Stop the sermons

For Laughton Johnston (Speak up … now! SN, 14/08/14) and Chris Bunyan (A hollow victory? SN, 13/08/14): the wind farm question is simple; you are a traitor if you don’t buy it.

But recent correspondence in the Shetland News and Shetland Times suggests to me that they are being hysterical.

It is not clear yet if such a farm will have any beneficial effects on the environment.

And while one councillor says that it would transform the council’s finances, another says that it made the council profligate at the worst possible time.

So Chris and Laughton: please stop the sermons, at least until these basic questions are answered.
