“What will be lost is the little boy lost, deprived downtrodden poor relations stigma brought on themselves by some Cornish who have been wallowing in it for far too long, independence is what it means, and living up to it is another thing.”

“I was thinking more practical things, (lost, anyway). The British military,(Culdrose etc) and the subsequent job losses and air-sea rescue facilities. British civil service jobs and facilities. We would gain the setting up of emergency services, police and ambulance. But would lose the NHS.”

“Mebyon Kernow are not seeking independence incidentally. They are seeking what Wales, Scotland, the north of Ireland and London has.

But who would ever militarily invade Cornwallanyway? More pie in the sky Tolgus?

Mebyon Kernow, come May, you've got my vote!”

“"But who would ever militarily invade Cornwallanyway? More pie in the sky Tolgus?
Nothing to do with "militarily invade". Jobs lost.”

“A negative question designed to instill fear Tolgus? Independence,if at all,is for the future.These are times to lay down a blueprint for that possible future,and not to talk of what will be lost...Cornwall,unshackled from English imperialism can prosper, and stand equal with all other freedom loving nations.”

“In answer to my question we seem to have produced more questions. And: "Mebyon Kernow are not seeking independence incidentally" Which was never mentioned by me. "A negative question designed to instill fear Tolgus?. Not my intention at all, but it is my right to ask, anyway. So far, no real answers.”

“Slim chance of that "Tolgus", the theme is devolution not revolution, as you probably well know.”

“Slim chance of that "Tolgus", the theme is devolution not revolution, as you probably well know.”

“Yes independence has been watered down somewhat of late, so the nats will go for anything that is going. Cornwall will not lose anything, because regarding work and jobs there isn't a great deal to lose, and the level headed people of Cornwall will see that the nats will not take them down a blind alley.”

“Independence has to be the ultimate aim.although not on MK's agenda,Cornwall and its people must continue to march towards economic freedom.To stop at a devolved halfway house within a UK construct still leaves us totally dependent on the whole for economic survival.We must forever move forwards.To stop,is to fall back into the clutch of English domination..Revolution is not a word i fear..It simply means change.”
