Reform UK have just said they will BAN the #Cornish flag from being flown over, on or in council buildings.
@CornwallCouncil is now a no overall control English council.
Today marks the 25th anniversary of the launch of the Declaration for a Cornish Assembly campaign, which was backed by over 50,000 people. The campaign for a greater self-government for Cornwall continues.
We are pleased to report that councillors on the unitary authority today overwhelmingly backed a motion to support devolution on a Cornwall footprint and oppose a South West Peninsula Mayoral Strategic Authority being imposed on Cornwall.

COMMENT ON WHITE PAPER 3
Now is not the time to be defeatist. Now is the time for one & all to come together to campaign & demand greater powers for Cornwall through a meaningful democratic settlement, similar to those secured in Wales & Scotland.
Cornish Devolution Bill now.
Ridiculous that reps. of the nation of Cornwall have not been invited to today's meeting of the Council of Nations & Regions. This breaches the Govt’s obligations to the Cornish through the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities.

Mebyon Kernow is calling on all politicians serving communities to the west of the Tamar to actively oppose the “Great South West” project undermining Cornwall achieving greater powers for itself.

🚨Cornwall Council leader calls for the creation of a Minister for Cornwall
As a national minority, we have the same rights to recognition and inclusion as Wales and Scotland.
A Minister for Cornwall will ensure that Cornish national minority status is respected in Government.
We're proud of you as well Ben. Well done to you and @AndrewGeorge_ for taking the oath in Kernewek. Splann! Have no doubt you both will do a great job for Cornwall and ensure Kernow comes first.

On the day that the Prime Minister confirmed his support for a Council of the Regions and Nations, it was great to see Liberal Democrat MPs @AndrewGeorge_ and @BenMaguireNC asserting Cornish nationhood by taking their oaths in Cornish.
This morning, the Prime Minister confirmed that the UK Government will establish a "council for regions and nations." MK has called for meaningful devolution and the nation of Cornwall is represented on the ‘council.’

MK would like to congratulate Cornwall’s six new MPs on their election to Westminster & express the hope that they will be able to work together to secure proper devolution / greater democratic parity with our fellow Celtic nations of Scotland and Wales.

Lib Dem Ben Maguire has taken North Cornwall constituency from the Conservatives.
Cornwall now has three Labour MPs and 2 Lib Dem MPs - with the South East Cornwall result still to come.
