This Budget starts rebuilding our Cornish economy. Cornwall has a leading role to play in the UK’s economic future, and the new Kernow Industrial Growth Fund puts us front and centre. To hear more about what the Budget means for local people in South East Cornwall, watch the video 👇👇👇

The Great Storm ended on this day in 1703. The people of Stratton in north Cornwall spent £17 repairing the tower of their church, which had been damaged in the storm.

Where it all started: 2001 Choughs return to Kernow 🐦‍⬛ 2002 Cornish language protected 🗣️ 2006 World Heritage Site status ⚒️ 2012 Queen’s barge flies flag 〓〓 2014 Piran’s Oratory uncovered 💀 2014 National minority status 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒

🚨🚨 Huge news for Cornwall! After months of pressing Ministers, the Government has offered a bespoke devolution deal that respects our national minority status, with NO joint authority with Devon - and hopefully no requirement for a directly elected mayor.

#OnThisDay in 1645, Sir Richard Grenville wrote a letter to Prince Charles, Duke of Cornwall proposing the withdrawal of Kernow from the Civil War by establishing it as a de facto independent polity. 380 years of calls for Cornish devolution! 〓〓

With the Government setting a 50,000t pa domestic lithium production target as part of the Critical Minerals Strategy launched today, Cornwall takes centre stage in Britain's journey to becoming a clean energy superpower.

When Kernow last enjoyed a level of autonomy (the Stannary Parliament - last convened in 1753) it was entirely because of our critical mineral industry (Stannary from stannum = tin) If we are to truly benefit from a renewed mineral industry we MUST again have a level of devolved responsibility.

Today is kept as one of the feasts of St Cuby - a Cornish born saint of royal blood who declined the crown of Cornwall to live as a man of God, building churches at Tregony and Duloe in Kernow 〓〓 He also travelled to Eire 🇮🇪 and Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 establishing a church on Ynys Gybi.

On this day in 2002, the UK Government officially recognised the Cornish language under Part II of the @coe.int European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages. Today, Cornish is the only British Celtic language not protected under Part III of the Charter…for how much longer?

Child poverty is a 'crisis that cannot be ignored' It is also inexcusable in the world’s sixth largest economy. If central government hasn’t found a solution these past 50 years, power must be devolved to address this travesty www.bbc.com/news/article...

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? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
