16 MEDI 2016 IS IT THE END OR A NEW BEGINNING?


EMBASSY GLYNDWR ANNUAL STATEMENT

 


 

2016 is the 600th Anniversary of the disappearence of Owain Glyndwr after 16 years of leading a war for national independence. Some said he had died, those of the Tudor Cambro Brit propagandists would with the 'Richmonds' to the English throne disparage our last true Prince ‘Tywysog Cymru’ to suit the Tudor desire to be kings of England and not Princes of Wales. The Tudor Propagandists for most part their Welsh Lackies would declare Glyndwr as mad for seeking to restore Welsh Independence.

 

Thus it was to be that these Tudor Historians of Welsh History as Tudor Lickspittals such as David Powell sought to paint Independent Welsh History as concluding in 1282 with the death of Llywelyn III as the last native Prince of Wales and the conquest of our country by Edward I King of  England. Making the year 1282 the big End, year zero of native Independent Hisory and that 1485 and Battle of Bosworth would be the new beginning of our country to be annexed in 1536 as a colony of England which we have continued to be to this day. (O.M.EDWARDS in 19th century would follow this 'Ich Dein'path too)



 The English Bard William Shakespeare would go even further in disparaging Glyndwr, making him out to be a man of the past believing in myth and magic whilst the English Kings Henry IV and Henry V were more men of their times (Progressive) and all the more successful for it not least Henry V with his Victory at Azincourt being promoted by Shakespeare as much a Welsh Victory as an English one. Yet much written about Azincourt and the Welsh Connection is again lies made propaganda as regards ‘Welsh Archers’, not so many as often made out. Although Henry V honoured these ‘turncoats’ by making St David’s Day occaision of a festival for Wales, now a 'Taffy' Welsh National Day Festival.

 


However it is the iconism of the ‘Three Feathers’ of the English ‘Black Prince’ and associated motto of ‘Ich Dein’ which has really enslaved the Welsh Mind to English ‘Cerebral Colonialism’ and fostered ‘Historical Amnesia’. Further. Encouraged by the 18th century Society of Ancient Britons and later Cymrodorion and by Vicorian Welsh ‘Cambrian Cultural Nationalists’ as Owen M. Edwards. Such became the foundations of the present day ‘Crachach Newydd’ establishment. Today this is all contiuously perpetuated by a treacherous so called Welsh Education system and Theatre Establishment with a Colonial Cultural Nationalism funded by England and it’s colonial puppet  Parliament in Cardiff.

 
Plaid Cymru  seen in the ‘sixties’ the uses of Owain Glyndwr as a ‘Nationalist icon’ to fire up a radical political nationalism but since as the ideals and ambitions of CyIG have been fullfilled largely to sustain ‘Y Crachach Newydd’ and make of they an ‘English Client Tribe’ also Plaid Cymru having reached the pinnicle of their hopes in a Welsh Assembly, their Nationalism has become little more then ‘Devolution Dillettantism’. Yet, there are those amongst Plaid Cymru pathetic fringe of camp followers who believe it more important to remember Llywelyn III and 1282 as much as centuries of later Cambro Brits. In our times we se that the annual Rali Cilmeri platform has removed from promoting an ‘Adfywiad Gwladgarol’ towards little more than a Pathetic Fringe aka  ‘Climeri’s Cream Crackers’ pre – Xmas booze up.

 


 Last year was set up a so called YESCYMRU to campaign for Independence, they for most part being patriots who cannot see that the fight for Independence can only be one that is associated with the campaign for Land and Liberty to liberate lands held by the English Crown and Aristocrats also carpet bagging economic ‘wind farm’ Colonisers.The reality is that Nationalists must realise the way forward towards Independence can only be via Land and Liberty struggle has we have promoted in our campaign ‘Tarian Glyndwr’.

