THERE IS A NEED TO SERIOUSLY TAKE A LOOK AT TEACHING OF WELSH HISTORY IN WELSH SCHOOLS AND HOW THE WELSH ASSEMBLY DEALS WITH IT?

RWF MUSEUM CAERNARFON CASTLE, GOOD BUT DEPRESSING BUT WHY?













THIS RWF EXHIBITION BELOW IS EXCELLENT AND WWI SECTION A MUST, NO USE PRETENDING THIS 'WELSH HISTORY' DOES NOT EXIST AND IT IS WORTH STUDYING TO JUST SEE HOW ENGLAND AS USED THIS HISTORY TO MAKE 1000's OF WEST BRITON CAMBRIANS LOYAL TO THE ENGLISH THRONE WHICH OF COURSE IS WHAT CAERNARFON CASTLE IS ALL ABOUT. I CAN PUT UP WITH THE RWF STUFF BUT WHAT REALLY ANNOYS ME IS THE INVESTITURES EXHIBITION DEPICTING THE HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH PRINCES OF WALES WHICH I GUESS MILLIONS OF TOURISTS HAVE SEEN SINCE 1969 AND CONSIDER IT AS SOME REAL AUTHENTIC HISTORY OF WALES AND NOT OF CONQUEST AND COLONISATION. THAT IS DEPRESSING ENOUGH BUT WHAT REALLY DEPRESSES ME IS APART FROM ALL THE 'TUDOR RAGS' FLYING IN THIS 'ROYAL BOROUGH' IS THE FACT THAT IN ALL THE YEARS SINCE 1969 THE 'GOG' SUPER PATRIOTS OF GWYNEDD HAVE DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT LIKE OPEN THEIR OWN NATIVE PRINCES OF WALES EXHIBITION IN THE TOWN, WHY NOT AS YOU HAVE HAD PLENTY OF EU GRANTS OVER THE YEARS, IN FACT I HAVE NOT SEEN A TOWN WITH SO MANY  EU PLAQUES ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR GENERALLY USELESS PROJECTS AS PAVING OVER THE TOWN CENTRE AND CAR PARKS. THEN THERE IS THAT STATUE OF LLOYD GEORGE ARCH TRAITOR, THE MAN WHO SENT BLACK AND TANS TO IRELAND. GREAT THERE IS A MEMORIAL 1282 OUTSIDE THE COUNCIL OFFICES AND ANNUAL RALLY IS HELD THERE EVERY YEAR BUT NO REMEMBRANCE OF DAFYDD III AND FAMILY CAPTURED AT ABERGWYNGREGYN 21 MEHEFIN 1283 AND WHY IS THERE NO CAMPAIGN TO GET BACK THE ROYAL TREASURES OF GWYNEDD? WHATEVER, WHAT CAERNARFON AND CYMRU NEEDS MOST IS AN ANNUAL  RALLY  ATOP TWT HILL AROUND ABOUT 2 TACHWEDD TO COMMEMORATE OWAIN GLYNDWR RISING 'Y DDRAIG AUR' IN CHALLENGE TO ENGLISH RULE AND THUS KEEP THE SPIRIT OF REAL RADICAL NOT CULTURAL 'CRACHACH' NATIONALISM ALIVE!
