		Scottish independence is the name given to a political movement of Scottish people seeking the creation of an independent sovereign state of Scotland, separate from the United Kingdom, leaving only Wales, England, and Northern Ireland, in the union.
		This empowered the independence movement with greater leverage for the advancement of pro-independence agendas in the House of Commons where the Labour Party now led a minority government in a pact with the Liberal Party.
		Further progress of the independence movement was stalled when the Scottish National Party supported a vote of no confidence and forced a General Election in 1979 which gave victory to the noted Unionist, Margaret Thatcher, as prime minister of the United Kingdom at the head of a Conservative government.

	The Cornish in Latin America
		Some radical improvements in pumps were probably introduced to Cornish mines by German miners in the sixteenth century and henceforth developed.
		The mining industry was believed by most governments to be the cornerstone of economic success and they looked to Britain, the ‘work shop of the world’ to provide not only the necessary capital, but also the technology and skilled labour to kick start the once great mining industry.
		It was against this backdrop that Richard Trevithick migrated to Cerro de Pasco in Peru in 1816 to overcome problems encountered in the assembly and operation of the engines he had exported there in 1814, and the mushrooming of British financed mining companies across Latin America in the mid 1820s.

	Origins of the Hunter Labour Movement. By Dr Bob James
		As it gathers speed, all obstacles to its progress must be removed from the track and passengers given a clear, one-sided view: The labour movement has, in addition, seen itself as being in opposition, not to the forward movement of 'progress', but to the fruits of that advance not being equitably distributed.
		In telling the story of 'the labour movement', they could do as Ian Turner and Labour Historians generally have done, which is to include just those events, practices or organisations which match in aims or in timing the pre-determined outcome as set out in the socialist formula.
		Christian fortitude and forbearance were to the fore at the pit-head and rather anxiously applauded by onlookers as the AA Company, from April to October 1862, purged its pits of all combinations and tried to force acceptance by the colliers of the Masters and Servants Act.

		The language of independent Britain, which emerged in this period, was not a language whose structure had been changed by Latin (as among the Iberians): it was British Celtic (P-Celtic) or Brithonic, the ancestor tongue of Welsh, Breton and Cornish.
		It was probably this victory which made Cornwall finally a part of England, for there is no evidence of any later movements for Cornish independence, and fifty years after the battle of Hingston Down King Alfred's will deals as freely with land in Cornwall as with any of the ancient possessions of his house.

		Using as a basis for discussion a study of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875-1912), the Anglo-fl composer and supporter of the Pan-African movement, this paper examines the appropriateness of ideas of socio-technical and cultural hybridity for a study of the cultural politics of musical virtuosity.

	Cornish Independence - A good idea?
		Personally I don't see as much of a case for independence for Cornwall as there clearly is for Wales.
		Of course its a good idea, but the only Cornish nationalists i know do not see independence as realistic, they want a Cornish Assembly (they see that as achievable and i agree) as the first route to giving power over Cornwall to Cornish people.
		First off ill say that yes of course i support that cause but realisticly its way beyond reach for independence, i think the best to hope for is a similar thing to the lake district and make sure that the cornish get homes and no one else.

		I don't know any Cornish people myself but I suspect they are getting pretty fucked off with all the wealthy Londoners moving there buying up all the houses and shops as if they own the fucking place, just like here in Cymru (although in my end of Cymru it's mostly northerners).
		Theres a Cornish guy in work and he says things are really bad in Cornwall-theres no way local youngsters can afford the silly house prices caused by all the rich incomers-so they all move out to London and elsewhere.
		At the moment Cornwall is part of the 'South-West Region' of the UK, meaning that all the major economic decisions relating to Cornwall are decided in Bristol, not in Kernow, its absolutely disgraceful.

		Not one candidate as far as I know was elected on a nationalist ticket (possible exception of Mr Biscoe) for County Council.
		Hardly a ringing endorsement for the party which you have had sympathy towards, at some time in the not too distant past, and a clear demonstration that the Cornish people have been numerically overwhelmed by in-comers who do not share the MK view of "independence".
		More's the reason for looking at the constitutional issues in regard to the future of Kernow, combined with those areas which would be applied to governance when the Cornish are declared to be a national minority.
