Today in Welsh history… 17 September 1880, Fred Godfrey (the pen name of Llewellyn Williams) the WWI songwriter, was born in Swansea. During WWI he gained a reputation as a writer of war songs. His song "Take Me Back to Dear Old Blighty" was recorded in 1916 and quickly became a hit. On 26 January 1917 he was conscripted into the Royal Naval Air Service (he was transferred to the Royal Air Force in 1918). In 1917, while he was away in the RNAS, "Down Texas Way", a song he had written the year before, was published and become a success. He is also credited with writing the lyric for "Bless 'Em All" in 1917. In November 1940, George Formby's recording of "Bless 'Em All" was released. After WWI, it had become a kind of unofficial anthem of the RAF. The recording was an immediate success. Formby recorded a second version in early 1941, with new lyrics by Godfrey.

Today in Welsh history… 7 September 1402, Henry IV was nearly killed whilst campaigning against Owain Glyndwr in Wales. Following Owain Glyndwr's victory at The Battle of Bryn Glas on 22nd June,​ Henry IV attempted to regain control in Wales. Crossing into central Wales from Shrewsbury and Hereford Castle, Henry’s forces marched towards the Cistercian abbey of Strata Florida. In terrible weather and constantly harried by Owain's forces, Henry reached Strata Florida and partially destroyed the abbey, executing monks suspected of pro-Glyndwr loyalties. However, Owain's forces continued to engage in guerilla tactics on the English king’s supply chain. By 7th September, torrential rain was lashing Henry's army, he was reduced to sleeping in his armour and was almost killed by a large tent support when his tent blew away. By September 22nd, it was evident that the campaign had been a military failure for the King and his army, starving and demoralised, was forced to withdraw to Hereford Castle.

Mining mural. Maerdy.

When politicians and smug media commentators tell you that "we need migrants to do the jobs that Brits won't do", it's a LIE. Millions of migrants come to Britain not to work, but to abuse the benefits system - costing the country billions.
