Trump critics over the top
I was very surprised and disappointed at the number of your correspondents who were opposed to Donald Trump's billion-pound development in Aberdeen. I can only assume that they are sitting comfortably in a secure job and don't care for the plight of the hundreds, possibly thousands, of workers in the building industry who are losing their jobs at present and who would welcome the opportunity to work on this development.
It would have been a criminal act for the Scottish Government to turn this offer down when you consider the hardship that is being felt by so many families as a consequence of the credit crunch.
We can only hope that there will be more developers attracted to Scotland who are prepared to prop up our economy.
