So Mebyon Kernow has produced a new leaflet and I am sure the Cornish Stannary Parliament has a leaflet as well because i handed out a load at the Penryn town fair this year, but what about the Cornish Constitutional Convention or other Cornish groups?
Can we the dogs bodies get our hands on these leaflets for any or all of the above to put them through letter boxes in our areas and to give to our friends?
If i was given a load i would be more than happy to do a bit of walking!
Joking aside, the Cornwall Info bus should be on the road in the next week or so. It's having some work done on it this thursday to get an MOT then off it will go around Cornwall. Anyone with pro-Cornish leaflets/flyers is very welcome to drop them at the bus to be given out on route. We will also be looking for suggestions and ideas on where to take it each day and there will a live link-up to the net so you can both locate it at any particular time and also participate in live "web to street" communications via the pc screen playing in the window.
I will knock doors if necessary, when we first started our business I visited and spoke to 40 hoteliers in two hours, don't think I could keep that pace up, but it goes to show what you can do if you put your mind to it, or if there were a few of us. The first time I put leaflets through doors I was about 8, I typed them up on my typewriter to advertise a jumble sale I was organising in a friends garden.
Cornwall's tax payers will be understandably furious to learn that the county council is planning to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds to of our money producing a magazine to promote the work of the local authority. They will even be angrier when they realise that the primary purpose of the publication to be delievered to all homes in Cornwall to improve the way the council is perceived by residents. In other words to create positive spin!
When council tax bills are spiralling, services are under threat and demands on the council are increasing almost by the week what possible justiification can there be foir this costly and unnecessary venture? It is the councils job to provide first-rate services for everybody not to get into the publishing business to improve its own public image.
