Question Time is a news and current event show.

Our very own Duke has been in the news a lot over the last few days regarding his profits and income. The Duchy has been mentioned frequently in the news and in papers recently.

With the recent uproar over the MP's expenses a question about the Duchy, money and the future of Cornwall is there for the taking?Smile

How about, "in light of the MPs expenses scandal, why is the Duchy of Cornwall exempt from the Freedom of Information Act, and why won't it reply to questions regarding the history of the Duchy and the constitutional status of Cornwall ?" Smile

As much as I would love to see it, I bet not one question reflects the views which we all stand for. The BBC are past masters at control freakery. Much talk, no action.

Well I can totally understand the fraustration about our own Dick Cole not being on the panel,,,this is/was one of my desires also,, and I cant see why Leanne Wood has been invited to sit on the panel,,,,,and so that will be my one of my questions,,,,,


Why has Dick Cole from Mebyon Kernow not been invited to sit on the panel,,,,and is this just another epsisode of Predjudice in action against the People of Cornwall….


I have e-mailed Dick to say that I'm sorry and surprised that he is not on the panel,,,,,I take it he was NOT Invited?? but I have nothing to confirm this as yet!!


Rest assured people any chance I get to speak up for Cornwall I willl,,,,,,,Given the chance,,,,,problem maybe is that they are not there to discuss cornwall but only national things, which in my opinion is wrong as the show is being held in Cornwall, I believe that part of each show wherever it is held should be set aside to air local issue's

I've just scanned through it on sky+… seemed like a wast of time, bar a couple of brief points near the end e.g. the duke's income.

I emailed them twice around two weeks ago suggesting Dick Cole or John Angarrack. No reply.

Did anyone see that ginger cat??? It ran past the back of the panel. My eyes do not lie!

Yes there indeed was a Ginger Cat walking around, it came down past me, went through all the camera crews legs, and then walked around the back of the panel,,,,,,,some said it was Gordaon Brown in disguise??

Because it's a NATIONAL show… not everything is a conspiracy

Ad the lady in the audience said: "Shouldn't Prince Charles give some of those millions back to Cornwall which needs it", and Dimbleby said: "We're out of time."  How very predictable.  I wonder why the Beeb chose Ms Golddigger?  And didn't choose a properly Cornish MP, such as Andrew George.  And while the Plaid Cymru lady spoke a lot of sense, I think we'd all have liked to see Dick Cole there, especially as MK whupped Labour out of sight in the local elections.  I think I only heard about 3 Cornish voices all night, as well.

Is the Beeb prejudiced against the Cornish?  Are there bridges across the Tamar?
