Rocket Report Cornwall
Cornwall says “LOL, no” to space tourism.
"If we're being blunt about it ... One council member, John Fitter, was more explicit, saying, 'If we were to entertain this, it would be quite ridiculous and send out the wrong message to those people in Cornwall who could possibly be suffering on below the minimum wage and in poverty and allow people who have got vast millions of pounds to spend to go up to space for half an hour and come back down again.' Another member called it an 'absolute waste of money.'"
