Tomorrow we’ll find out if Penzance is on the way to another one of these for a local Olympian – Helen Glover is again competing in the finals of the coxless pairs, and Gulval’s Deborah Fleming plays her first Rugby 7s games against the Russian team and New Zealand. Good luck! https://t.co/5c7yRRFCvy — PolitiTweet.org

I have been meeting councillors and businesses to discuss a joined-up strategy for Mounts Bay as a whole. Now the dry dock’s future is guaranteed, we need to build on that to bring jobs and investment everywhere from Marazion to Mousehole. https://t.co/iFxXyexrSk — PolitiTweet.org

In 2018 the Government banned the sale of elephant ivory. Now the Environment Department is holding a consultation on whether the sale of ivory from other animals - hippopotamuses, narwhals and walruses like Wally - should be banned.

Learner drivers in West Cornwall are waiting far too long to get a driving test – because the test centre in Penzance is only open for two days a week. I'm pushing the DVSA to reopen fully, but you can join the campaign for more examiners and more slots: https://t.co/0vf7ZXgMMB — PolitiTweet.org

NHS staff and healthcare workers often find themselves up against a disjointed and clumsy system. This week in Parliament I welcomed the new Health and Care Bill which will help them to integrate their services. Something I’ve campaigned on for years now. https://t.co/6csXSd6n3G — PolitiTweet.org

Great news that Penzance Dry Dock has a new owner! I was delighted to play my part in keeping the dock open, saving engineering jobs right in the heart of Penzance. Linked Solutions SW is a fantastic local company, and their plans for the future are exactly what Cornwall needs. https://t.co/nsQXerZUkE — PolitiTweet.org
