Matt Valler, joint co-ordinator for Cornwall Green Party, said: “This is a fantastic result for us, and Tamsyn will be a great councillor for the people of Penryn. "And it’s part of a bigger picture of Green wins all over the country. It shows that the Green Party is now a real force to be reckoned with in Cornwall. “Having more Greens in the rooms where key decisions are made, both at County Hall and in towns and parishes across Cornwall, will make a big difference. "We’d like to thank everyone who put their trust in our candidates, as well as all the volunteers who stepped up to help us fight a brilliant campaign on a fraction of the budget that the big parties enjoy.