 

Further, Nationalists must see sense in making a patriotic priority campaigns against Economic Corporate Capitalist Carpet bagging. Further, priority patriotism must focus on Anti – Cerebral Colonialism and do all posible to sweep aside Historical Amnesia. This may be achieved in a number of ways as passivelly via Cofiwn style commemorations and work as setting up memorials as advocated by the blog ‘I’R GAD Welsh Battlefield Campaign also pro – activelly in campaigns for resoration of our stolen native royal and national treasures as advocated by YMGYRCH TREFTADAETH CYMRU.



 

It is seriously time for true patriots who must of neccessity declare themselves to be radical nationalists and not cultural nationalists serving nought but ‘Y Crachach Newydd’ establishment and a Plaid Cymru that as become the party of naff nats aka ‘devolution dillettantes’ who seek personal and finnancial advancement in the neo colonial puppet parliament in  ‘Bae Caerdydd’ a Plaid Cymru seeking to be the servants still of a renewed desguised ‘Act of Union’ and whom now seek to establish a new ‘Act of Union’ with the European Union aka Fourth Reich of course under the control of a Germananic Imperislism. Is this what real true Nationalists want? If no there is but one alternative that will lead to freedom and Independence in reclaiming our Nations Sovereignty in the restoration of Senedd Glyndwr – Senedd Cenedl Cymru Rydd. To Begin with WEXIT:



 To this end patriotic pupose, here is what must be done ditch the ‘Dream of Freedom’ and the Pathetic Fringe of Plaid Cymru with it’s camp following YES CYMRU which as more to do with the foolish vanities of it’s founders. Not least wallow not in the pre Xmas gathering of ‘Cilmeri Cream Crackers’ remembering our nations defeat in 1282 as these days advanced by opportunists as ‘Petersens Pacifists’ and Balchder Cymru (aka Cambria Band) fb fantasy Island fusiliers. True Radical Nationalists must set aside such distractions and deviationism and instead declare for a struggle that seeks to see a renewal of a nationalist struggle that will seek to re-establish Senedd Glyndwr in Machynlleth. First steps towards this end purpose must be restore the annual gathering of patriots in Machynlleth on about 21 Mehefin to commemorate founding of Senedd Glyndwr and celebrate coronation of Glyndwr as Owain IV on that day in 1404.

 
21 Mehefin designated by Embassy Glyndwr as ‘Dydd Sofraniaeth’, a day more important than any other in our History. On this day and there abouts in Machynlleth you will have opportunity on Parliament Green to swear for first time or renew ‘Juratus Oweyn’ to be made ‘pobl Glyndwr’ not simply as oath of loyalty to our last Prince of Wales – ‘Tywysog Owain IV’ but as an oath to unsheath Glyndwr’s Sword symbolically as showing you hence are of the ‘Gwerin Owain’, activists in the struggle for Welsh Freedom and Independence – ‘SOVEREIGNTY’. Your first step in this direction now will be to realise Plaid Cymru has not just sold out but as totally failed and mispresents the cause of national struggle as now like wise ‘YESCYMRU’ in it’s foolish notions that will achieve nothing.


 Embassy Glyndwr since 1999 have done all possible to advance commemoration and celebration of Owain Glyndwr and his great achievement of leading a sixteen year struggle (continued to 1421 by his son Maredudd) For Welsh Independence. It is time for us to remind Patriots all we of Embassy Glyndwr have achieved with just an handfull of support and little money as we have never made appeals for cash but rather sought dedicated commitment but as often as not been back stabbed and undermined by such as Cymdeiths Owain Glyndwr and Canolfan Owain Glyndwr’ adding to the pack such asc the ‘Hawliau Hogworts’ Nevertheless we have ploughed on and brough to our cause and our National Struggle:

 

·       Baner Glyndwr

·       Coron Glyndwr.

·       Cleddyf y Genedl.

·       Dagr Glyndwr

·       Also Ardd Arwyr Glyndwr at Cefn Caer

·       Arddabganfosfa Glyndwr at Cefn Caer.

