Kernow/Cornwall - 'There may be trouble ahead'

Cornish militants have been at it again and we are forced to asked when the English Imperial and Colonial Establishment will listen ?

Not only has spray canning being resumed but also the threat made against the English Flag of St George being flown in the Country.

Known as the 'banner of blood' (not only in Kernow but elsewhere in the other Celtic Nations and also, quite oddly, by more than one right wing English group) 'the loathsome flag' and the 'blood cross' due to its bloody history, activists have again stated clearly that they will be removing such insults across Kernow.

I trust we can all support the Celtic Cornish here in the other celtic Nations as well, where the sight of this insulting image would not be permitted.

In short, the message seems to be, 'remove this reminder of English superiority now or face the consequences !'

We recently found this little ditty on a Cornish webpage which says it all:

'Loathsome flag of blood red cross
Cause of many a Cornish loss
With face as white as sun bleached bones
Despised in all good Celtic homes

Alban, Kembry, Kernow all hope
For freedom from the Anglo's yoke
The right to determine own destiny
No shackle of English autocracy

To stand as equal partners in the world
With fair taxation for a fair day's toil
Local work, decisions and lien
To stand again as free men'

BRITISH OCCUPATION IS THE CRIME
A spokesperson for Republican Sinn Féin has condemned the ending of automatic 50% remission for prisoners within the Six Occupied Counties. Richard Walsh, RSF Director of Publicity, added that British occupation was the greatest crime being committed in Ireland.

“A foreign military power does not and cannot have the right to incarcerate people on Irish soil,” he said. “And the fact that many people have been gaoled by the English for opposing the illegal occupation of our country is especially abhorrent.

“Those sentenced to ten years' or longer imprisonment will have to serve the entirety of the British-imposed sentence before being considered for parole. This means that these sentences are effectively being doubled. Automatic fifty percent remission has also been cast aside for the remainder of prisoners.

“It should always be remembered that it is the occupation of Ireland by a foreign enemy which remains the greatest crime being perpetrated against the Irish people.”

And upon that all true Celts agree !

TONY LEAMON - Brave Celtic Cornishman still subject of ill treatment by Colonial Police

More news regarding Tony Leamon, Celtic activist from Kernow who is now compared to a Michael Collins type figure after refusing to be called English, all this courtesy of the site:

Tony Leamon - still on bail!

As readers will be aware, yesterday should have been the day that Celtic League activist Tony Leamon answered his bail at Camborne police station.

The Celtic League ran this story on their news pages, thinking that Tony may at last be taken off bail for lack of any evidence against him. A demonstration outside Camborne police station had been planned by Branch activists and so had a campaign of coordinated activity to contact Camborne police station asking about Tony's welfare, by email and telephone, from across the world.

However, just before Tony left his house yesterday, two police officers called round and told him that his bail would be delayed until 2nd July 2008.

Whether this was a calculated attempt by the police to avoid any negative publicity in the press for themselves or whether it was because they can find no evidence whatsoever to charge Tony with, we will probably never know.

The CPW feeling is that the truth lies somewhere between the two scenarios. What is clear though, after this bail date, is that Tony’s support is growing at an incredible rate. The longer Tony is on bail the more people around the world are becoming aware of the injustice that he is being subjected to by the Devon and Cornwall colonial police.

Emails of support have been coming in to the CPW team and others from as far afield as USA, Canada, France, Spain, Australia and Malaysia, in addition to the support base in the celtic countries.

Yesterday, after the visit from the police, Tony contacted his solicitor to complain about the length of bail that he has now received and to see if something could be done about it. His solicitor told him that the police can keep him on bail for as long as necessary and that it is only the time spend at the police station, being interrogated that actually maters. By July Tony will have been on bail for 10 months and has been interrogated for 18 to 20 hours.

After arrest the police can only keep you at the police station for a maximum of 24 hours before being charged. However, solicitor friend that Tony has also been in contact with told him that he had never heard of such an extended bail period before.

This weekend at the Annual Rio Grande Valley Celtic Festival and Highland Games in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, a flyer about Tony’s treatment will be distributed to visitors from the Cornwall stall and people will be able to add their name and contact details to a distribution list to be kept informed about further developments.

Also a support fund has been set up for Tony to cover any legal costs. Also see this link for further details.

