Cornish nationalism is a term that refers to a cultural, political and social movement based in Cornwall (Cornish; Kernow), which has been administered as part of England, within the United Kingdom, but had never been formally incorporated into England via an Act of Union. It is usually based on three general arguments.....
a) That Cornwall has a Celtic cultural identity separate from that of England, and that the Cornish people have a national, civic or ethnic identity separate from that of English people;
b) That Cornwall should be granted a degree of devolution or autonomy, usually in the form of a Cornish national assembly;
c) And that Cornwall is legally a territorial and constitutional Duchy with the right to veto Westminster legislation, not merely a county of England, and has never been formally incorporated into England via an Act of Union
