1. Well, now Dickie Evans knows how Truro/Threemilestone feel – we feel we were ridden roughshod over during the whole negotiation for the site. The Cornish Pirates were totally not interested in our concerns about how this would affect our communities – their sole focus was premiership rugby status and to hell with how it affected the lives of people who live here. I totally oppose the use of public money for this grandiose plan, which uses up a lot of green space, will increase traffic horrendously, cause great pressure on an already dodgy sewerage system, increase flood risk, and I dread to think of the amount of carbon it will contribute to our greenhouse gas emissions. Surely rugby grounds should be within easy walking distance of a railway station and children should be able to access it safely, if it is to have benefit for the community.
