STOP AND STAMP OUT OUT RETRO REDICULOUS WELSH REPUBLICANISM NOW. It Is The Biggest Of Threats To REVIVAL OF ANY REAL RADICAL REPUBLICANISM FULL STOP!

.
Cymru 1400 is back, see link:
.
.
.Less than a month after 'Adam's Abergele' and his attempt to legitimise his brand of Retro Republianism, learnt at the knee no doubt of Denis Coslett, former FWA Commandant, patriot and poet. Although at Abergele had bussed in a load of 57 verities of 'Celtic Republicanism', that speaks much as to what level of political idea there is there with A&P. Basically no more than what many of the 'Patriotic Fringe' use as a label to kind of position themselves as at best 'Radical Nationalists', their ''Republicanism'' goes as far back as having learnt about the Irish Easter Rising 1916 much promoted as the basis for the 'Retro Republicanism' of the former FWA Commandants Cayo and Coslet. Although given his working class background Denis Coslett was certainly more politically aware and to the left a little, if only he had got a 'Politcal Act' together, then I guess post '69 Denis could have made more positive Patriotic contribution to 'Alternative Nationalism'.
.
But no! at best post '69 he could not leave go of his 'Sixties', he was very much a 'Victim of the Sixties; he did became a good patriotic poet but then continued a 'Paradory of Patriotism' annually handing out medals at Rali Cilmeri and 'repeating his speech' from the dock at conclusion of the FWA Trial in July 1969. The laugh of that was Cosletts theatrical gesture had a prologue, shotly before he had signed the infamous, to me anyway the 'Swansea Court House Surrender' along with his Commandant in Chief Julian 'Cayo' Evans. I did not but unfortunatly my PF compatriot Toni Lewis did, I cannot remember who amongst the others did, I think it was a case sadly of 'one and all'. As for Cayo's ''Republicanism'' basically a mixture of 'Spanish Fascism' and 'Polish Nationalism' overlayed with a dash of 'Irish Republicanism' of the 'Remember 1916' kind! However, a good and considerate patriot to his 'Comrades in Arms'. I want hear any critcism of he nor now Coslett who I came to know and respect much post'69. Unless the criticism is from me an 'Old Comrade' up to a point, keeping in mind the PF quit supporting the FWA, for reasons made public then and now in my AWNM&S Archive blog, see further down in this post.
.
Whatever, great patriots all the same but unfortunatly in main of the 'Knee Jerking Super Patriot' School, niether they two or their, 40 odd years later 'followers of fashion' attempting to stand rather wobbly on the 'Shoulders of their Giants' have the slightest clue about any form of real 'Republicanism', I doubt if they have ever even read Cliff Bere's book 'Young Republicans', if they had they would learn that Cliff's first Welsh Republican Movement was based on forging itself as a Radical Republican Movement Against English Imperialism, not least against the English Crown and it's claim to having Sovereignty over Wales.
.
It was largelly due a response to 'Adam's Abergele' that I set up the RAM - REPUBLICANS AGAINST MONARCHY blog, for those of serious Welsh Republican Intent but also speciffically with purpose to reeducate the patriotically confused and politically challenged 'Retro Republicans'. Further, the RAM five year Welsh Republican Programme of Patriotic Action Against the English Monarchy in Wales, is both a challenge to the 'Retros' and the moderate 'Guardianesque' School's Welsh Republican Followers amongst the 'Chattering Classes'. To go out there and get into some serious real Welsh Republican Action over the coming five years. However, I particularly challenge the 'Retros' c'mon guys and gals, lets see what you are really about, up to? Lets see if you got what it takes? Got the makings? Time to put up or shut up and you are on warning! I am going to make it my business to keep an eye on you all out there in your Patriotic Fringe, get out now before it becomes a 'Lunitic Fringe' as it will if you become a follower of 'MOZ' and his 'Cream Cracker' CYMRU 1400.
.
YOU WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH FAKING IT OVER THE NEXT FIVE YEARS, so I earnestly suggest you really make some 'Patriotic life changing political decisions' as going down the path of some serious Welsh Republicanism via this blog; THE WELSH PATRIOT.or go Adfywiad Gwladgarol, if not as 'Barrio Warriors', then as like the Scottish Society CRANN TARA commit to 'Cymric Consciousness Campaigning' against CADW - Conquest And Defeat Wales:

