A tribute to Chris Dunkerley

Mebyon Kernow 12-02-2026, 22:08

Everyone at Mebyon Kernow is extremely saddened to learn that prominent Cornish-Australian Chris Dunkerley has passed away.

Chris was active in the Cornish Association of South Australia and the Cornish Association of New South Wales, as well as the Celtic Council of Australia. He also learnt the Cornish language and was barded by proxy at Poldhu in 1988, and took the bardic name Kevrenor “builder of links.”

In Australia, he worked in the public sector and was a Liberal activist with the Australia Party and the Australian Democrats. He stood six times (unsuccessfully) as a candidate in the NSW state elections.

He was also a strong supporter of MK.

At this sad time, our thoughts are with his wife Joy; his three children Lowenna, Owen and Kerensa; and his grandchildren.

A fuller tribute will appear in the next edition of Cornish Nation magazine [no 99].

Today, I present a budget for Scottish families. A budget for a stronger NHS. And a budget for investment in Scotland’s infrastructure.

As a result of the decisions I am announcing today, some of the pressure on families and family budgets will ease.

There will be more operations and appointments in our health service, and it will be easier to access a GP.

College funding will grow, giving our young people more opportunities to learn and flourish.

Life will be a little easier for parents, with more wraparound childcare.

And more young Scots will be able to find a home that they love, and can afford, helping them build a more secure future right here in Scotland.
