The history of this shameful act by the city of Liverpool is being shown on BBC One now. A disgraceful blot on the copybook of that city.

The Welsh interviewed seemed sophisticated, educated and polite, that is all we heard about Liverpool was the people were living in slums, they were said to be spitting at the Welsh and even their politicians were said to be shouting people down including the great Gwynfor Evans.

Like I said on the other thread (without knowing the content of the show), the creation of the Welsh Assembly some say can be traced back to the flooding of the village.

I'm surprised nobody has put underwater pics of some of the building up, seeing the gravestones underwater is terrible.

A small village people probably would have hated living in by now gets submerged, and a bustling metropolis obtains a much needed new water supply.

Fair swap IMO.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

... zero.

First of all Uxbridge was not a tadpole when this happened ..

Anyway, north west TV did an excellent programme of this shown last night with the excellent Simon Obrien interviewing former residents there.
Also, reported people singing the Anthem in Liverpool Town HALL in defiance.

Great stuff ,the kind of Irish sentimental drivel served up to keep old bitterness alive and completely meaningless.

THE FACT it was a welsh language village seems to be key; if it had been ,say Ebbw Vale few would have been bothered.

I doubt there's be many tears shed if Ebbw got flooded today, but hey ho.

I must have driven past this art/graffiti/banner a hundred times during my time up in Aber, so it's something I've long held an interest in. Undoubtedly IMO it was the main event in the 20th century that sparked off any sort of pan-Welsh political co-operation. Must admit the one thing I didn't twig was the incidental benefits it brought to the Welsh economy in an attempt to appease growing resentment. Clasey might not have a job otherwise

It was the reaction and lack of compassion from the Liverpool citizens that really resonated with me though. For a city that prides itself on that, I found it quite striking.

Wasn't up here to comment on that.

University there would be a great cause to relate to.


Quite how the people of Liverpool should be hammered for this is what is striking for me.

As you know, without visitors from Liverpool and the north west of England north Wales would be an economical basket case.

Apart from water, nowt

If it was more the gobbing at and abusing people protesting against the destruction of their community that struck me, but hey ho. All cities have their history.

I would guess that north Wales is much more popular with tourists than south Wales. Cruise ship stop there for a start. Hope they keep the curtains shut till they get off Anglesey.

Christ Perchie, something must have happened to you for you to have such a dislike for the people of North Wales?

The reason people flock there is because it is one of the most beautiful areas in the World, the scenery and landscape are simply breathtaking. That's a little bit more than nowt don't you think?

It took Liverpool 40 years to apologise, too little, too late and it does not make it all ok.

It was a shameful and disgraceful act by Liverpool and as proved by people marking the 50th anniversary it will not be forgotten.
