Mebyon Kernow – The Party for Cornwall is a political party with a difference
- We exist to win greater self-government for Cornwall through our own legislative Parliament.
- We believe that the historic nation of Cornwall, with its own distinct identity, language and heritage, has the same right to self-determination as the other constituent parts of the UK, such as Scotland and Wales.
- Mebyon Kernow is a progressive party and we are striving to build a confident and outward-looking Cornwall that has the power to take decisions for itself.
Some of the views of Mebyon Kernow are included here as the party represents Cornwall alone for the benefit of Cornish people and allow it to share its views which might be lost due to the higher profile UK national parties.

Another Devonwall battle looms
Another Devonwall battle looms as suggestions that Cornwall be joined with Devon as part of a larger devolved unit. Suggestions have been made by a Tory Cornwall Councillor that this is inevitable. No! The Cornish people will never accept a merged body with Devon. Cornwall is a nation and the Cornish people are a recognised ethnic minority under the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. We call on all Cornwall's MP's and Cornwall Councillors to resist this in the strongest possible manner.

This page will be added to as more information becomes available and the battle lines are drawn.
