Cornwall for Europe is an independent, cross-party campaign group, and although we have affiliation to the European Movement, any views expressed on this page are those of Cornwall for Europe and not necessarily those of the European Movement and, as such, any financial responsibility rests with Cornwall for Europe.
Apologies for some issues that we are having currently with the website. It is caused by essential changes that we have had to make and should be resolved soon.
The Cornwall4EU team are always busy in the background, posting on social media, maintaining the website and pages, producing our monthly newsletter and generally keeping in touch with our members.
Our aim of renewing a close relationship with Europe has never diminished, and we are hoping that we will see the renewed energy behind the UK’s will to rejoin the EU continue to grow. Keep an eye on our Events page and our Facebook pages for details of forthcoming events and campaigns, as these will be taking place throughout the year.
“Targeting the manifestos: How we get parties committing to Europe”
A talk and Q&A with Mike Galsworthy on 25 September – and what an great event it was!
Mike’s talk was both interesting and encouraging, and the Q&A went extremely well.
We are hoping to have a video of at least some of the event available soon, and the YouTube link will be posted here and on our Facebook pages.

STALL AT PENZANCE PRIDE – SATURDAY 12 SEPTEMBER – PENZANCE PROMENADE
Cornwall for Europe had a very full day at the Penzance Pride event, but it was well worth it! Full details HERE.
We spoke to lots of lovely people who are as keen as we are to return to the EU, and met some real characters, but we also had conversations with the minority who still believe that Brexit was the right choice. We had a variety of reasons offered as to why leaving the EU was a good idea, but mostly, it boiled down to “we got our sovereignty back”. However, we never seem able to find out exactly how that supposed “sovereignty” has benefitted the UK. 
Our hope is that we have now sown the seeds of doubt, or raised some questions in the minds of at least a few of the EU sceptics.
Would you like to help our group to continue the campaign?

Brexit is here
What next?
Cornwall for Europe believes that Britain’s best future lies in the closest possible relationship with the EU and a continued commitment to the values that it represents: human dignity and human rights, freedom, democracy, equality and the rule of law. Brexit, both in itself and in the way it has been achieved, represents an attempt to move our country away from these fundamental values. We believe that the UK should play its full part in the family of European nations as an EU member state.
We have shown with your help that we can work together and are a force to be reckoned with and along with other organisations, we will continue the fight and make a difference. We will campaign to have as close a relationship as possible with the EU and to rejoin at the soonest opportunity.
