Interesting that more than a few English flunkies beat their merry way to Aber, Uni. as they seem to perceive it as a hotbed of radical wokeism. More than a few English wannabe revolutionaries have cut their collective teeth pretending that they are committed Welsh Nationalists, when they aren’t.

Black Lives Matter was founded by extreme anti-white racists which include Yusra Khougali/Yusra Ali, who the left wing Huffington Post described as “directing violent, hateful language towards people with white skin.” There are various other sites via search engines which expose what BLM is really about.

BLM are heavily funded by The Ford Foundation and Borealis Philanthropy via the formation of the Black-Led Movement Fund [BLMF]

That funding comes in addition to more than $33 million in grants to the Black Lives Matter movement from top Democratic Party donor George Soros through his Open Society Foundations, as well as grants from the DNC’s Center for American Progress.

Soros makes his billions from promoting the destabilising of the economies of countries of all political persuasions. He (in)famously has stated “I aim to make money, and I do not care about the consequences that has on people.” Bottom line is that BLM is a money making racket, funded by Soros and DNC related organisations, using ANTIFA and other anarchist groups to try to destabilise the western world economically and politically.

The less “woke” i.e. less gullible, are beginning to realise what BLM is really about, especially when they are continually pestered to give to “the cause” by BLM crowdfunding sites.

You have to hand it to them though, as a marketing slogan, Black Lives Matter is a brilliant name for a scam.

Ah, yes, the Brangwyn Hall. I got thrown out of there once. Roy Jenkins was speaking, and in his plummy voice he said, ‘I’m Welsh, just like you’. I jumped up and shouted ‘You’re no fucking Welshman’, whereupon an old biddy sitting behind started laying into me with her umbrella, then the Labour stewards closed in and I was ‘escorted’ from the building. Happy days!

I’m surprised the “wokies” have not started jumping up and down about the Brangwyn Panels in Swansea Guildhall. Commissioned from Sir Frank Brangwyn R,A. by the House of Lords just after WW1, to commemorate “the glories of Empire” by the time they were finished in the early 1930’s references to “the empire”:were already somewhat non-PC, and the panels were rejected. They were put up for sale by tender and the City of Swansea bid the highest (narrowly beating Coventry). The Council was desperate to have the panels to decorate the concert hall within it’s newly completed Guildhall. The venue was, of course, subsequently renamed Brangwyn Hall. The huge panels illustrate various jungle settings with wild animals and lots of people “of tanned appearance”. Hundreds of thousands were spent a few years back on renovating the panels, if anyone wants to look at them, I suggest they nip round soon, before the revisionists press the supine Labour Council to pull them down.

PENRHYN CASTLE.

The National Trust should also be forced to hand over Penrhyn Castle to CADW.

Then the next Welsh Government can get CADW to display the REAL history of Wales. Open up a ‘slavery museum’ in the east wing and a ‘quarrymans museum’ in the west wing.

This will result in turning away the mainly white nostalgic clones of empire visiting from England wearing those fleece jackets adorned with oak leaves, and open up our heritage to the rest of the world.

Does the National Trust publish a breakdown of their membership by country and ethnicity?

I’ve always said we should chuck the NT out of Wales and have a Welsh body to look after what is, after all, our heritage.

Selectively woke, as one would expect from a political and social fashionista.

In Bengal he committed atrocities like forcing farmers to grow crops on occupied land and exporting them to Britain before leaving the natives to famine. He ransacked cultural artefacts from India into his personal collection. Clive of India then inherited Powis (sic) Castle, where he housed the loot.

This property is now owned by the National Trust. They gets grants from the Welsh Government to promote tourism to the castle. They describe this loot as “Clive also brought the superb collection of treasures from India to Powis Castle which are displayed in the Clive Museum.” No mention of how the loot was obtained.

Should the National Trust return the artefacts to India, the woke in the Senedd stop being upper hypocrites like Bethan Sayed? Hand the land the building back to Wales? Evict the National Trust from our country?

Think you’re woke?
Will gift green paint and sledgehammer.

Thank God for that! You were getting a wee bit sanctimonious.

The view expressed to me (from my time in London) is that people of colour are most often the victim of their own community.

There is a small minority of black people who do peddle drugs, mug, rob houses, and carry knives. Whilst ‘stop and search’ is one side of their burden, the other side of their burden is that they are victims of crime committed by other black people. Most stabbings of black kids are committed by other black kids. This means when police, for example, are looking for a suspect in such crimes, they are looking for an IC3 male.

Have witnessed a black police officer arrest a black youth in possession of a blade. The abuse from the offender towards the police officer included terms such as ‘white nigger’, ‘chalky slave’ and ‘plastic brother’. Had it been a white suspect resisting arrest using such racist abuse, it would be considered an aggravating feature of the offence.

I don’t think that BLM will play any positive role in combating racism because it is cantered on virtue signalling rather than grass-roots community activism from within communities affected. When Kirsty and Imogen go back to their semi in the affluent white suburbs, to find the next ‘ishoo’ to champion, there will still be black people working night shift picking up their discarded pizza boxes from the streets with their kids afraid to go through the school gates where Leroy the pusher is waiting to recruit the next mule.

In Wales, it’s a bit different, however, the aspirations of people of colour in Cardiff is not championed by the sons of affluent foreign office delegations born in Zambia and raised in Dorset (Gething) but championed by sons of dock workers, raised in the streets of Ely who fights for the rights of black families over day-to-day concerns of real disadvantage (McEvoy).

All black people do not have the same POV, that very concept is in itself racist
