I became aware of this place d from a " urban Explorer" chanel on YouTube. He went there explained where it was located showed the access route and lack if security about June 26. He was pretty proud of himself. There was another Welsh " explorer " .
A few months later the place was burned down by four local youths looking for relvance in otherwise empty lives.
They are still locked up and face jail terms. Derelict does not mean worthless. What make kids want to burn down old building. A chapel was burned in Port Talbot . Several media outlets made fake claims it was by Muslims. Three lads must be very upset and the fourth who saw the YouTube video. Swansea jail is so nice this time of year.
Urban explorers need to be more careful and Cognizant of their responsibility ..
The Swansea independent mysogenists out on force all lined up in a row. A i Confident talented loud female was never going to be popular with those sad losers who nay have their own body mass index issues.
I am happy to report longs walks in the woods above Resolven keeps my BMI in check.
I knew there were good reasons we do not like each other. Same with the other bloke Max. For you interest.
UN Reports: A UN commission of inquiry stated that Israeli authorities have committed four of the five acts of genocide under the 1948 Genocide Convention: killing, causing serious bodily or mental harm, deliberately inflicting destructive conditions of life, and targeting children.
Targeting children is as bad as it gets in my opinion. Cowards like you say nowt. Give Charlotte some credit heart of a Lion. She should learn Welsh and go all in. A national treasure.
Keith please reflect your comment, with respect. This was a very big probably drunk bloke throwing his weight about. 18 stone blokes aiming at your legs at speed is no joke especially out of the blue.
Lincoln might ask the police to consider an assault charge. One of my neighbours in Neath was a steward for a few bob and was in his 60s with health issues. I doubt he cared if the steward was a woman. He just wanted a cheap laugh .
The general opinion is that USA already had a decent deal with the right for bases and control of military aspects. The fact that he has pretty much the same deal as before exposes him again as a bit of a showman / showboating buffoon.
I do not claim to be ultra Welsh. I am probably part Anglo Saxon. I had red hair an Welsh heritage as far back as i know which is not that far.
Good for you and your Welsh roots. Get off your arris and learn Welsh is my advice. GO in 100% why not? I do question Welshness of people if they put the boot in on their ancestors and the Senedd OUR ANCESTORS fought for and died for. a long time ago.
Learn Welsh. Too lazy? not intelligent enough? , too indoctrinated? Just not thought about it?
Why not respect the Welsh warriors 1066-1460 against the FRENCH and Saxon lackies.
Everyone rewrites History according to their narrative. I notice the word Celtic is being replaced by Briton. The word Celt is controversial as it was used to mean foreigner by the Romans. As i understand it . A bit like Americans. It can be replaced of course but not by Briton.
Historically British people in England have not identified with their Briton neighbors as Britons but Welsh or Scottish.
As I understand my ancestors did not originate in Great Briton and Ireland but migrated here from Europe and modern day Türkiye via Iberia and France. Calling them Britons decapitates our history which is perhaps the aim.
If the Welsh are Briton and the English are British then there is a strong case for English children to learn Welsh or Gaelic for solidarity with the Albion. Welsh can be called ' The British language ' spoken by ancient Britons. The flag waving Unionists on here are apathetic about Welsh and possibly even hostile. This makes no sense to me. You can love Wales and the UK. I am a Welsh patriot anti monarchist but would when young enough would have taken up arms if necessary.
I question why Unionist praise the lost warriors of WW2 and WW1 but not the heroic Welsh warriors of 1066 - 1460. I do. Both were Welsh both were brave and made ultimate sacrifices. This was scoffed at by the flag wavers and those with an Anglo viewpoint. 'boring heard it all before'. ' I read the first line and declined to read more;. I had not asked that question before. They declined to engage as they could not answer the question.
To a certain extent immigrants in Wales can be more patriotic as the 'very new Welsh ' rather than the original 'new Welsh' that came in the industrial revolution and have an anti Welsh bias buried deep in their culture. Like the Donbas people they object to speaking Ukrainian the national tongue and many Welsh will not countenance speaking their national tongue. Jason Mohamed is more patriotic than say MS Laura Jones. He supports the Senedd speaks Welsh and her outlook despite being Welsh is exclusively English.
I am Celtic not a Briton. My red haired artistic and athletic ancestors originated out side these Islands and existed h for centauries in Europe and beyond. Similar red haired people are found in Russia in the Urals. I am proud of my people my ancestors going back to pre Roman times and through to the present. English m immigrants and weakened our resolve and promoted assimilation the wiping out of our culture and the n handing back of powers to London. The lack of self respect and pride is a major reason for poor performance in education.
