But it is wind turbine eyesores on which most of the subsidies are going. As you and I have discussed on the pages of the forum before now.

Why isn't this Government doing more to subsidise and promote solar?

That picture of the ugly wind turbines on the hill near the beautiful town of Stirling show just how they can damage scenic views.

It is good of the Daily Mail to bring attention to this fact.

If the europhile Salmond (First Minister of Scotland and leader of the pro-EU Scottish 'National' Party - SNP) thousands more of these unwanted turbines will be built across Scotland.
