Watched the Brighton Bomb last night. Recalled my teenage years in Maesteg when my girlfriend's dad was out on the Miner's strike. The London police Thatcher called in to attack miners: "the enemy within" she called them. Then there's the antics of special branch targetting union leaders in the NUM. Not forgetting of course, the 10 Hunger Strikers in Northern Ireland. Thatcher said there no such thing as society- except for the society of millionaire yuppies living for greed, whilst kids where homless. I worked as a volunteer in Centrepoint Night shelter, Soho. Kids came to us, within 3 days they had money to get a place to live. Thatcher ABOLISHED THIS and made them wait 2 weeks.Two weeks living on the streets of London exposed to male female prostitution to get money to eat: drugs and vice. Many of these kids (16yrs +) were gay AND RUNNING AWAY FROM HOME. One young lad said his step dad would beat "the gayness out of me". Others were under 16 and thanks only to the Childrens Society had a place of safety to access immdiately. The there's lesser things, but insulting. Like John "Spock" Redwood who paid "lip service" ( badly) to our people and the National anthem. Millionaire Alun Michael, MP for wealthy Penarth, Blair's poodle who no wants to run our police.

 Then there is the deliberate sinking of the Belgrano so the Crown could rule over Las Malvinas/Falklands and all the Welsh lads who were injured and died in this war over some rocks and Penguins so that the Butchers apron could fliy over terrority of a former glory and a dying Empire. But its ensured a political re-election for Thatcher. So watching the Brighton Bomb and the horrors of violence, saddened for those who died,  perhaps, just perhaps, I could see where the Miners, the NUM, the disenfrachised young people, and the parents of Bobby Sands and the other 9: perhaps, I can just see where they're coming from. When Thatcher dies: her legacy of greed, war, individualism, colonialism and bigotry will die do. Unless Mr Cameron, a smiling, two faced vilain, will re-erect her legacy. After all, she was invited to No.10: and Labour, under Brown, did the same. 


My new years resolution is to fight for justice, for a democratic Wales, ruled by the people of Wales. Please help me in and the others in Cymru Rydd- we cant do it alone. But together, we can rise again! Fe godwn ni eto! www.cymruryddwelshrepublicans.webs.com