·       Commemorative Plaques at Moel y Don and Twt Hill and not least promoted Catrin Memorial in London? Before it was Hi – Jacked by Cymdethias Owain Glyndwr.Also A verity of commemorative events as in Corwen and not least Machynlleth. Plus taken stalls to events as Coity, Usk On top of this ran various promorions not least of Dydd Arwyr Glyndwr 16 Medi annually as well as 28 May Glyndwr’s Birthday.Finnaly the Campaigning of TARIAN GLYNDWR at Vyrnwy and Mydd y Bettws and Myddyd y Gwair. Also campaigning to make of the A470 Fordd Genedlathol Glyndwr and much more.


 

However, despite all this far too many patriots forget that much of the above has been advanced upon which to build a real struggle. Instead fooolishly continue to engage in pointlessness of Rali Cilmeri and in following the lazy and gutless pointlessness of the fb pathetic Patriotism of Balchder Cymru and Hawliau despite  their non Activer reality. 2016 will provide opportunity to rethink where your at and the wrong directions you have been taking and instead come over to the greatest cause and in this year of 2016 which some say is the year commemorating 1416 Glyndwr died will be the year of 2016 in which Owain Glyndwr our Mab Darogan will return in many patriots embodying this as a reality of the proposed 2016 Medi 16 Rally at Mynydd y Gwair.



Post Script: The majority of Welsh Nationalists do not fully understand the achievements of Owain Glyndwr and his followers, time they did, so let me briefyl educate an ignorence or lacking in full appreciation. First, 119 years had passed since 1282, that is 119 years of conquest and colonisation and destruction of national consciousness and identity by undermining of a 1000 years of Cymric Dynasties, theft of National treasures and replacing of Welsh Laws and traditions by the Statutes of Rhuddlan. Such not alone around the English Castles of Wales their Colonial Towns continued to grow as well surround land being stolen by leans of trickery and ethnic cleansing.


  

Hundred of Welsh men had become Mercenariess in Englands Military Machine and Continental Armies wilst others had become ‘Adar y Griem’ outlaws of the wild places, later with runaway serfs, Bondmen and Tennant would become the basis of Glyndwr’s largelly Peasant Army and later post 1416 – 1536 ‘Y Gwerin Owain’ Gurrilla Outlaws and later Social Bandits as the Red Bandits of Dinas Mawddwy. Thus to make of all this a great acheivement can only be seen as even greater achievement when one takes aboard the fact that a Nation of some 500.000 people are in 1400 going to make a big decision to take on an English population of some 3 Million with at it’s call one of Europes greatest military machines in men and equipment and organised supply system backed up by the ‘Fortress Wales’ Castles as well as many of a Welsh Gentry that had sold out. Yet a 16 – 21 year war, how did they do it when compared with so many patriots who today are far too gutless to be involved in protests or just too lazy to be involved in campaigns as for Land and Liberty against the Wind Farmers as the English Aristocrat Beaufort.

 

Thus think on all this and be mindfull of much and present day realities to come to a personal truth, you have a big decision to make remain serving Plaid Cymru Dillettant Devoilutionism and ‘Y Crachach Newydd’ Client Tribe also followers of ‘Balchder Babes’ and ‘Hawliau Hogworts’ and now YESCYMRU vain Nationalism also of late the bizzare White Eagle ‘Class and Democracy’ Maoists. Alternatively make the Big Decision and be ‘Pobl Glyndwr’ and ‘Gwerin Owain’ activists. First step, make your way to Mynydd y Gwair for and annual ‘Dydd Glyndwr’ (16 Medi 1400) gathering on 17 Medi 2016 to make our stand in defence of our land and resistence to it’s confiscation by RWE Economic Land Grabbing Colonisers to the benefit of the Duke of Somerset of the ‘Beaufort Bunch’ to stop them in their tracks to enclose our commons. Surely, if the Peasants of Mynydd Bach culd take back their land  Welsh Patriots can take back this land of Mynydd y Gwair so it  does not become ‘Beauforts Bounty’.


