Thing is Scott, Aberdeenhsire and especialy Balmedie 5 miles from Aberdeen is hardly a 'economically disadvantaged' part of Scotland...There is more money round Aberdeen (which is known as the Oil Capitol of Europe) than you can shake a stick at. Don't listen to his PR that he is building in a depresed area of Scotland and he is doing us all a favour..it is simply untrue. Aberdeenshire has the lowest unemployment in the UK with house prices doubling over the last 7 years thats why hes building there.
