Spare me your pleepin

Chris Bunyan seems to be of the opinion that somehow we can repair divisions in the community by respecting one another’s views regarding Viking Energy (How to repair divisions; SN 25/02/15)

Personally I would give more credence to his views if he actually lived in the wind farm area rather than Bressay.

Bunyan claims to care about the environment and wildlife of these islands but strangely, along with Shetland Charitable Trust, chooses to ignore Dr Taylor’s report on the health problems associated with turbines.

So Mr Bunyan, spare me your sanctimonious ‘pleepin’. If you and your many(?) supporters are happy to destroy the quality of life for a vast majority of people in the central mainland – you know what you can do with your olive branch.
