This is a marvellous bit of tongue in cheek fun poked at the politically correct bureaucrats in the EU by West Country MEP Graham Booth.

Judging from the response from one or two making posts about this little speech in the EU parliament they just don't get the joke, but many of the points Graham makes are highly relevant to the people he represents. I wasn't aware that the average IQ-level of those living in Cornwall varied from other district in the UK, as also suggested by some?

@ThePjl20 I attended his funeral the other day and judging by the number of people there Graham was a very popular and well liked man. One thing I didn't realise is that he was a rally driver in his youth and had a passion for cars and poetry.

I'm American and I understood all but a few words, and some things sounded rather American to me. Guess that's the connection between that region and early settlers in the US. But I gather that this accent is to some English ears what a heavy Tennessee accent is to my Midwestern US ears. It's nice to hear other countries' regional accents because you don't usually have any stereotypes or biases about them.

@Sebbio149 ; You write an imbecilic statement like that and call him an idiot! Ha ha The Joke my friend is on you.

@zoe23ellen : Cornwall is part of the UK, the UK is NET contributor to the EU. I contest you are either plain dumb, a LibDem supporter (much the same as my first assumption) or you simply write comments without any subject knowledge!

Lovely Cornish accent, great chap and a loyal UKIP MEP, a very sad loss R.I.P Graham.

@AaronCherr It's said that the accents of SW England are closest to Old English. Devon is the seafaring county (home of the Navy), so little surprise that the accent has travelled

@sarahkirky You're proof that the brian washing has worked. anyone in the UK that believes the EU is a good idea. is in the pay of the EU or brianwashed.
