STUFF THE MONARCHY
JIM | 15.12.2001 12:12
Attempts to resist the military domination of Wales and the subjugation of our culture have been met with brute force and betrayal, from the Glyndwr uprising of the 15th century to direct action campaign of Meibion Glyndwr in the 1980s. But next year we hope to witness the birth of a new Republican movement in Wales. Combining direct action with a community-oriented (as opposed to the whole London-centred bias of the English Left) approach, we aim to create a movement that will rebuild this country from the bottom up.
The English monarchy have no part in the future we envision, so they've got to go, and next year through direct action and the creation of a broad-based alliance we will register our opposition to the continued existence of the Royal family - in Wales or anywhere else for that matter.
But sectarian we are not, so our aim is to create a broad-based alliance of the various social movements in Wales, whether you are Green, Red, or any particular colour, you are free and welcome to affiliate to our campaign and join in the activities we hope to co-ordinate across Wales, and in conjunction with other anti-monarchy campaigns and activities across the UK.
Our campaign begins on March the 1st, St. Davids day, and continues right through the Jubilee "celebrations" in mid June. Up to that time, we aim to set up Stuff the monarchy committees across the whole of Wales. Get in touch on the e-mail address above.
