Paean of praise

I read with interest Laughton Johnson’s paean of praise for Viking Energy’s wind farm written of behalf of that shadowy organisation of ‘freelight masons’, the wind farm supporters group. (Little say and no benefit; SN, 17/10/13)

As Johnson resides at Sandness, far removed from the wind farm, I and many others of the oft ridiculed NIMBY’s would welcome his opinion on Dr Taylor’s report on the health issues relating to wind farms.

It’s a sad reflection that Johnson appears to suggest that wealth for the community should come before health for the community.

Is this his personal opinion or that held by the entire wind farm supporters group?
