LAND and LIBERTY CAMPAIGN: Who Owns Wales? Information for Following up on to Provide a Detailed Body of Useful Knowledge.

...
''Their Lord they shall praise, Their language they shall keep, Their land they shall lose - Except wild Wales''. Not true is it! The Religion has gone! and, you are losing 'Wild Wales' very, very fast and the question that begs to be asked is, are you really doing all you can to defend and save, that 'Wild Wales?'
.
To talk of Welsh Freedom and Indpendence, to talk of Sovereignty! and of a Welsh Republic? without addressing the issue of just 'who owns our land' and how they came to own it, much of it handed down to the descendants of those who conquored and colonised our country. Otherwise much land down through the ages may now not rest with such descendants of the 'Conquistadores' but was passed back into the hands of the people of Wales for various reasons. However, how much land has been taken by the builders of Reserviors, Forestries and the military and national parks. On the whole much of our land is owned by those who work it be they farmers or small holders but how much is not and how much is being sold now to foreign commercial concens.
.
I would suggest that the A,M's of Plaid Cymru square up to their self styled status as the 'Party of Wales' and press the Welsh Assembly to set up an Investigatory Commission to look into this issue of just who owns our Nations land. The Plaid Cymru A.M who might have a great interest here is Hywel Williams, Arfon Plaid A.M. see link below:

Talk and rhetoric is a fine thing but it's the action that really counts and,
if he does not fullfll his destiny in so pushing ahead pro-activelly with what
he thinks, believes and has spoken about. Then we must look else where
and there are three options that come to mind, the first being this could be
an issue taken up by Paul Wong's 'Peoples Council' or maybe some useful
former 'Cyfamodwyr' could get together before they become 'GOB's and
establish a Patriotic Commission to investigate this matter further and in
depth. To my mind any National Movement and Struggle that fails to address
this Issue first and foremost, for the most part speaks of a Patriotic Cause
which is pretty pointless and, of a Patriotic Struggle that really is quite
meaningless to say the least!
.
As what would it serve otherwise, as it's done thus far, largelly to the
benefit of a new 'National Bourgeois', an elite and one that since 1969 as
removed the old 'Hwntw Taffia Establshment' and slowly replaced increasingly
with a 'Y Crachach Newydd', our very own 'Noveau Riche' and to my mind
and it might be yours too, if you only did some radical 'DEEP THINK' are
ENGLAND's CLIENT TRIBE IN WALES, fin! At some future time they also need
investigating too but, at moment the 'Welsh Land Issue' needs priority
Investigation. There is a fourth option as to ways of moving forward in
investigation and campaigning and, that is the ''Anglo'' - Welsh 'Left Fringe'
gets aboard but some how first they really need to pull themselves away from
their rather 'narrow' based 'tunnel visioned' so called ''Internationalism'' that
despite all the usual 'Socialist' rhetoric of 'Beyond Borders' etc does not really
'hit the spot' of certain realities, really it does'nt!
.
In England and elsewhere the 'Left Fringe' seems perfectly 'Iawn!' with
having an interest in interpreting their own history and, investigating issues
as are of concern to the country in which they were born into or have come
to live in for most part they have their eyes fixated on cause that are popular
with an 'English based Internationalism'. So are also 'fixated' action wise on
causes and struggles of importance to 'English Comrades', not least regards
holding various marches against this and that in London. Not least if it's
against a war or 'Nazis' aka these days in form of English/Welsh Defence
Leagues. Although now the Saint Athens Military Academy has given they
and the Plaid Pacifist Cultural Nationalists' to jointly get their teeth into, see links:

I can understand but not appreciate the 'Left Fringe' in Wales having no
interest in anything 'Beyond their own Borders' along with being 'urban'
focused. However, time 'Welsh Comrades' look outside Glamorgan and
Gwent. Not towards London or where ever but North towards Vyrnwy,
maybe helping to do something here re this rather pressing issue of
Land & Liberty! Whatever, at least have an outing, maybe with the family
and kids to Vyrnwy, so you at least learn to love the country side, if not the
Country? There are very good 'Left Fringe' groups in Wales as South Wales
Anarchists and Libertarian Writers as Terry Phillips:

As for 'BYD CYMRU' sadly, if you cannot get their 'Cultural Nationalist'
''activists'' to understand what's going on regards the decline and demise of
their 'Gwyliau Cymru Cymraeg'. Nor speak up on the growing threat of
'Ethnic Cleansing' by 'DEPOPULATION' in interest of a 'New Colonialism' by
cheque book conquest!. Then what hope is there for future of 'Yr Hen Iaith'
for the Vyrnwy Issue is central to the whole issue of 'Cymric Cultural Survival'
but, then their eyes for most are set on the South possibly a bit of the urban '
good life'. Nice job in the 'Welsh Language Industry' or at WAG?, even better an
home an house in the 'Pontcanna Patagonia' all along with some 'Cofia Dreweryn'
from time to time, FANTASTIC!.
.
Sadly, that old prophecy looks as if it might come true, the way things are
going, not least when the ''chief defenders'' of 'Yr Iaith' seem to have their
heads between knees and are afraid to speak out and have no idea what to
do other than save schools and pubs. The Schools is a no brainer!, not really
well thought out and I would expect that the radical 'Cultural Nationalists'
involved with Llais Gwynedd should now get to grips with some LANGUAGE,
LAND and LIBERTY! As for Cymuned and it's Pub Campaign (another no brain
er!), you too could pack that in before you find your in bed with 'Carlo' your
'English Prince of Wales':
.

.
Have you noticed how this 'Carlo' is building up his personal 'power base' and
'constituency' in rural parts, not least in rural Wales. Recently he spent a week
in Rural Cymru touring 'Hen Tiroedd Cunedda' whipping up 'peasant' support
for the Monarchy. I think this is as much about fear of rising 'Republicanism' in
England as it is about paving way in Wales for his son to be the next English
'Prince of Wales'.
.
You know there are so many issues now desperatly facing Welsh Nationalism
we need a radical political web journal asap! a blog, NOT FACE BOOK OK!
As one and all note, my political blogging days are over at Samhain come 1st
November most of my blogs are being switched off! So I can get on with my
serious archiving and wriiting of a number of publications to complete before
I die, I am pretty healthy but who knows? Whatever 2016 is a Patriotic
Retirement deadline I hope I can keep, leaving all this 40 plus years of
'Patriotic Anxt' well behind, even if I have to get some 'Hypno - Therapy'.
