watched the program last night, very interesting/entertaining viewing, but very one sided.

made the Trump organisation out to be gangsters riding roughshod over everyone concerned.

would like to see the other side of the story.

I have had dealings with this and many of the folk on the programme in a professional level and can tell you they have been badly treated.
The guy did attempt to speak to the Trump organisation and was ignored. They ended up asking 'invited media only' to the final press day obviously to avoid awkward questions etc.
As well as the earth banking put up the residents have now had mature fir/pine trees about 10-12 feet in height put up round their properties to hide their houses from golfers views. These people used to have an idyllic life with fantastic views of the sea/beach etc now they have trees.
Admittedly one of the properties is a bit of a tip but it's well hidden from the road etc and no one gave a toss before the golf course came, the guy wasn't bothering anyone and no one would have cared.

I can see this from both views. Personally I think the golf course will end up being good for the area in the long run, I just hate the way guys like Trump steam roller over anyone who gets in their way and throw their toys out the pram if anyone says no to them.

The ironic thing is that the Trump organisation is complaining that the windfarm will 'spoil the view for the golfers'. The view has always been there, it's just now there is a golf course on it......
