Happy St David's Day

A very Happy St David's Day to all the Cymro out there.

Would Owain Glyndwr accept the rule of Westminster or Brussels?

Would Hywel Dda accept the "hooman rights innit" culture so beloved of Cherie Blair and immigrant hoodies?

Would either of them recognise their homeland?

Food for thought...

Quote of the Week

“Unless people start life with a culture of their own, exposure to other cultures will seldom enhance their moral or even aesthetic awareness. Without home culture, as it used to be called – a background of firmly held standards and beliefs – people will encounter the “other” merely as consumers of impressions and sensations, as cultural shoppers in pursuit of the latest novelties. It is important for people to measure their own values against others and to run the risk of changing their minds; but exposure to others will do them very little good if they have no minds to risk. New perspectives presuppose a pre-existing point of view.”

Christopher Lasch.
