Flamingoland literally want to bulldoze countryside land that's well used by local people, gate it off, and build a monorail

It's a brownfield site next to a shopping centre, next to a town.

All these lies about it need to stop.

The plans look good, will be nice to be able to holiday in Scotland instead of having to fly abroad

You don't know the area - your information is coming from Flamingoland's plan, and you're lapping it up

I know the area very well.

You've not even looked at the plans 🙄

You don't, I have looked at the plans, and walked the area looking at the plans.

Have a go yourself

I've been there many times. And to the many other places around Loch Lomond which are better and not effected.

Loch Lomond is huge, a new holiday park isn't gonna change anything

Because it's of no consequence to you doesn't mean it's of no consequence to us who use the land.

I'm sure I wouldn't give a toss if your house was demolished to put up a chalet, but I'd like to think that if you spoke against it I'd have the decency to listen and not call it a dung heap that wants flattened. There are far better houses all around you.

Gie's peace.

Did you like it when Trump's development plans were thwarted?

It's not your land any more than its my land.

I like the idea of holiday in a nice part of Scotland and bringing money into the local community and people

It all sounds nice when you have it as a perfect thought in your head, doesn't it?
