Speaking to Express.co.uk on whether or not he believes 2023 can be any completely different, Mr Ward mentioned: “Well, basically it’s the same every year so it won’t be any busier this year than it is normally.

“The locals can’t even move their own cars and the traffic gets horrendous. You only need to look at the chaos by Truro.

“The whole of this end of Cornwall around Hale and down to Penzance can be a real nightmare with queuing traffic.

“We need the tourists, that’s the only problem…a lot of the locals would prefer fewer tourists.”

Mr Ward’s feedback come days after a seashore in St Ives was branded “hell on earth”.

One of the seashores was slammed by irate customers on TripAdvisor who weren’t happy with what they discovered.

One consumer, who glided by the identify Philip H mentioned the water was too chilly and that seashore had the incorrect sort of sand.

He wrote: “Very cold water. We visited the beach yesterday. We had to walk ages to the sea because the tide was out and when we got there it was freezing and very windy.”

Philip H added: “The sand was awful as it is the wrong sort of sand and very sticky. It got everywhere and I’m still finding bits today! Won't be back next year.”

Another consumer, often known as WendyAH8 mentioned: “Hideous, overcrowded, noisy, covered in litter. Why would anyone with any sense want to go to this place which is hell on earth?

“Crowded, noisy, nothing to eat but bad fish and chips and Cornish pasties, and the beach packed full of the morbidly obese, screaming sunburnt children in buggies and people with tattoos.

“The place to go to see parenting at its worst and cardiovascular disease waiting to happen.”

St Ives hasn’t been the one a part of Cornwall underneath fireplace from indignant guests.

One reviewer, Mazp951, mentioned they have been “disappointed” by the within of Truro Cathedral and that it appeared “to be used more for concerns rather than as a cathedral”.

Local RNLI lifeguard, Stefan Harkon added: "At times, people in the town feel that they are just operatives in a theme park. We work in an area but we can’t live in it. We need quality jobs and more affordable housing.

“We need to invest in our young people and their future in whatever way we can. They need to have a sense of ownership of their town for if they don’t feel the community where they live appreciate them, we’ll only see a continuation of this loop we’re in and the brain-drain will continue.

“You’d think it’d be a no-brainer for tech companies wanting to choose locations like St Ives."

Co-founder of the First Not Second Homes marketing campaign, Camilla Dixon mentioned there was a dichotomy between the wealthy individuals who come to St Ives to have a vacation and the locals who battle.

She mentioned: "We have a town where the rich people come to on holiday when in some parts of St Ives more than a third of children live below the breadline."