If that is a bit too radical for you there is always Urdd Brenhinol Cymru (see link below)

If of course you really want to get radical, come with me to the left via
'Red Remembrancer' and 'Adfywiad Goch', links further on. But whatever
make it real and make it useful and positive patriotic contribution not a load
of 'Nashy Nonsense' or bloody 'Facebook Fusilier Key Board Heroism'.
.
Whatever, to continue: I don't mean parading about at the non - secular annual 'Dydd Dewi Day' parade in Caerdydd in support of right wing nationalist 'Cambrianistas' or, doing what you often do in supporting 'Crachach' dominated reactionary 'Cultural Nationalism'. No! rather get out there and do what radical Irish Republicanism does very well, that is constantly challenge the English Crown. See Below:

I hope our 'Retro Republicans' will learn something from above, I do not expect you to risk getting 'Brolly Bashed' by the 'Grey Haired Old Ladies' but maybe some Agit - Prop Anti - English Royalty Poster and Balck Flag Flying Campaigns in response to vists to Wales by representatives of the English Royal Family. I have no problem about 'speaking from on high' has I have been there and bought the T-Shirt, not once but twice, maybe thrice. So 'C'mon 'Retro Republican' posuers, lets see what you are really made of?
.
I hope Sinn Fein and other serious Irish Republican Organisations become aware of what I am saying, I will make sure they do! Has it would be absolutly grotesque to see this 'Bunch of Boyos' representing any real Welsh Republicanism 'officially' in your 1916 - 2016 Commemorations. Before inviting these 'Gowboys', stand back and watch and remember their proof will be in their 'Retro' or 'real radical' Welsh Republican Pudding! So lets see if the 'Retros' present 'Palltry Pudding' can be made into a far better one and to start with fellas you have to get the reciep correct. I suggest for starters that instead of looking for one you take an annual trip to Abergwuan and Garreg Wasted searching for some political reality in your patriotic lives which you will not find at Rali Cilmeri.
.
Might as well leave all that 'medievalism' to Tourism as I am doing, indeed don't mess with your 'Retro Revivalism', do yourselves a favour, if you cannot deal with a 'Republican Reality' or face up to the serious radical Welsh Republican Action. Then get into the huge Cadw Grant handout before English Tourism businesses and the 'Usual Cultural Crachach Suspects' do, see below link:

My love affair with 'Welsh Medievalism' is coming to an end, something that began with my own 'Zardoz Momement' in School, then post '69 believing that what became Cofiwn - 'Cymric Consciousness Campaigning' was a good practical patriotic and useful road to follow for a long term political end purpose. In recent years re worked and presented a a more politically radical 'Cymric Consciosness Campaign' in shape and form of Adfywaiad Gwladgaro Cymru:

Cofiwn achieved a great deal but unfortunatly AGC has reached it's 'Use By Date' as Wales and World circumstances detirmine that I make my own political decisions as to where I must now stand and it's to the 'Radical left' and beyond even by 'Red Remembrancer' and more embracing and promoting of an 'Adfywiad Goch Cymru', see links:

However, I still consider that this blog has a sound political purpose of attempting to politicaly educate Radical Nationalists to embark on, at least, those of a 'Welsh Republican Persuasion' journey towards a 'Republican Reality'. Beginning with the below, which hopefully that will begin to offer you some serious politcal patriotic Republicanism which you will not find at the annual Rali Cilmeri or in 'Dewi Day' Parading and not at 'Adam's Abergele' either, see links below:

If 'Retros' do this journey of Welsh Republican 'Self Discovery' and are none the wiser, may I suggest that like 'Lemmings' you just walk over the edge of the cliff at Garreg Wasted, I sadly feel that is the best contribution you can make to any serious Welsh Republican Cause and Campaign. As for all others be they Welsh Nationalists, Republicans or Socialists we now have more import priority things to do as 'STEPPING BACK INTO OUR HISTORY', see link:

.I too often forget the good Welsh Republican effort of Neil ap Siencyn and Gareth ap Sion, I have offered space in this blog for Gareth to write up a contribution on all this, but no sign of him doing so. A great shame as his and Neil's Republican Movement and Republican paper are going to be lost to history if they do not record it now. As for the Welsh Socialist Republican Movement, another worthy Welsh Republican Effort and fortunatly their history has been recorded.