The conversion of a few Anglo or African players is always a fillip. Bellamy has not persuaded Mikey Moore a winger from Spurs to commit. More surprising neither has Boro CB Ashley Phillips. His England prospects are close to zero .
'Pro Gaza' is an humanist cause and not a Muslim or sectarian cause. Swedes like most of Scandia is generally not very religious but still has their stomach turned by land theft gross violence and ethnic cleansing which has created a cycle of the violence.
Engage if you want to it is not compulsory. I give my opinions. I raise one or two interesting points. You do what English always do and pour scorn on Welsh pride. If the Senedd goes then so does the FAW and Welsh national football team. The ex copper from Wirral does not give a fig and recommends watching 'Coronation street' when they play. What a rabble.
Here are Russians speaking about the meeting in the Senedd. You and your chums are indoctrinated and feeble Welshmen. 'They speak Welsh in North Wales and Lampeter. Best not to go there' for the Swansea independent Welsh Unionist boys.
Isreal is the local agitator and has destabilized numerous Arab countries facilitating the rise of radical factions in Iraq Syria and Libya.
The idea is to destabilise and trigger civil wars such that these state become dysfunctional and unable to harm Isreal. They destroy infrastructure leading to refugees which Europe accepted under Merkel. The tide has turned on this.
Isreal persuaded Trump to launch an attack the was not prepared to back up with the US army on the ground. There would be few Islamicists in UK and Europe if Isreal respected its borders and did not interfere.
I take a dim view of any Welsh person who promotes the abolishing of the Senedd.
Why is there a Senedd at all? The reason is our ancestors fought and died for it a few hundred years ago. They fought not to be English. I respect them and honour their sacrifice as I do the WW1 and WW2 heroes. I do not have a historical 'cut off'. Why should I have an artificial cut of date of say 1900? Why not 1110 to 1460? the ' warm period". In 1998 their ' Victory' was announced.
I would not even worry about a Reform led Senedd as long as they were 100% committed to its long term future. We have yet to see how Welsh the flag waving MS s like Jason O'Connell Llyr Powel and Jonathan Evans really are? The lovely Laura Jones cannot be trusted and would love to be an MP. The shopping is so much better in London. I suspect they dance to Farage's tune and might even promote a referendum . No way for me. Defeat would end the National football team in time. There is no free lunch. We become another nameless dull place over run by Globalization and Michael Jackson.
If you do not speak Welsh OK. If you do not want to learn Welsh OK If you want to Abolish the Senedd than that is a full house. You may as well be English. Abolishing the Senedd would be a disaster. This is the Restore policy not the Reform policy who say nothing but could easily pull a fast one once in power.
English is a global phenomena and we must stand strong and determined. I saw a podcast by a redheaded Russian girl from near Perm in the Urals. She went to some far flung Russian place in the Caucuses. The woman she spoke to in a village knew no Russian and the communicated in English the Caucasian learned from Satellite TV.
Many English people want to crush Wales and things Welsh. It is the English way. The whole Albion was Welsh at one time but all airbrushed including placenames. Even Welsh name are not accepted. Rhun is called 'Ron' by Welsh lackies for a laugh. Geraint Thomas the cyclist became "G' and Gerwyn Price became 'Gezzer'
It is not malicious of course. It just happens. It is what they do and have done for centauries. I had a 'Bara brith' in Kent. They rebranded it 'tea soaked cake' . Tiramisu was respected.
Many Welsh wimps on here promote the right of English racists to ethnically abuse Welsh fans and teams that sometime have no Welsh players except a few callow youths and Ben Cabango. Millwall the worse. I recall 200 Millwall yobo s making sheep noises at the arriving Swansea coach. Feral racist yobs .Happily two goals by London boy Darren Pratley sent them home unhappy.
Speaking Welsh in Wales is now ignorant. It time we tell these people to Eff off. Some Welsh people repeat English narratives to appease. None one has actually seen anyone in A Welsh pub speaking English then turning Welsh to spite them. It is a racist trope. Welsh speakers switch languages al the time as they are bilingual.
I do not throw over emotional words around like the ex copper from the Wirral but words like 'traitor' do come into my thoughts when I think about our history. They were real hard warrior in those days. They kept the Normans out for 400 years and they had morphed into 'The English' it took so long. Cymru am byth. The battle of Shrewsbury was 1068 two years after Hastings.
If you not not like the sound of the Welsh language just accept it like you do for the Pakistanis and Bangladeshis in your corner shop or stay away.
A perfect marker game for the Swans. A win will add evidence that this team belongs at the top. Lincoln will be tough but are not works beaters. One would expect West Ham Wolves and Southampton to be too good for them.
