Nick Clegg meets Keep Cornwall Whole campaign tomorrow
The Keep Cornwall Whole campaign, fighting measures in the Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill which would destroy the political boundary with Devon, has a 30-minute meeting with deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg after Prime Minister's Questions tomorrow. The KCW delegation will include Adam Killeya, Dick Cole, Bert Biscoe, Jen Forbes, Malcolm Brown and others - probably a few of Cornwall's MPs. Will this result in the amendment that stops a Devonwall constituency? We might know by tomorow afternoon.

Those people who are attending this meeting live in Cornwall, which is the area involved. There are those who live in Devon, who also object to these ridiculous cross border constituencies.
There are many good reasons why such constituencies should not occur, apart from the boundary issue, but your hatred of anything that can, even remotely, be connected to nationalism, is causing you to keep your blinkers on, and making you miss the glaringly obvious.
Most people do not want these constituencies.

This isn't a campaign led by 'troublemakers'. It is a cross-party campaign that includes MPs, Councillors, and leading members of Cornish political life. I can't think of many people who support a Devonwall constituency from any shade of Cornish political background.

Hardly representative, more likely self preservation

Which list are you referring to?
I see 2 "lists" on the link you provided, 1/ "Latest News", & 2/ "Recent Comments".
At the moment, on the "Recent Comments" "list", John Angarrick does appear at the top, would that be because his was the most "recent" of the "Comments". In fact, it would be more correct to say that he was, at the moment, at the bottom of the list:- https://keepcornwallwhole.org/?p=51
Do you actually read what you post, or are you just intent on stirring your usual pot of hatred and misdirection?

Breaking the chains: propaganda, censorship, deception and the manipulation of public opinion in Cornwall
Hardly in the same league as Richard Dawkins, but certainly confirming the existence of the selfish gene
