Trumps' Son - cant remember his name - was pictured on local TV News when the first sods were being cut for initial land stabilisation. He was wearing an expensive suit and Gucci Loafers standing in a muddy field beside an excavator and tractor. The Muppet looked completely out of place - just like this development.

Unfortunately, this whole sorry episode is just one example of the moral corruptness of Local "Democracy" and the Planning Process. I dont say this glibly. Always the carrot of Jobs seems to over-ride all other considerations, including our Culture, History and Environment.

Unfortunately, we never seem to learn from History so I suppose it doesnt really matter if, in the name of economic growth and development, we destroy all physical remains of our History.

If our planets Oceans, forests, Jungles and wildlife don't stand a chance, What's the odds for a few megaliths? Or some old History?
Western Civilization marches on.
But Good Luck over there in ScotLand.

They held up the promise of jobs with the parliament building, then it transpired that they were having to spens a lot of money on translators for the foreign builders that were brought in by the building company.

Signed it too.

I thought he was stalled again under investigation of backhanders to council members?

Don't know if you saw this, Strathspey, in your area but this was on the STV Grampian version tonight. The related articles are also interesting.

Slightly misleading as she can appeal and basically this decision means they can carry on their work until another date is fixed. Shes a fair fighter.
