"Donald Trump's $2 billion dream golf course in Scotland got a key vote of approval Tuesday - but not from the feisty fisherman whose refusal to sell his farm has knocked the billionaire's plans off-kilter.
"I'll never ever sell to Trump," Michael Forbes told the Daily News. "He's pissed me off now." "
I say good for him. He's standing up for what's his and doesn't want a golf course and hotel defacing his land. The sad thing is that Trump, being the man he is, will eventually just be able to claim 'eminent domain' and force him off the land.

I love it! This goes to show that money cannot buy everything in this world least of all a Scot's own land.

Fight the Power, Scottish-style // But can someone please explain what 'eminent domain' means? Surely if the Mr Forbes (the irony) doesn't want to sell his land he doesn't have to - right?

Good. We don't need any stupid wasteful usage of land for golf courses.
