BALLOON REVEALS "MONSTROUS" SCALE OF INCINERATOR

January 29, 2009 4:00 PM

STIGStephen Gilbert has said that the raising of the balloon over the incinerator site at St Dennis shows "the monstrous scale" of the planned incinerator and "has made me and the campaigners even more determined to oppose the plans."

The Prospective MP for St Austell and the clay villages, said: "You had to see it to believe it; the balloon literally towered over St Dennis and would dominate the village and area completely. No community should be expected to live so close to such a monstrosity. St Dennis is not going to roll over and accept this, we will fight it all the way. Incineration is not the right technology, one site is not the right solution and St Dennis is not the right place."

    If you are a resident of the St Austell and Newquay constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
