| | | Donald Trump doesn't like it! I found this to be very interesting and especially Donald Trump's dislike, after all the furore he has caused in the area with his golf course development.
Just wonder if he will take it further!
He is of course one of the many who don't agree with these massive offshore installations for whatever reason. BBC News - Wind farm project application for Aberdeen Bay

Ha ha!! Not unlike the way his golf course would spoil the view (and the protected habitats and wildlife) of the formerly unspoilt coastal scenery.....
Not acceptable for local residents to object to his plans but OK for him to object to something that (whatever we may think of windfarms, and I am not commenting on that) is of no concern to a non-UK-resident money-grabbing foreigner!!

However as I know the site and lovely beach/surroundings quite well, I would also be very much against such an installation. It must be one of the largest and best beaches in the UK.

I'd go for miles to see a golfer (especially if they were tied to a wind-turbine). Especially if it was candy floss haired Mr Trump.
