Cymru World Cup song - incl Tory bashing

The song is a favourite amongst the fans but the video by the FAW that goes with it is pretty ballsy. Slags off the UK government of the 80s (namechecking Thatcher) amongst other things.

It's a bold move and the FAW now streets ahead of the archaic WRU when it comes to promoting the country. I'm really liking this new attitude though. Long may it last.

Have five stars to share amongst you across the great Welsh nation for explicit public Tory bashing

I added the 'Tory bashing' to the title to get more hits admittedly! But, it is there in the video!

Just watched it for the first time now. Absolutely love it. A snippet of the fight to keep Cymraeg alive amongst the heartache and elation of the football. The penalty miss still gets me to this day.

Someone either doesn’t like you Diafol, or they don’t like the content referencing Cymru. Or there is a couple of Tories voting you one star.
