17 NOVEMBER 2010 'B - DAY' WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR WALES? SHOULD WE STILL BE WORRIED? WILL IT BE A DAY TO REMEMBER? Is It a Case Of, 'I Am All Right Jack' For Some But Not For Others! What's To Do?

*
It appears that Key Social Areas as Health, Education and the 'Aged' also Skills Training for the Unemployed are to be 'Ring Fenced Protected' by the WAG Budget and it's the Arts that are going to take the 'Big Hit'. Maybe it's up to those in the 'Arts' to now walk fourth, stand up and inform us clearly as to why, the 'I am all right Jacks' and the aforementioned Social Groups should support they. On the provisio the 'Arts Area' is then prepared to fully engage itself in the over all, hoped for United National Welsh Resistence Against Tory Acts of Aggression upon Wales, our communities and people. Cymdeithas yr Iaith Cymraeg/Cultural Nationalists have had to realise the need to throw their lot in with the Workers and Public or their 'Save Skin of ShamelessS4C' will get no where. It does not win me over to that particular cause but nevertheless I do call for one and all to support the 'No Cuts' Rally organised by CyIG in Caernarfon on 4 December 2010 and I hope you will as well, lets make it a massive move towards a MUDIAD Y WERIN! That could begin on the steps of the Welsh Assembly on Wednesday 17 November 2010, it's up to you? Maybe followed by from there a 'No Cuts' walk or Motorcade tour of Wales over coming weeks up to 4th December, concluding in Caernarfon that day. Kind of good publicity Initiative, see my failed attempt at similar on behalf of Vyrnwy 'Sell Off' campaign, some stuff therein could still be useful?

    Whatever, still consider Wednesday 17 November 2010 as ideal opportunity of occaision to hold a Protest but with good practical purpose, as a C.O.R.N Riot 2010, Not a real riot, I mean 'Public Street Theatre Protest'. I don't think that a real riot will get you anywhere in a Welsh Context not in these times and certainly not after all the bad press concerning the London Student Riot, evidently not 'Anarchists' after all unless they were of the 
    'Academic Anarchist' kind?
