THE LAST INVASION, GARREG WASTED, ABERGWUAN 1797.


Royal Oak Pub, here the French signed a surrender, too bad there were no serious Welsh Republicans about as Ireland had the Republican United Irishmen. History might have been so different, those Welsh who were of a Republican mind were very much Cambro - Brit Republicans seeking a 'British Republic' and that includes Iolo Morgannwg. Unfortunately we cannot change history unless we do so creatively via an 'Alternative History' as in:

Stuff the Surrender is what above picture is saying, mind you I consider contemporary Welsh Republicanism as for the most part being stuffed by a collection of  ''Welsh Republicanisms'' that needs to get itself sorted as it's present perilous state it is all a 'Patriotic Pottage' that will get no where.
