Mazey Day was a great day out and felt good after a three-year break from the usual colourful processions! The Golowan Festival team ensured that there was something for everyone as this Penzance festival returned in full after the pandemic.
Derek and fellow Cornish MP Cherilyn Mackrory yesterday (28 June) met the Tourism Minister to discuss the adverse impact of holiday lets on Cornwall. The Government has agreed to launch an open call for evidence on the effect of the recent increase in short-term holiday lets.
Derek has launched a campaign to save Penzance ticket office – and he needs the help of train passengers from West Cornwall to show how necessary it is.
Cornwall is cut off from the rail network for much of this week due to strike action. The best that Sir Keir Starmer can do is say the Government wants this massive disruption, which is pathetic, ludicrous, and entirely irresponsible.
I spoke in this morning's debate about our inshore fishing fleet.
At a time when we need to increase the supply of local nutritious food our fishermen are tangled in red tape – rules that do nothing to support sustainability or safety.
