"Donald Trump’s Scottish golf courses trapped in lossmaking bunker"​

"Two resorts lost £4.4mn in 2021 hit by Covid curbs, Brexit and staff shortages"



"The annual report also said Brexit has “impacted” business “as supply chains have been affected by availability of drivers and staff, reducing deliveries and the availability of certain product lines”.

"It also warned over staffing levels given a “lack of access to European staff for businesses in general resulting in greater demand for the individuals previously available at the resort”. In 2016, Trump welcomed the Brexit vote, saying “when the pound goes down, more people are coming to Turnberry, frankly”.

"The two Scottish resorts also received more than £1mn in financial support from the government during the lockdowns. SLC Turnberry Ltd is owned by a holding company called Golf Recreation Scotland, which lists Eric Trump as its only director. The Donald J Trump Revocable Trust is listed as owning Golf Recreation Scotland."

Perhaps he's laughing at you and your fellow jabbers JD. 4 million he got in furlough money and by all accounts business is thriving again since the covid restrictions were lifted.

He's willing to mock anybody worth less than a billion bucks.

Must have found some staff if business is booming, maybe Brexit isn't having the impact that's being claimed.
 
Have they ever officially made a profit? I thought they've been loss making since at least 2019.

Given the number of fraud cases the trump organisation has lost, or is in the progress of losing, HMRC should be taking a close look.

Edit: Yes, they've been loss making since he bought them.
