Do you like looking at the things in the Royal Cornwall Museum? You had better go quickly. It is more than a hundred years old. , but there will no longer be any financial support from Cornwall Council. Perhaps the museum will have to close its doors. £7.50 a ticket is not enough. More than fifty arts and culture organisations are asking the Council for funding. They want seven million pounds, more or less, but there is only less than two million pounds available – and that is over the next four years. The Cornish language needs funds as well, but there is not enough money. The leader of the Council approved the plan without consulting the other members! Perhaps culture is not important to her.