 

WELL? ARE WELSH PATRIOTS READY AND WILLING, HAVE THE GUTS AND DETIRMINATION FOR AN EPIC STRUGGLE AS WAGED BY GLYNDWR AND HIS FOLLOWERS AND THE PEASANTS OF THE 18th CENTURY WHO FOUGHT TO RETAIN THEIR LANDS OR WILL THEY IGNORE THE CALL TO ACTION AND SIMPLY ROLL OVER AND SURRENDER? OR STRUGGLE TOWARDS:



 

Gethin ap Gruffydd.

OWAIN GLYNDWR BIRTHDAY: LET US CONFIRM 28 MAY AN ANNUAL NATIONAL HOLIDAY.


See below, an e-mail that I received yesterday from a Deputy Clerk at the Welsh Assembly following my telephone query as to why a petition that embassy Glyndŵr had sent to the Assembly Petition Page on the Assembly's website well (over two weeks ago) had not appeared yet on the Petition's page to enable supporters of the petition to sign it. The message recieved is in Cymraeg but roughly and briefly translated it states that:

 The Welsh Assembly has not got the powers to denote public or bank holidays in Cymru, only the United Kingdom has those powers so your petition is not acceptable for consideration by the Assembly.

So, there we have it, we havent even got the basic powers to designate and promote our own symbols of sovereignty and independence in that 'hollow toothless dragon' of a building they call a Welsh Assembly in Bae Caerdydd. If we can't even have the right to promote our Independence flag with a designated Independence Day - what hope have we of ever winning independence? The powers that be in Westminster, and their lackies in Cymru, will make sure that 'Cymric Independence' never sees the light of Day UNLESS...we step out of this mentality where we have been brainwashed to believe that we must ask the London Government for permission for everything!   We can begin to act independently immediately by flying the Glyndŵr flag, our National Independence flag, whereever possible and at every opportunity. We can make our own 'independent' statement almost immediately by the 'first act' of taking our Independence flag to fly at the Independence Rally in Bae Caerdydd on April 4th and then, we can send everyone we know worldwide (including press and media) 'happy Cymric Independence Day'  greetings on May 28th along with an impressive pic of the Glyndŵr Independence flag.

Let's not turn to London, as beggars, 'cap in hand' anymore to beg for our independence as a nation, Instead, let's build up the momentum and support here in Cymru, by expressing our defiance of English rule with symbolic acts such as the flying of our independence flag.

See the message I recieved below in red, and underneath it, the 'rejected' petition.

Cyn y gallwn gynnal deiseb ar wefan y Cynulliad, mae angen inni sicrhau ei bod yn dderbyniol o dan Reolau Sefydlog y Cynulliad a thelerau ac amodau deisebau. Mae hyn yn cynnwys sicrhau nad yw'n gofyn i’r Cynulliad wneud rhywbeth nad oes ganddo'r pŵer i'w wneud. Llywodraeth y DU sy’n gyfrifol am bwerau sy'n ymwneud â dynodi gwyliau cyhoeddus a banc o dan Adran 1 ac Atodlen 1 o Ddeddf Bancio a Thrafodion Ariannol 1971. Mae hyn yn golygu nad yw eich deiseb yn dderbyniadwy i'w hystyried o dan broses ddeisebau'r Cynulliad.

Mae croeso i chi gysylltu â mi os hoffech drafod hyn ymhellach.

