Cornwall is part of England and it most likely always will be.
The nationalist feeling is popular and clearly not a minority it is just not intense. Nationalism doesn't have to be anti-English and this is the problem you people have, your feelings come from some emotional appeal to a glorious England and you seem to take autonomy for Cornwall as a threat to that.
