Scottish nationalists have extended the hand of friendship to fellow Cornish patriots

Message From Kernow Matters To You:

Scottish nationalists have extended the hand of friendship to fellow Cornish patriots.

Members of the Scottish National Party (SNP) have indicated they anticipate with pleasure hearing the case for Cornish autonomy or indeed independence in Parliament.

The remarks by Calum Kerr MP (SNP) the member for Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk, came during a Westminster Hall debate on farming led by Derek Thomas MP for St. Ives in Kernow .

He and fellow Cornwall MPs Steve Double, Scott Mann and Sheryll Murray used the debate as an opportunity to celebrate the proud rural heritage of their home land.

Their contributions were praised by Mr Kerr, who welcomed the Celtic influence in the room.

“This feels like a visit to the Celtic Connections festival.”  “We have the Irish, the Cornish and the Scots; we just need a few more Welsh."

“Taking part in this debate also serves the purpose of making me more familiar with my many wonderful fellow MPs .I look forward to the Westminster Hall debate on Cornish independence.”

The subject of matters Cornish was also briefly touched upon at the 80th SNP General Conference on 15th November, 2014 to which a You Tube link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0dOnAWdrFY&feature=youtu.be
