🚨 WE WON - Flamingo Land has finally been rejected! For the last decade we have fought to save Loch Lomond from this destructive mega-resort plan. Thank you to the 155,000 people who joined our movement. This is your victory 💚

Formal Decision
46. Accordingly, for the reasons given above, the Scottish Ministers hereby dismiss the appeal and refuse planning permission in principle for the proposed development.
