Judges rule US billionaire had no grounds for accusing ministers of illegally agreeing to license windfarm close to his Aberdeenshire golf resort

Three senior judges in Edinburgh ruled that Trump had no grounds for accusing Scottish ministers of illegally agreeing to license an experimental 100MW offshore wind farm only a few miles from his Aberdeenshire golf resort project.
