Y Ddraig Goch a Y Ddraig Cannaid

During the 60s the English government and more specifically the Liverpool council constructed a dam and flooded a valley in Wales, obliterating a Welsh speaking only community, the village of Capel Celyn. All the Welsh politicians were against the project which was to supply water to the English city of Liverpool.
The residents of Capel Celyn were evicted from their homes and the village destroyed by dynamite. At the opening ceremony local crowds attacked the dignitaries collapsing tents and trapping them inside, that would've been great fun to see and take part in! During the construction of the dam and the hydro-electric plant Welsh "freedom fighters" used explosives to sabotage the proceedings. The English used explosives to destroy the homes. Who are the terrorists here?

"...gradually the Welsh people realised that when it came to a conflict with their bigger English neigbour, they had no control over their destiny." (BBC news).

Actually they had realised that in the 13th Century
Anyway, after 40 years the Liverpool city council have offered an apology to the community. Sorry we destroyed you livelihoods people, we just wanted some cheap water.

PoA today is Bright and Sunny and not too hot!