We at the Celtic Warrior recognize the great courage being shown by Mr Tony Leamon in the face of the Colonial police who occupy Kernow. Our thoughts and best wishes are with you and as soon as news of the support fund is announced, you can rest assured that we shall be contributing as should all good Celts ! United we stand against the Imperialists !

Wot - No Saint George? No thanks - this is Cornwall !

Sent to me by Tom Graham:

WOT – NO SAINT GEORGE? NO THANKS - THIS IS CORNWALL !

Strange things are happening in a little land somewhere to the South West of England. Of course, I refer to Cornwall, otherwise known as ‘Kernow’ by some of its Celtic inhabitants.
St. George’s Day, March 23rd. dawned in Cornwall but there was a positive glut of Saint George’s flags seen draped across many English Counties.
Those brave English patriots at Bude in north Cornwall decided to raise the red crossed white banner at 9AM over the weather station. By 10am, it has disappeared and local police were called in to investigate. A man had been seen taking the flag down and making off with it but who the man was remains a mystery. Diligently, officers fully recorded the crime and broadcast an appeal for information.

Later in the day, construction company, Wimpey’s released a public apology for upsetting the Cornish people by encouraging its workers in Cornwall to celebrate Saint George.
Following howls of protest and letters and scores of e-mails, Janine Davey, Wimpey’s Associate Sales and Marketing Director officially apologised and stated that the apology would be made public in the same local press where the company had advertised its support of England’s Saint.
http://www.cornwall24.co.uk/Article960.htm
On another Cornish website, one English patriot moaned that his Saint George’s flag had been pelted with eggs. On the same website, comments referred to the flag as the ‘blood cross’ ‘banner of blood’ and ‘foreign emblem’. On another website, one poster said that to fly the St. George’s flag in Cornwall was alike to ‘flying a swastika over Jerusalem’ and that the only flag for Cornwall was the St. Piran’s flag, a white cross on a black background. According to local news reports, more of these were to be seen on St. George’s Day than the English flag even though St. Piran had been celebrated by record numbers on and around his official day in the Duchy, March 5th as well as by ex-pat Cornish people across the globe.
On BBC Radio Cornwall, Dick Cole, a local councillor and leader of Mebyon Kernow (translated from the Cornish language as ‘Sons of Cornwall’) was asked his opinion on Saint George’s Day and was careful not to dismiss it outright but informed listeners that perhaps Saint Piran was a little more relevant to Cornish people, who may not be, well, English but more closely related to other Celts around the fringes of the British Isles.
No sign of the English Loving Cup of St. George in Truro this year either although it may well have been smuggled in. Last year, its appearance in Cornwall’s only city sparked widespread demonstrations and outcry in the press and media.
A group of people who remained nameless demonstrated their feelings on Englishness in their own way, by burning a Union Flag at an ancient site in Cornwall, apparently in protest that the site is currently owned by English Heritage rather than a designated Cornish Heritage or British Heritage body.
Although the media generally portrayed a widespread celebration of St. George, the patron Saint of England but also of many other nations and states, cities and quite bizarrely, sufferers of syphilis met with mockery not only in Cornwall, but also at the hands of BBC Radio 4, where Elvis McGonagall read a short poem entitled ‘By George!’ much to the hilarity of many listeners:
“Once more unto the breach, dear Morris Dancers, once moreJingle your bells, thwack sticks, raise flagonsCry “God for Harry and Saint George!”Gallant knight and slayer of dragonsPatron saint of merry England –And Georgia, and Catalonia, and Portugal, Beirut, Moscow Istanbul, Germany, GreeceArchers, farmers, boy scouts, butchers and sufferers of syphilisMulticultural icon with sword and codpieceOn, on you bullet-headed Saxon sonsFly flags from white van and cabBut remember stout yeomen, your champion was TurkishSo – get drunk and have a kebab”

Congratulations to the real Cornish freedom fighters ! Keep up the good work and remember that other Celts have learned that the English will not go unless postive action against them is taken. They have little time for democracy or public opinion unless it is their own !

