From Think Progress:
Donald Trump may be leading in the GOP primary polls in the U.S., but he just lost a major battle in the U.K.
The billionaire businessman has been fighting to prevent the construction of a wind farm off the coast of Aberdeen, Scotland, since 2013. And on Wednesday, Britain’s Supreme Court ruled unanimously against Trump, who had argued in his lawsuit that the Scottish government’s approval of the 11-turbine farm was invalid.
Trump has maintained that the wind farm, if constructed, would ruin the view of a luxury golf course he owns near the planned site of the farm. The Scottish government approved plans for the wind farm in 2013, and since then, Trump’s challenge had lost twice in Scottish courts.
Here is what Herr Trumpf said about the wind farm in March of 2013:
'The Scottish wind farm was conceived by the same mind that released (Lockerbie) terrorist al-Megrahi.’
And:
‘We will spend whatever monies are necessary to see to it that these huge and unsightly industrial wind turbines are never constructed.'
Ha-ha — I guess money can’t buy everything.
