I am referring to two letters written by Cris Schoen to a Papur Cymraeg ‘Y Cymro’ in recent weeks. The first was his declaration of intent to become a ‘Remainiac’ and vote for
So, who is Cris Schoen? A
former freind and fellow member of Cofiwn as Siân and I were but Chris had a
greater need to be seen as a supporter of the ‘Cymru Cymraeg’ struggle and thus
has been a keen adherent of ‘Language Movements’ such as CYIG. He’s actually
been a ‘joiner’ of new Cymric movements that appear ‘the next popular new
thing’ and joined, both, Y Cyfamodwyr and Cymuned in turn for such reason. He
had also joined Plaid Cymru with whom he fell out with in the mid 1970’s and
actually ripped up his Plaid Cymru membership card publically in a TV
Interveiw. Since however, Chris has returned to the ranks of the former
Nationalist Party now led by Green far left advocate Plaid Cymru Leader Leanne
Wood. Despite he hating all things left which got him in the bad books of Robat Gruffydd of Y Saeth magazine to an extent
where Robert was set to punch his lights out as was Dafydd Iwan for some really
silly remark that he had made criticising Dafydd. Chris appears to have a
pathetic passion for passing on gossip and upsetting folk and movements that he
does not agree with such as Llais Gwynedd whom also got a mauling from Chris
but, it’s the ‘English’ Chris really hates or, as he would call them, ‘White
Settlers’ for having the audacity of settling in his village though he does not
mention other immigrants. No doubt Cris in this area is at one with 'Swansea Jac' aka Lord of the North, another 'Sais Hater'.
All rather Ironic as Cris is of Anglo
– Dutch stock and came to settle in Cardiff , Wales from Wolverhampton !
However, he decided that he wanted to become a ‘Cymro’ and ‘Super
Patriot’. His politics is of the ‘Dilletant’
kind for most, part coloured with a racist attitude to the English especially
if they enter his ‘Cymru
Cymraeg Daffodil
Garden ’. He is of a
Politically parochial and blinkered narrow view of Wales and the World to say the
least. His attacks on Siân and myself are simply of the poison bluebottle gow
shit depositing sort as can be seen in his last letter (2) to ‘Y Cymro’ in
which he seeks to associate us with UKIP, Nathan Gill, Neil Hamilton and Harri
Tudor. This, from a man who is regularly seen carrying the Tudor flag at
parades rather than the true flag for Cymric Independence the ‘Four Lions Rampant flag of
Tywysog Owain Glyndwr!
Now, if he does see our support for
Leave EU in our WEXIT Wales leave EU Campaign as some sort of betrayal against
his concept of Cymru and a betrayal of Owain
Glyndŵr, then Chris ignores the fact that almost 850.000 ‘Welsh People’ and
a long list of businesses had also had the common sense to vote to leave and
they were certainly not ‘English’ or UKIP members or supporters.
We must have really pulled a painful
deep rooted hair out of Chris’s nose as he ends his letter by saying we should
not be running Llysgenhadaeth Glyndŵr but more so Llysgenhadaeth UKIP! A large
number of the Welsh Nationalist fraternity know us and our half century of work
on behalf of Wales and the Welsh Nationalist struggle and are also aware that,
although we have many supporters on the ground in different pockets of Cymru,
it is just the two of us that run Embassy Glyndŵr on a continuous day to day
basis and that we have done a great deal in advance of Achos Glyndŵr since 1998
and prior to that in the Cofiwn days since 1972. I, myself, have been an ‘Adfywiadwr
Gwladgarol’ throughout the ‘Sixties’ and because of my radical struggle against
the Investiture in 1969, ended up in
prison for 9 Months and was in Irish Exile for 2 Years.
Chris, you are well known for being a
‘gossiper’ and a loud mouth who cannot think for himself but just passes on
‘soundbites’ ( very much like a parot) without considering the consequences as
a means of drawing attention to yourself as someone who’s part of a current
popular crusade but your latest ‘childish’ diatribe against Siân and myself
show that you have also become a total asshole! I suggest that you, for once in
your life, take the lead in doing something really useful like starting a
campaign to mobalise and organise the future struggle against Investiture III
so that Gwynedd is not for the third time seen as submitting again to the
English Crown, go on, knock yourself out!
PS: Have not seen a town that has so many EU 'Stamp of Servitude Approval' Grant Grabbing Plaques as Caernarfon. Beats the amount of English Crown plaques we have stuck up all over our land, does no patriot see such as a comparative grovelling and desire to get rid of?
Gethin.

ANOTHER FLAG OF SERVITUDE.
