Truro & Fal Labour

We are an active Labour Constituency Labour Party. We are for the many not the few. We actively oppose cuts in education, cuts in our NHS, austerity and more.

[Labour South West @SWLabourParty]

SAVE OUR SUNDAY POLITICS!
This morning South West Labour MPs, cllrs, former Parliamentary candidates and a former MEP have written to BBC SW boss Stephanie Marshall opposing any cuts to local political programming, including @BBCPoliticsWest , @InsideOutWest & @sun_politics_sw

After a group of veterans started gathering around Truro war memorial during BLM demos (leading to confrontations even in this usually quiet place), BLM activists laid flowers at the memorial today

This is how we tackle the incitement of a culture war

Dismissing those asking for more PPE as 'those with political motives' is itself the politicising move

Labelling honest questions as 'political', and therefore not worthy of listening to, is to silence those most in need right now and their valid concerns at the government

[CLP Nominations @CLPNominations]

Truro and Falmouth CLP nominates:

• Keir Starmer to be leader of the Labour Party

This CLP nominated Yvette Cooper in 2015 and Jeremy Corbyn in 2016.

Pasty Tax
Cuts to Cornish arts funding
No replacement of Objective 1
Fishermen sold off (again) in Boris's Brexit deal
No infrastructural upgrade for Cornwall while HS1, HS2, and HS3 have money poured into them
NHS Cornwall torn apart
Planning relaxed - destroying our landscapes

[Cornwall Young Labour @CornwallYngLab]

The Tories have already lumped Cornwall into a 'South West' funding bloc - even more of a monstrosity than Devonwall.

They are not a party which cares about Cornwall. We are a safe-county and they can afford to lose some votes.

@LornaJStewart @AlfredSoMa @BerwickBabs @Battersby1888 @UKLabour I’m happy to write to the NEC in my personal capacity but I can’t do so on behalf of the CLP executive without discussing it with them first.

[Truro & Fal Labour @TruroFalLabour]

@LornaJStewart @AlfredSoMa @BerwickBabs @Battersby1888 @UKLabour As an individual member of the CLP I don’t want to act unilaterally so can merely relay the information we have. Happy to bring up at an executive committee meeting.

@LornaJStewart @AlfredSoMa @BerwickBabs @Battersby1888 @UKLabour Hi, we can make a variety of adjustments in terms of accessibility. The original tweet was discussing proxy voting.

[Truro & Fal Labour @TruroFalLabour]

@LornaJStewart @AlfredSoMa @BerwickBabs @Battersby1888 @UKLabour the most effective way of tackling. Unfortunately there’s little we can do whilst ensuring our ballot is compliant.

[Truro & Fal Labour @TruroFalLabour]

@LornaJStewart @AlfredSoMa @BerwickBabs @Battersby1888 @UKLabour The NEC is responsible for interpreting legislation and gives us guidance on accessibility which requires the venue to be an accessible one.

We have to follow procedure on voting which makes no provision for proxy ballots unfortunately. Directing complaints to the NEC would be

On the subject on Cornish fisheries being used as a bargaining chip to benefit the city of London; I think the way unaccompanied refugee children have just been used, shows us how low this government will go. Sunday Politics SW this morning...

At Christmas the scale of injustice and inequality is in plain sight, but so is the generosity and solidarity of our communities.

Listen to the man in the video here. If only we had had the chance of having someone like this as Prime Minister. . .

While millions of us were moping around after the election, @CorbynChrist decided to try and change the world for the hungry and vulnerable in the UK. And they're succeeding
