BTW - off to Gwithian Sands for a self catering break in a couple of weeks. It's a bit of a schlep from Norwich, but well worth the drive.

Crab sandwiches in Marazion, Pasties from the pasty shop on Market Jew St. Penzance, a really good Chinese in Newlyn, BRING IT ON!

Emmet alert. :-)

What it has to do with PC-dom is that the only person who cannot complain about being victimised is the white working class English male

That is not our fault. That is the fault of white middle class English.

As long as it doesn't include Cornwall I support Englishness.

Yawn, of course it includes Cornwall.

Yawn right back. It shouldn't.


I'm sort of a supporter of Cornish autonomy btw, like 60+% of Cornish people, hence I talk of it alot as I should. As you talk about the EU and libertarianism and of course anti-Cornishness.

Devolution for Cornwall next?....:-)

I view myself as my family heritage rather than the Country I was born in.

Anti-Cornish? Far from it. Anti-ignorant-buffoon is nearer the mark.

I've lived in the Duchy longer than you have! I think I'm entitled to some say over the area where I live.

There is no need to be rude, I'm not sure where ignorance factors into this. This is about opinions.

I don't think you have lived there longer than I have, I've lived there for over 16 years.

And I'm Cornish by ancestory, I'm sure you don't appreciate new immigrants to England deciding it should be part of a federal EU state.
