Cornwall tells Boris: Give us our money back

It comes as the government announced its post-Brexit funding plans for regions across the UK.

Appeals to hand Cornwall the money it received in the European Union have been sounded by local press following claims the region has been short-changed to the tune of £168 million.

The Government last week announced its funding plans for regions across the UK.

Critics have argued this does not come close to matching the levels of funding that were distributed before Britons voted to leave the EU, with some aras impacted more than others.

The Cornish Guardian commisioned a special report into post-Brexit funding, revealing some damning home truths.

It found that if the UK had remained in the EU, Cornwall would have got £300 million over the next three years in structural funding.

Instead, the UK Government is giving Cornwall £132 million, or £168 million less than if we’d Remained.

Go figure!

Well – in 2016 you could either vote for a proven, long-standing, guaranteed “levelling up” programme for regional development underwritten by 28 democratic European nations…

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
