0:17:21 > 0:17:25- ..but some people - have yet to awaken.
0:17:26 > 0:17:31- When that bomb detonated - it was a slap in the face.
0:17:31 > 0:17:39- Our respectful Welsh society - or so-called devouts...
0:17:39 > 0:17:45- ..were shaking in their boots.
0:17:45 > 0:17:50- We received a greater response - from these respectful people...
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- ..who were alleged pacifists - than people from across the border.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03- You discuss your upbringing - and emigrating to Canada.

0:18:26 > 0:18:34- Going on the run in Ireland sounds - romantic but it certainly wasn't.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37- It was extremely tough time.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39- Is there anything you regret?
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- No, I've been asked this before.

0:18:57 > 0:19:05- You have to balance everything out - and I wouldn't change anything.

0:19:24 > 0:19:32- I'm still a radical thinker - as it's in my blood to be radical.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- My father suffered hardship...
0:19:37 > 0:19:42- ..so I understand - the struggles of the common folk...
0:19:43 > 0:19:51- ..not only on the land - but in our industrial areas.
0:19:51 > 0:19:56- I can identify with these people.

0:20:02 > 0:20:08- I question our politician's motives - for the common folk and nation...
0:20:08 > 0:20:12- ..and it's all about themselves.
0:20:12 > 0:20:17- It might not sound fair but my aim - isn't to be popular in politics.
0:20:17 > 0:20:24- Your book makes an interesting read - and would make a fantastic film.
