OH, Mr Bale, Mr Bale, how your Thursday letter takes me back. It puts me in mind of those remarkable sci-fi movies of the 50s and early 60s wherein we were constantly threatened by aliens who wanted to control our minds and steal our women.
I’ll grant you the ability of today’s media to similarly suppress our ‘Welshness’ is a bit of a poor substitute, but I admire your determination to fight it tooth and nail.
We shall, no doubt, be well able to resist those alien incursions (or even the British ones) by flying little Welsh flags, as you suggest, from every shop, big or small, whether the owners want them or not.
Let them risk our mighty boycott if they dare refuse. Resistance is useless. All hail, Ming the Merciless!
