Oh joy, "We also recognise that Britons represent the first victims of English-speaking colonialism and Brittonic was the first victim of its linguistic homicide/genocide. "

Sorry but what about the language of those who were there first (or at least before the celts) and were the victims of Celtic Linguistic homicide/genocide?

I think "cobblers" is the ancient Brittonic word you are looking for. "Tosh" may also fit?

I'm waiting for an apology from the Welsh government for the ethnic cleansing carried out by the Brittonic invaders against the peace-loving peoples of these sceptred isles....

A strange thing to emerge from a prison in Arizona.

I have an interesting and informative comment to add to this discussion, but you know what, I'll pass, and save it for somewhere more political.
