 | | A political party, Mebyon Kernow, the MK, or 'Sons of Cornwall', has been formed in order to attempt to reassert Cornish independence, and although increasingly the flag of St. Piran is seen across Cornwall at protests and demonstrations, the party has not achieved significant success at the ballot box. |
 | | In 1841 there were nine hundred (division)s of Cornwall, East, Kerrier, Lesneweth, Penwith, Powder, Pydar, Stratton, Trigg and West. |
 | | Saint Piran is the more popular of the two; his emblem (a vertical white cross on a fl background) is recognised as the flag of Cornwall, and his day (March 5) is celebrated by Cornish people around the world. |
