One word.

Infrastructure.

Have you ever tried GETTING to most of Cornwall?

And don't you DARE say the Cornish are lazy; other posters have already said there's a "workforce that has been screwed over so many times they'll work for anyone who'll offer them half decent pay and conditions."

I said nothing about scrounging, you arrogant toerag, I talked about making a viable economy for Cornwall that doesn't have to rely on visiting home counties twats with more money than sense.

And finally, your very language gives the game away when you say "Perhaps a better option is that we allow Cornwall to separate".

Your use of "we" and "allow" says it all.

Stay away, your type are not welcome.
