Even if the New World Order puppets in Westminster are thinking of
changing the National Anthem because it might offend some RagHead or
Muslim, there are thousands of Welshmen who will never change theirs.

Vote the Tories and Labour out.
Join a Nationalist Party with your Blood Brothers

If you don't like our Anthem; go back where you came from.

And the Irish will be no push-over for the New World Order either

FERDI KUBLER


Once a friend of mine interviewed Kübler. He started to say: "Mister Kübler,
you have been a great rider", and was immediately corrected: "No, I was not
a great rider, I was a VERY great rider!"