Dymuniadau gorau,

Kathryn Thomas
Dirprwy Glerc / Deputy Clerk
Gwasanaeth y Siambr a Phwyllgorau / Chamber and Committee Service
Petition calling for May 28th to be officially recognised as a National Day to fly the Independence flag of Cymru.
On the 26th May 1999, The Western Mail newspaper published a full front page article under the heading ‘Celebration of a Nation ‘ and in that article, much was made of the fact that the Cymric Assembly that the politicians of 1999 were campaigning for, had, in fact, been won 593 years previously when Prince Owain Glyndŵr established his Parliament in Machynlleth in June 1404. Since the appearance of the aforementioned article, the present Assembly has seen fit to make use of the said Senedd Glyndŵr, along with Cymric history as a whole, as tools to build a nation – in the hope that the present Assembly will develop into a Senedd in the unforeseen future. But, Embassy Glyndŵr believes that if this aim is to be realised, then the Assembly, and the rest of Cymru, must, once and for all, recognise and embrace the only flag that can symbolise and represent the aspirations of the Assembly for our nation. The flag in question is the one that flew over the Independent Cymru Senedd in Machynlleth in 1404, namely, the  ‘Four Lions Rampant’ flag of Prince Owain Glyndŵr and not the red dragon on the field of white and green flag of Henry Tudor, the flag of a man that could not wait to wear the English crown and ditch his Cymric roots.

Prince Owain Glyndŵr was born on May 28th 1354 so, Embassy Glyndŵr sees this date as ideal to note officially as a National Day to fly the Independence flag of Cymru – the Glyndŵr flag. Flying this, our Independence Flag all over Cymru, as well as worldwide, annually on this date would be, both, a means to celebrate the birth of our most importance of national heroes as well as a means of ‘seriously’ noting the re-birth of that new nation that is aspired for.

Embassy Glyndŵr, and all the signatories of this petition, therefore petitions the Assembly in Bae Caerdydd to recognise and act on the call for May 28th to be officially established as the National Day to fly the Independence Flag of Cymru annually.

MAY 28 DECLARED ANNUALLY 'CENEDL GLYNDWR' - CENEDL CYMRU RYDD - NATIONAL FLAG DAY.




A Call for a Cymric National Flag Day.


 

Embassy Glyndŵr has been inspired to issue this call for a Cymric National Flag Day as a result of following present day to day reports on the continuous struggle of the Kurdish people who have, against overwhelming odds, fought vigorously for their independence since the 1500’s when their lands were occupied by the Ottoman Empire.
 
The Kurds, from the onset, have recognised that if they are to win their struggle for independence that it is imperative that they maintain a strong national identity as a people, and they have also recognised that the means towards this end is to nurture and promote their own national symbols of Independence. The most visual of these symbols is their Independence flag, made up of a blazing sun centred on a red, white and green background. This is the flag that they presented to the International delegation at the Paris Peace Conference that devised a plan for Kurdish Independence as part of the Treaty of Sėrves with Ottoman Turkey in 1920, and this was the flag that was used again in 1927 when the first ‘Kurdish Government in exile’ was formed, and this was the flag that was adopted by the Republic of Kurdistan in 1946 as the official flag of the Republic and is widely flown in all sectors of Kurdistan today by various Kurdish movements and entities. We can also, of course, delight in seeing this flag in news reports, flying proudly in Kurdish lands reclaimed on a daily basis by the Peshmerga Kurdish forces in their current brave stand against ISIS.
 
There is do doubt in regards to what the Kurdish flag symbolises and stands for and following a call by Massaud Barzani, President of the Kurdistan Region, official and popular celebrations are held annually on National Kurdish Flag Day throughout Kurdistan. This is a visual means of showing unity in the Kurdish determination to be independent and in preparation for this day, markets bustle with thousands shopping for the Kurdish Independence flag and schools throughout Kurdistan hold festivals and proudly fly the flag – their Independence flag.
 
In Cymru, the only flag that can symbolise Cymric Independence is the Four Lions Rampant flag of our greatest of national heroes, our warrior Prince Owain Glyndŵr. This great enigmatic Cymric leader was the only Cymric leader, to date, to really de-occupy Cymru of the Anglo Normans and re-establish Cymric Independence in the opening decade of the 15th century, following on over 100 years of Anglo Norman occupation. Similar to the Kurds, Prince Owain Glyndŵr and the Cymry fought against overwhelming odds; a nation of 50,000 against a nation (and the military might) of three million.  When the time came and the Cymry could give no more and the Cymric War of Independence waned due to lack of men and resources, Price Owain was never captured by the enemy – and was never betrayed - as had been the case with his predecessors. True to his enigmatic personality, he mysteriously disappeared into the mists of history leaving us with the prophecy that he, the Son of Prophecy, would return when the Cymry were strong enough to call on him to, once again, lead us to Independence under his Independence flag, the Four Lions Rampant. So, he left us with the legacy that the struggle for Cymric Independence continues.
 
