![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Among the general French population, 30% of respondents expressed a favourable view on Corsican independence. By 2012, polls showed support for independence at 10-15%, while support for increased devolution within France was as high as 51% (of which two-thirds would prefer "slightly more" rather than "much more" autonomy). However, only 19% and 42% of those who voted respectively for Gilles Simeoni's autonomist list Femu a Corsica and Jean-Guy Talamoni's separatist Corsica Libera were, according to polling, in favour of independence. The main separatist party, Corsica Libera, achieved 9.85% of votes in the 2010 French regional elections. Corsican nationalism is a nationalist movement in Corsica that advocates more autonomy for the island, if not outright independence from France. ![]()
