Question for speakers of a UK English dialect or people very familiar with one

[pauamma]

If you're aware of the short form "annie" for "anarchist", what connotations does it have for you?

Speaker of South Wales English, lived in London and the Manchester area: never heard it, not heard much mention of anarchists either except in a historical context.

*nod* Thanks.

The only use of that I remember seeing was in (IIRC) Edmund Cooper's _All Fools' Day_, and (decades after reading it) I got curious enough to ask.
