A few months ago, I was contacted by the BBC. I was delighted
to receive an invitation to be a panellist on their Any Questions radio show –
the first time that a Mebyon Kernow representative would appear on the show.
I was pencilled in for the recent debate (Friday 28th July)
which took place at St Endellion.
Sadly for me, the BBC took a decision to adjust the guests
on that particular show and I was told that I could not be fitted in. But I have
been promised that I will be on the panel when the show is next in
I did listen to the debate – between Roy Hattersley, Tory MP
Jacob Rees-Mogg, Philip Collins (who writes for the Times and previously wrote
speeches for Tony Blair) and novelist Jessica Mann – and it was frustrating to
be unable to comment on a range of topics close to my heart, such as housing,
economic development, and ethical investment.
However, I will be doing the Friday evening politics slot on
Radio Cornwall. I will be on about 5.40.

Not surprising that you should be shunted out at a late moment. While on Radio anywhere but Cornwall, do take them to task for their incessant County...county...county...England...England...England.
