Is cornmeal the same thing as corn starch?

Yes and no. In the UK, the term "cornflour" does indeed often refer to what others know as cornstarch. However, cornflour can also refer to flour made from corn, or corn meal (as opposed to cornstarch, which is only part of the corn flour). While they will both thicken a broth or juice, the corn flour will leave a strong taste. The cornstarch will not leave an aftertaste, which is why it is used as a thickener.

You should just leave it out... or use corn starch. I think it would be best to use corn starch considering that's the closest thing to it! Actually, something even better would potato flour!!! Use this and it will be 99.9% the same. (Potato flour is, as well as potato starch, gluten free!)-Melissa
