Remembering the crew of the Penlee lifeboat who tragically lost their lives 43 years ago. #RNLI #penlee #cornwall
19 Dec 2024
43 years ago, eight brave crew members @penleelifeboat launched in treacherous conditions to aid the Union Star. Tragically, 16 people lost their lives that night. This is the crew's story told by their children. It's also a tale of hope and community resilience. #RNLI #OTD

Yesterday, I attended the @duolingo event in Parliament. I highlighted the importance of our very own Cornish language, Kernewek, and asked them to include it as an option for learners.

On this day in 2001, 23 years ago, I was part of the delegation that delivered 50,000 declarations calling for a Cornish Assembly to 10 Downing St. Next week, the Government will publish an English Devolution Bill / White Paper. I call for a CORNISH DEVOLUTION BILL.

There is no English county that has its own flag, language, history, tartan, parliament, culture and heritage. So don't call Cornwall an English county. It's an ancient Celtic nation and a duchy.

Cornwall qualified for inclusion in the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities because it's the home of the Cornish people, who still live there.
