Am I right in saying that the Welsh anthem was one of the first/the first to be sung at a sports occasion and was sung to offer up a celebration of Welsh culture as the haka was doing for New Zealand on that day? Yet when we were in France some of the local population were saying they felt conflicted singing the anthem because it had been taken by the hard right of their country. I would argue that anthem's and other symbols of national identity, just as the words Together Stronger for Wales, are as important and as positive, or negative, as the people owning them want it to be.

But what anthem are you talking about? Are you looking at England play India this morning where the English anthem, English flag and name England are being used to represent England and Wales? "waining of the old colonialism type nationalism" indeed.
