Time to add to the adage you can’t keep a good man down with the sub-clause:  you can never shut a megalomaniac with stupid hair up, either.

Having already upset everyone in Scotland (not all that difficult really) with his plans for a billion dollar resort In Aberdeenshire, it seems that the plans to take the project to Country Antrim in Northern Ireland are quietly moving forward. Scotland’s First Minister Alex Salmond is so desperate to impress the Trumpster, that he’s ordered an enquiry to find out why planning permission was turned down by local authorities.

Meanwhile, a member of Trump’s empire of wealth, George Sorial, has flown in to Northern Ireland this week. Strenuous denials abound that the trip is anything other than exploratory, despite the Rev Ian Paisley having tapped up Trump in person on a recent trip to the US.

How we would have dearly loved to be at that meeting… See what our friends at the Belfast Telegraph are saying about it.
