Picture: Shutterstock/iweta0077Donald Trump‘s golf resort in Aberdeenshire has lost a complaint to the UK’s biggest press regulator against The Scotsman over two articles about its food hygiene standards. Trump International Golf Club Scotland Limited, for which Trump’s sons Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump are listed as directors on Companies House, claimed the article was inaccurate because it “created a false narrative that the resort was currently operating an unsafe environment for consumers and that the problems were ongoing”. The first article, published on 16 September last year, reported that the Trump International Golf Links resort in Scotland failed to “achieve a pass grade under a national food hygiene scheme” and had been served an “improvement notice” the previous year. Trump International also said it was inaccurate for the print article to use a photo of MacLeod House, the hotel at the Trump International golf resort, because it was the golf clubhouse and not the hotel that had been inspected.
