Lovely commemoration of the 80 years of VE day in #Penryn this evening. Let us remember the sacrifice and hardships of those who fought against fascism across Europe at a moment when the hateful beast is rearing it's ugly head again. Ra vo skañv douar Kerne-Veur evite. #Kernow #bzhg #VE80 #WW2

🗣️ To speak is to exist. Komz evit bezañ. Half the voices that once spoke Breton have fallen silent in just 6 years. Across Europe, unique languages and cultures are vanishing. We must act! EFA demands true linguistic equality. #ToSpeakIsToExist 🔗🗞️https://bit.ly/4iuZNjE

Labour might wonder why, less than a year into a new government promising “change”, people are giving up on it in droves. So let me help it out with a few clues. 1. Cutting disability benefits 2. Freezing Local Housing Allowance. 3. Maintaining the cruel, Malthusian two-child benefit cap .... 🧵

Why does Starmer's Labour Party seem determined to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? Because it hates the left more than it fears the far right. As a result it won't do the "left" things so many of its potential supporters are crying out for.

Meur ras bras / A big thank you to all the voters and campaigners who supported me and Mebyon Kernow. We didn't achieve a great score but 8% is sumething we can build upon. We had a difficult context with a strong Tory vote and Reform campaigning on UK issues (and lies)... 1/4

My only consolation from today's election results is that some Councillors (I know from personal experience) who work tirelessly for their communities and Cornwall got re-elected. So Congratulations to @myrghanyeth.bsky.social Dick Cole, Julian German and Paul White.

My commiserations for the good people of Constantine, Mabe and Mawnan who didn't want Reform elected. They will be represented by the second-home version of a Councillor who lives dozens of miles away from their patch, clueless about the area and CC. MK will be here to stand up against English nats

Lots to digest this evening after a very long day at Carn Brea witnessing the count. Feeling a bit slimy after what I saw, NGL. A few good news for MK though with all our young candidates elected to TCs bar one, and a big recruitment drive for our youth branch Kernow Youth. Feeling very optimistic!

Reform UK is simply a glorified copy of MAGA in the US….. #FarageRiots and his “Black shirts” won’t need 100 days to destroy this Country.

The Labour Government still refuses to tax the rich because they say they want to encourage them to invest the money in the UK economy. Where is the evidence that they will invest in a way that benefits the majority rather than to increase their own obscene wealth.

"Cornwall has such beautiful heritage & culture, let’s NOT allow a Devonwall or SW mayor that will smother and take ownership of us. Let’s make the people of Cornwall our priority and deliver progress." - Donte Ragan for Redruth Central, Carharrack & StDay #Kernow2025 #VoteMK #Kernow #Cornwall

Re-sharing this gem of an article with the BBC and Telegraph worrying about second home owners. We need more of this to bring back affordable prices and more of the empty housing stock on the market. Cornwall deserves #HousingJustice. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I paid a visit to the "Women of Cornwall" exhibition on its last day at Penryn Arts Centre. The landmark project celebrates significant women of Cornwall, breaking away from centuries of over-representation of men. You can access the online exhibition at www.artcentrepenryn.org/womenofcornw...

Cornwall has borne a disproportionate weight of the disastrous austerity policy with endless cuts shrinking public services to the bone. Ambulances are queueing at Treliske and schools are desperate for funding. Westminster has failed us and we will work to restore their misdeeds #AusterityMeasures

Another session of canvassing and leafleting yesterday in #Mawnan, with really good discussions with local residents. The crumbling NHS services & the poor state of roads were among the top subjects, while our independence towards Westminster parties HQs is seen very positively! #kernow2025 #VoteMK

15 years of Tory and Labour austerity have failed to solve the economic crisis and the mounting debt. Cornwall has borne the brunt of these cuts. This inept strategy needs to cease. Our communities deserve decent public services to restore the economy and a proper living standard. #kernow2025