Prince Owain Glyndŵr was born on the 28th May 1354 so, what better date than that to designate as our Cenedl Glyndŵr National Flag Day, a day to celebrate the birth and achievements of our most important of national heroes as well as a day to celebrate the continual struggle for Independence of our land and the self determination of our people.
 
The Kurdish people over the centuries have been consistently dedicated and uncompromising in their struggle for Independence in a way that we in Cymru can only admire and, hopefully, learn from if we are ever to reach that goal of Independence and survival as an entity. So, are we, as Cymry, strong enough now to take that first basic of steps of declaring our allegiance to Cenedl Glyndŵr by flying the Four Lions Rampant, the Independence flag that we have inherited from our warrior leader and the only flag that can symbolize Cymric Independence? If our Cymric political leaders are ‘for real’ about gaining Independence for Cymru, then they should do as the Kurdish President did and call for May 28th to be our National Flag Day and for the Four Lions Rampant to be officially adopted as our flag of Independence. That one symbolic move, without doubt, would be a big step forward towards achieving Cymric independence, so, let’s all show our politicians by example, that we are going ahead anyway and are adopting 28th May as National flag Day and will do as the Kurds do, and encourage our people throughout Cymru to ensure that they have bought Glyndŵr’s Four Lion Rampant, our flag of Independence by May 28th so that we can, like the Kurds, celebrate our determination to achieve our ultimate goal of Independence by the flying of our independence flag on official and business buildings, schools, hotels, castles, homes etc throughout Cymru. Let’s show the world at large that Cymru is strong enough to declare our defiance to English rule of our nation and let’s declare, strongly, our intention to continue the struggle of our warrior Prince Owain Glyndŵr for National Liberation and Independence of our homeland by the flying of his Independence flag.
 
So are we serious about achieving our goal of Independence in Cymru? If so, start at the basics and make sure that you have got your Four Lions Rampant flag ready to fly for the launch of the National Flag Day of Cenedl Glyndŵr – Cenedl Cymru Rydd om May 28th and organise celebrations in your communities to coincide. Do it this year and annually until we achieve our ultimate goal.
 
I must stress, that those that are ‘serious’ about wanting to contribute to a ‘serious’ campaign for Cymric Independence, must, once and for all, shake off the ‘shackles of Britishness’ that has and will forever stifle our struggle, and that includes ridding yourselves of the ‘Henry Tudor red dragon flag’ that has been foisted on us since 1958 as a means of keeping us forged to the British Empire. Have you got that strength and determination to get rid of it once and for all and ’instead, embrace the true flag of Cymru and Cymric Independence, the ‘Four Lions Rampant’ of Prince Owain Glyndŵr.
 
The ‘Four Lion Rampant’ flag can be purchased in Siopau Cymraeg throughout Cymru as well as on many market stalls now. It can also be purchased at Cefn Caer Medieval Hall House Pennal, where you can also take advantage of an opportunity to view the medieval hall house, the Glyndŵr Crown, The Glyndŵr Heroes Memorial Garden and the exhibition on the Life and Times of Owain Glyndŵr.
 
Extra large 5ft x 8 ft Owain Glyndŵr flags can be purchased from Embassy Glyndŵr for £15 plus £3 p&p. Send e-mail to me at sianifan@sky.com to process your purchase.
 
Why wait…be spontaneous…take your Independence flag to the Six Nations Rugby tournament games as well as all other sporting or/and public events.
