Patriot Man



So who will be coming down your chimney this Christmas Eve? Sion Corn, Santa Claus or will it be Patriot Man? If it is Patriot Man you will have to pin him up against the kitchen units and unmask the diawl because according to BBC Radio 4 this morning it could be either Paul Nuttall of UKIP or Stephen Kinnockio of Labour for they have both claimed the word for themselves and their parties and presumably the electorate. According to Wikepedia a Patriot is someone who feels strong support for their country but which country pray tell are they talking about because Great Britain is not a country it is a collection of countries many of whose residents/subjects are reluctant members of Team GB. Patriots in the American Revolution were those who supported the cause of Independence against Britain. In the U.S.A they have a Patriot Day established  in remembrance of the September 11th 2001 terrorist attacks. So we have to ask the question "Are Nuttella and Kinnockio New England Patriots?" What country do they want us to be patriotic towards? The conglomeration of countries built on the back of slavery and empire? That's history butt, that's a long time ago. In the same week that we hear that the cost of rewiring Buckingham Palace will be 369 million, we are told that there are parties that are going to put the Great back in Great Britain. Well you can fuck right off with that malarkey in a Cardiff accent. The British Government and Secret Service have been historical masters of Divide and Conquer. We are seeing the results of this in Israel and Palestine at the moment. The Patriotic British and Americans set up strategic bases in Bahrain to get to the oil hence our patriotic involvement with Saudi Arabia. Oh what tangled webs British & American Patriots have weaved over the centuries. I tell yew what butt, if Patriot man comes down my chimney this Christmas Eve, I'm going to roast his chestnuts over an open fire and sing Calon Lan whilst doing it! Iechyd Da!
