The Cornish Constitutional
Convention
The Cornish Constitutional Convention was formed in November
2000 with the objective of establishing a devolved Assembly for Cornwall (Senedh
Kernow).
The Convention is a cross-party, cross-sector association with
a strong consensus of support both in Cornwall and elsewhere. It is not campaigning
for any form of separatism or independence.
The aim of the Convention is
to establish a form of modern governance which strengthens Cornwall, her role
in the affairs of the country, and positively addresses the problems that have
arisen from more than a century of growing isolation and loss of confidence.
Contrary
to popular English perception, Cornwall is not a county of England - in law it
is a Palatine State

postion
Unlike Scotland & Wales Cornwall never signed the act of union
and never signed away its rights to the Westminster Parliament
The Cornish
- see Cornwall as a seperate Country from England - like Scotland & Wales
- Cornwall is a Celtic nation with a distinct identity - origin and culture.
The
westminster government still refuses to respect the Cornwall as a seperate entity
which is in stark contrast to the European Union which does
