National War of Liberation (note ref to Llywelyn ap Gruffydd Fychan in Executed Today - Martyrs Link below) . For this war put an end to serfdom, bondage and to a greater degree unconditional Tennant Labour, this war destroyed English Castle Rule greatly and, Socio - Economic dominance of the Colonial Royal Boroughs. That began a process where it was impossible to sustain  Punitive Penal laws and English Settler and trader Privilages. In so many words the Welsh Patriots might have lost the war but in many ways they won the peace, so that's not so bad plus lets not forget Glyndwr's Peasant Army the 'Barefoot Welsh Doggies'. Not least then the 'Gwerin Owain', first in line of Welsh Popular Protest 'movements' and struggles. However, lets now in these coming Socio - Economic harsh times remember the Heroes and Heroines of Peoples Protest and Struggle from the medieval instances given above down to much later times as of the Corn Riots and Enclosure Struggles, not least such in the ancient land of the Welsh Princes of Gwynedd, maybe a Gwynedd Goch?.

Moving on to USA 'Thanks Giving Day' or otherwise Native American National Day of Mourning, you will note that there were two possible 'Thanks Giving Days' for White European America to adopt as a National Celebration. Historically for they, it's the Virgina Colony day that should have figured as a 'National Favourite' but for the Civil War and there after. The problem being that of course Virginia was a Colony in what became the very Confederate State of Virginia and today the 'Old South' has very much given way to the 'New South'. So much about 'Dixie' is well out of fashion, this I will look into at another time regards fourth coming American Civil War Anniversary Commemorations on line, as much in advance as the Olympics in London. I will also deal with Wales and the Old South, very much avoided by the Welsh today who seek to be squeaky clean and have no dirt or blood on their hands re participating in genocide of Native Americans and Slavery of Africans in America.