Celtic Breton Activists fight back

Fears of unrest in Brittany after English-owned homes attacked

English expatriates in Brittany have been targeted in a series of attacks against foreign-owned property.
Darren and Linsey Widd, who moved to France after serving with the Army in Iraq, were one of three families affected on the same night.
The attacks have raised fears of a new wave of unrest in Brittany, where houses prices have risen dramatically in some areas after an influx of foreign residents and Parisian second-home owners.
Two years ago locals from the town of Bourbriac staged a demonstration during which they burnt estate agents’ leaflets and chanted “Brittany for the Bretons”. Graffiti calling for “English out” has appeared in towns around the area.
The Widds fled their home in Callac at 2am, with their two-year-old daughter, Chloe, after they awoke to find diesel fumes pouring into their bedroom. The windows of the couple’s café bar, on the ground floor of their terraced property, were on fire and flames were moving up the walls of the house after their car, parked directly outside, was set on fire.
That night two English-owned homes in the neighbouring hamlet of La Chappelle Neuve were broken into and ransacked. A camper van parked outside one of the houses was also burnt out. Nobody was in the houses.
Mr Widd, 32, told The Times that the couple, who moved to Callac a year ago because they could not afford a house in Britain, had considered moving away from France because of fears about further attacks.
“We are not cowardly people – we have spent time in war zones – but when there are children involved it is different. If it hadn’t been for our neighbours’ support we might have packed up and gone home. Yes, we are insured, but that doesn’t comfort you when you are trying to sleep.”
Mr Widd, originally from Scarborough, North Yorkshire, described how he awoke to see flames rising up the outside of the house and had dashed outside carrying his young daughter before attempting to tackle the blaze.
A rag soaked in petrol had apparently been stuffed into the Renault Espace’s fuel tank before being set alight.
“The handbrake cable on the car snapped and the car rolled down the road in flames, before crashing into a parked car and setting fire to two other houses at the bottom of the hill.
“It was like a firebomb rolling down the road. Luckily they had shutters over the doors and windows, but they were burnt along with the brickwork.”
Like the houses and van in La Neuve Chappelle, the Widds’ car was pelted with eggs before the fire. Mrs Widd, 23, originally from Kidderminster, who along with her husband served in Iraq in 2003, said: “Apparently throwing eggs at cars or houses in France is a way of showing disgust at their owners. What shocked us was that there was no warning”.
Lieutenant Michel Cordon, the senior policeman in Callac, said that the latest three incidents were being investigated: “We are doing all we can to find the perpetrators,” he said.
“I can’t say that it was definitely racist. What we do know is that there are incidents of this kind every now and then and we qualify them as ‘acts of incivility’.
“The victims are not only British. Your compatriots can rest assured that everything is being done.”

— About 300,000 Britons own a property in France
— The figure has doubled in five years
— 80 per cent of property purchased is in rural areas and most require renovation.
— After the French, Britons are the second-most-active buyers of property in Paris.
— Two bedroom apartments in the capital start at about €375,000 (£254,031).
— Waterfront properties in Cannes can be bought for about €330,000
— The usual term for a mortgage is 15 years unlike the usual 25-year term in England.

May we offer our sincere congratulations to the brave Breton Patriots who took part in this active service operation ! You are an inspiration to all the oppressed Celtic peoples !

The English & their Imperial System

By their nature, the English like to possess, to overwhelm, to deny and to destroy. They have an inherent superiority and arrogance. This was again revealed recently in a survey when the English were described variously as 'insular' 'arrogant' 'binge drinkers' 'quarrelsome' 'self important' and so on.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1939201/Rough-Guide-to-England%2C-an-irritating-place.html#continue

This is confirmed in the subsequent postings on many websites and newspapers which carried this article.

The English can easily be identified as being shaven headed, the males with more ear rings than the females, covered by a variety of tatooes, wearing a football shirt normally a size or two too small and celebrating the fact that their third rate football team won the football world cup some 42 years ago.

The fact that the Irish gained independence from their Empire 80 odd years ago irritates them as does the growing possibility of Scottish independence in the aftermath of the 2010 referendum.

The English never recovered from loss of Empire and as a result of this are expected to fight to retain some possessions which are not their own in the form of Cymru and Kernow.

They love to cause upset by flying their St. George's Flag as a symbol of superiority and will commonly use phrases such as 'English' Passport, 'English' registered car and so on as the majority do not understand the difference between England and Britain.

They are very militaristic although do not realise that their armed forces have reduced considerably. Anything European, including the Euro, is mistrusted because through the eyes of the English, Europeans are a lesser species.

Individually charming but when in a crowd, dangerous, the English believe the world owes them a living and as recent poll results show, are becoming increasingly right wing and insular.
