SUMMARY:
GOVERNMENT
SET ASIDE TWO WHOLE DAYS TO CONSTRUCT MEANS AND METHODS OF PREVENTING THE
CORNISH FROM BENEFITING FROM AN INTERNATIONAL TREATY DESIGNED TO PROTECT
MINORITY CULTURES.
BACKGROUND:
“Today equality of opportunity remains
vital.”
Secretary of State Ruth Kelly, 27th Nov 2006
THE UK GOVERNMENT ARE
RESISTING AT ALL COSTS ATTEMPTS BEING MADE BY: MP’S, CULTURAL ORGANISATIONS,
NGO’S, CORNWALL COUNTY COUNCIL AND THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE, TO INCLUDE THE CORNISH
WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK CONVENTION FOR THE PROTECTION OF NATIONAL
MINORITIES.
TENS YEARS OF GOVERNMENT
INTRANSIGENCE FORCED CORNISH CIVIL RIGHTS GROUP ‘CORNWALL 2000’ TO LAUNCH
PROCEEDINGS EARLIER THIS YEAR AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT IN THE UK HIGH
COURT.
IT NOW COMES TO LIGHT, FROM
PAPERS SENT TO CORNWALL 2000, THAT DURING FEBRUARY 2007, GOVERNMENT LEGAL
ADVISORS SPENT 14 HOURS, OR TWO WHOLE DAYS, WITH SECRETARY OF STATE RUTH
KELLY AND HER CIVIL SERVANTS DISCUSSING WAYS AND MEANS OF KEEPING THE CORNISH
OUT OF THE CONVENTION.
FOR HOLDING THESE
DISCUSSIONS, AND FOR SUBMITTING A LARGELY INACCURATE, CONTRADICTORY AND
MISLEADING DEFENCE PAPER TO COURT COMPOSED MOSTLY OF PREVIOUSLY CIRCULATED
STATEMENTS AND MATERIAL CUT A PASTED FROM OTHER WEBSITES, RUTH KELLY IS ASKING
THE HIGH COURT TO ORDER ‘CORNWALL 2000’ TO PAY TO THE GOVERNMENT, AS A MERE
OPENER, £6,500 FOR THE TIME AND TROUBLE TAKEN TO KEEP THE CORNISH OUT OF THE
CONVENTION.
GOVERNMENT CANNOT WIN BY
FAIR MEANS, SO IT IS ATTEMPTING TO FINANCIALLY BLUDGEON A MINORITY GROUP
INTO GIVING UP ITS ATTEMPT TO OBTAIN EQUAL TREATMENT.
“The Convention shall be applied in good faith and in a spirit of understanding and tolerance”.
Framework Convention Article 1
