Absolutely no way he can stop you. He sounds totally irresponsible - name not on your daughter's birth certificate, has never paid a penny towards her upkeep and most importantly, your daughter wants to go to Cornwall with you. Keeping contact with him is OK, but he cannot, repeat cannot, dictate what you can and can't do. He's given up any right to this.
he has never been to court and there is nothing saying he has to see her on x day or anything like that i just always done my best to be fair with him i did ask he for money when she was a baby and he said no he get her things when she is with him and i get them for when she is with me i did not fight him about it as i did not want to upset her but he is saying things to her about me moving like he will get the police and it is making her scared
I know a woman who wanted to split up and take the children 100 miles away. The courts agreed they had no power to stop her, even though she had been married and was in the middle of a divorce. Unless the parent with custody is being completely unreasonable or irresponsible in wanting to go ( say ) to a very distant country, the courts will not interfere. They might be very interested in the fact he does not help maintain the child, though. He is unlikely to go to court, because if he did the courts would almost certainly order him to pay maintenance - even a token amount if he is out of work.
Go, and start your new life as soon as you can, and good luck to you.

As you have been told he CAN NOT stop you moving , he sounds a very disagreeable man you are better off without him.
If you want contact to continue I very strongly suggest that you get it arranged officially through the family court. There are quite a few things to sort out like where and when he can pick her up , how long he can have her, who pays the travel costs. I have never heard of a father making his child remove the clothes he buys her before he sends her home, that is just indefensible, a court would take a very dim view of that . If he gives her clothes then he gives them not lets her 'borrow' them.

Just seen the comment in your last reply .
This has reinforced my view , you are both better off without him !
Just move and make sure he does not know where you are there is NOTHING he can do . If he was stupid enough to go to the police/ court he would end up being forced to pay backdated maintenance for the last 14 years.
