Because they have a unique heritage and which to be something special.Most Cornish consider themselves Cornish over English. Why not anyway? Gov't closer to the people is always better, the only nay-sayers seem to be people with a complex about England's glory and wishing it to be as large and strong as possible.

It comes as no surprise to me that yet another non-English person is seeking to stir the pot of controversy here in England. The so called Cornish Independence movement is yet another German inspired initiative designed via the EU to divide England. Here's a link: Federal Union of European Nationalities FUEN PRESIDIUM

NB Who purports to represent GB (yes, GB!) from Ivy Cottage, Cornwall with a Plymouth, ENGLAND, Post Code! [Wot no representation for North Britain?]

Here's another link to remove any doubts about the connection: FUEN, The European Parliament and Living Diversity :: The Rest of the World :: Cornwall 24
