This action was tak­en to high­light the increas­ing urban sprawl that is attack­ing our coun­try­side.
Corn­wall does not need more homes. There are enough homes in Corn­wall, but we have to abol­ish the sec­ond homes that lie emp­ty for eleven months of the year.

We need our wild spaces. We do not need urban sprawl.
