I agree with Tracey. The rest of Britain has the attitude that cornwall is 5 inches big and is merely a holiday resort for the rest of the country.
We have one of the highest rates of living (on a par with London) yet have the lowest wages in the country.
I don't have a problem with people having a holiday down here. But buying holiday homes affects the Cornish people getting on the first rung of the property ladder.
It seems after the Boscastle disaster that the BBC National weather discovered where cornwall was atlast. Cornwall is on the British continent and deserves a talk about and recognition for its history.
A final note:
Well we've covered a broad spectrum in this topic!
