THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN But In Southampton? Read On...

.
Does not surprise me really, but interesting yes! that an Exhibition is going on in Southampton under name of 'Hidden History', in which the FWA have a place. The recent Welsh Media nod in direction of the 40th Anniversary of the 1969 Investiture made sure very little ref was made regards FWA or Patriotic Front chief Patriotic protagonists against the Investiture. Nor was much mention made of the long and costly trial of that year aimed at crushing Anti - Investiture Adfywiad Gwladgarol, instead 'Y Crachach Newydd' were far keener on commemorating their gallant and heroic stand at Yr Urdd Eisteddfod in 1969. To this end they organised an evening of poetry, wine and canapes at the National Library of Wales, where the fotos used in the Southampton Exhibition came from.
.
But no, the NLW did not think of a similar exhibition themselves, I wonder why? no I don't! I bloody well know why they didn't, the reason is spelt G.U.T.L.E.S.S! Would I ever again consider fighting for a Wales with these ''Petite Bourgeoisie Bastards'' gaining anything from the struggle of working people, as represented by FWA Volunteers, no way! I am more of a mind to fight against such as these. In hindsight, the FWA/PF got it wrong, we should have been more the Citizen Army of James Connolly, than as the Irish Voluteers of Padrig Pearse.

.
The organiser of the exhibition hopes it will come to Wales, am doubtful if it will? But maybe, in respect to fact that it is the 15th Anniversary of the death of 'Commandant Cayo' next year 1995 - 2010, I am half of the mind to organise an exhibition myself, possibly in Lampeter?

Will keep you informed, if this idea gets legs ok! stay posted.

1969: HOW DID THE WELSH MEDIA REMEMBER AND REPORT THE 40th ANNIVERSARY OF ADFYWIAD'69 aka Investiture Year.

..
At Least as the Western Mail sees it, and as with most other media, inc Radio & TV this of course unsympathetic bunch of Lickspittals could not be expected to put a Patriot view forward. But it was kind of interesting to see them give so much attention to MAC's bombing campaign but very little mention to the PF/FWA Anti - Investiture Conspiracy Trial or indeed the Anti - Investiture popular protesting and Patriotic public demonstrations organised by the Anti - Investiture Campaign Committee, Militant Plaid Youth and CIG Anti - Investiture Activists, and why was that? Quite simply because the Welsh media is in cahoots with the Establishment to promote another Investiture in Caernarfon, and to this end I think they were trying to prove the point, that only an extremist few aka ''Mad Bombers'' were protesting against an English Prince, but that's not quite the truth or the complete picture. Keep posted to this blog, and you will get the full story.
