Putting the park in national park! Or maybe a terrible idea that will blight Balloch and the surrounding areas.

I suspect there is room for a loch side resort, and a leisure centre, and a hotel. But a waterpark, in Scotland? And a fucking monorail? Someone is off their tits at West Dunbartonshire council. The fact that this is now the third attempt by Flamingo Land in 6 years is batshit insane too: why won’t they just fuck off?

BBC article here doing it’s best to show why impartiality for the news is insane - nobody likes these proposals, the council is getting no appraisals for this decision. Where is the analysis of why Flamingo land are able to repeatedly abuse pur planning procedures and what are the powers and purposes of The Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park Authority. What role does the Scottish Government play in managing our shared ownership parks? This is a huge blow to democracy to see the council approve it too - who makes up this clouncil? Why it’s lead by Martin Rooney of Labour, who I just did a quick search on companies house and surprise surprise: he’s a developer!
