Coastguards rescue six people “in Cornwall” cut off by tide. There are many sound reasons why Cornwall should be disaggregated from BBC News coverage of ‘the south west’ - high amongst them is a woeful ignorance of the area - Woolacombe is in Devon. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The people of today’s Cornwall were trading tin with the people of today’s Palestine (Levant) some 4,000 years ago. Such trade with the eastern Mediterranean continued into the sixth century CE - with unprecedented amounts of pottery once holding wine and oil found at Tintagel #Palestine

@jaynekirkhammp.bsky.social is right. Let’s continue to fight for the funding, powers, recognition and respect Kernow deserves from the UK Government, and not simply argue our case from within the paradigm of an ‘English’ Devolution Bill. Would Wales? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Would Scotland? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Cornish MP Perran Moon stands up in Parliament and declares “I am Cornish, not English”

Cornish Labour MP Perran Moon: "I'm first and foremost a Cornishman. My party is very, very important to me, but the prime minister made very clear in the run-up to the election that it was Party first, country second. My country is Cornwall" #KernowFirst www.itv.com/news/westcou...

On this day in 1644, the Cornish Royalist Army defeated the Parliamentarians at the Battle of Lostwithiel. It would be the heaviest Parliamentarian defeat of the entire Civil War, with thousands taken prisoner, and thousands more chased out of Cornwall by an angry populace.

Cornish MPs have called on Historic England to ensure that its Cornish sites reflect Cornwall’s national history and status. They say Cornwall’s heritage is not “a subset of English history”. Even better would be to call for all Cornish heritage sites to be run from Cornwall.

The Prayer Book Rebellion, 1549. 10% of the population of our country was put to death by the government of the day, a deathblow given to Kernewek, links with our sister country, Breizh severed and the English language forced on small country whose majority did not speak it. #Kernow #Cornwall

Plenys an gwari are unique to Cornwall - found nowhere else on Earth. They are integral to Cornish culture and language. Were such sites in England, and integral to English culture, it would be inconceivable that they could be impacted by development. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The final battle of the Anglo-Cornish (Prayer Book) War took place on this day in 1549 in Sampford Courtenay. Over 1,000 Cornish & Devon men were killed and many taken prisoner. Following this defeat, forces of the English crown entered Cornwall and murdered many hundred Cornish.

On this day in 2004, I was rescued by helicopter from the roof of a cafe, and my car was washed out to sea when flooding destroyed much of Boscastle and affected other settlements in north-east Cornwall. Miraculously, no lives were lost 🌊🚁🚗 hmcoastguard.uk/news/devasta...

It baffles me that, as a society, we seem to have decided that the epitome of the Good Life — the highest of all aspirations — is to drive around like a twat in a bloated SUV with a stupid personalised number plate.

On this day in 1549, one of the darkest events in Cornish history occurred during the Anglo-Cornish (Prayer Book) War. Some 900 unarmed Cornish prisoners, taken following the battles of Woodbury and Clyst St Mary, were systematically murdered by forces of the English government.

#NEWS: 📣 Cornwall Council Leader Leigh Frost has called for official recognition of Cornwall as the UK’s fifth nation - not as a slogan, but as a statement of fact. 💬 “Cornwall has the language, the culture, the identity. We have pride, resilience, and community spirit.”

Cornish devolution is hardly a radical, new idea. It’s a reflection of the distinct, separate identity of a British peoples. @annagelderdmp.bsky.social @noahlawmp.bsky.social @jaynekirkhammp.bsky.social @perranmoonmp.bsky.social

Following their two armed risings against his rule in 1497, Henry VII issued the Cornish a Charter of Pardon on this day in 1508. The Charter reaffirmed and strengthened the rights of the Cornish Stannary Parliament, granting it powers to ignore laws made in Westminster 〓〓

The Battle of Lansdowne took place near Bath #OnThisDay in 1643. One of the bloodiest battles of the First Civil War, it led to the death of many of the Cornish Royalist Army including the much-loved commander Sir Bevil Grenville.
