[The residents of England's windswept, wave-lashed southwest are Europe's newest official minority.
The British government said Thursday Cornish people have been given the same status as Scots, Welsh and
Irish — the U.K.'s other Celtic peoples — under EU law protecting national minorities.
Residents of Cornwall traditionally spoke a Celtic language similar to that of France's Brittany region.
Cornwall is famous for its seafaring heritage and for the Cornish pasty, a popular lunch food.]

You just ain't special

[smudgie]

Always thought they were a bit different. :laugh:

[joeysteele]

My apologies in advance to anyone from Cornwall but in my view this is ridiculous.
The others,Scotland,Ireland and Wales are wholly different countries, Cornwall is just part of England no matter what it may think it is or hope to be.

This pampering of places gets on my nerves.

The arrogance of the Cornish people knows no bounds, they seriously believe it's a separate country! :joker:

They are different, they are Celts like the Scots and Welsh and the Irish. The wave of effectively Germans has swept into England and banished the indigenous population to the Western edges.

More like we should send back all you fecking krauts back to the fatherland

Nevermind, we'll all be speaking Russian soon :/

Meh, it's just a meaningless vote grab.
