Yeah, wasn’t that a whole thing in the Brexit discussions? That Cornwall got a lot of EU funding to off-set them being such a deprived area, and whether the UK government would match that funding or just leave them to picturesquely rot?

Yeah. I wonder if you super-imposed the motorways and railways on to that map, the lack of investment would show up? Because you can’t really get around that area without a car unless you spend basically entire days travelling, and even with a car it’s ridiculous. I bet you could see where the M5 stops where nearly all the spots go dark.

I hadn’t realised they included the Isles of Scilly, too.

I wonder what Cornwall would look like if they hadn’t had that extra support?
