Vitriolic abuse like this really doesn't help any cause, you know. Ends up making you, and the people you claim to represent appear vile, insular and truly xenophobic.

Thank you for bringing this to wider attention, Mr Masterclass. The following vile contribution, which I append below, is not only vitriolic, abusive, insular, truly xenophobic but also brings the people he claims to represent into disrepute. Thank you once again. We are greatly indebted to you for bringing this to general attention.

I agree 100% Liamuk, I and many of my friends of much younger ages than most of the old gits on here consider our self's to be English and are very proud of it.If you had gone into the pubs during the world cup like I did they were packed with people born in Cornwall wearing England shirts and St Georges flags.I have a St Georges flag flying right now out side my house in Truro.And once again I was born in Truro SO WHAT........

Yo, Hunlef - nice to see you the other day. You forgot "illiterate". Even a non-Englishman knows the word is "ourselves", not "our self's" (God - even the aberrant apostrophe. The guy seems to want to illustrate just how poorly educated he is!).

You cut a fine dash on your fiendish machine, Hunlef -have a geek sometime at me on new pure white charger (who also likes his ale).

We have had many discussions here where the idea that someone could determine and declare their own nationality*. If someone who is born in Cornwall declares themselves to be English, is this wrong? If so, how is it different from someone declaring they are Cornish not English?


(I accept that there are ways of doing this, and that the recent crop of "I am English" posters may not have done themselves any favours by their posting style.)

Unregistered User thankyou stroppygob, What's people's problem with what I won't to be.I was born here and so was my parents and they have never been anti English and have always bought me England shirts and seen my England flags.I don't care if people are pro Cornish or pro Sweedish does it matter,I just state that myself and many others I know of the same age are not anti English and are always supporting England at sport.At college during the World cup about 80% of the students all had England shirts on,are you all going to dis-own these people as well as me.

Quotewhat I won't to be


Classic stuff, my temptation to call you an ill-educated English chav is all too strong.

No-one is denying anyone the right to be English. Go ahead fly your flags and wear your tshirts.

What I object to is people like I_am_english_born_without_a_dictionary and Lame-excuse-iek telling me that I am not Cornish or that I 'need to get a grip' and that I am an 'old git'.

I am not an old git, I've got a Cornish flag tattooed on my arm and I am born Cornish and will be Cornish until I die.

Nothing, especially, a few ignorant comments from city wideboys, will take that away from me.

Grow up and forget the past, hang on I thought I was an old git?

The past has some reflection on how i feel but deep down I am Cornish and this is how I feel now.

I bet you hang out in the car park at the back of L2.

I thought I would bring this posting to forum member's attention, just in case my old mate, Mr Masterclass, misses it. Thanks to him, we were acquainted with the affects of:

Can this proud Englishman not spell turnip? From the quality of his output on this forum, I think he holds turnips in high regard. However, that could be construed as being insulting to turnips!

nationalism is all about the pride you have
in your self and your country it is about self determination it is about democracy it is about the history and culture that you where brought up in

Those that talk nationalism down in both scotland and cornwell have no pride in there country and have no self worth thinking that they can only get by with the help of others in other words they are quislings that are to week to think for themselfs

To be a nationalist is to want the best for your country and your people anyone who can not see this is blind and those that argue against it alway's revert to smear stories and name calling as can be seen in some of the earlier posts that is when you know you are winning
