As a Scot I applaud Trump's vision. It will bring desperately needed jobs and income to an area that has lost so much with the decline of the scottish oil industry. It wil also bring a broader income to Scotland as a whole. The development will actually have a very small longterm impact on the sand dune habitat of the local wildlife and will not affect Balmedie Beach and Country Park. Scottish Natural Heritage need to get their heads out of their own a*ses and look at the longterm benefits not only of the economy but of the area as a whole. 20% of Scotland are protected areas controlled by Scottish Natural Heritage and Trumps golf course plans intrude upon only a small part of dunes. Even the most ardent environmentalist must concede that a long term effect is negligable if any. I think that it is really either a "jobsworth" situation or someone isnt getting their palms greased.
