Here's how Glasgow Prestwick Airport has been quietly editing a section of its website aimed at foreign military customers to remove mention of Trump Turnberry. Compare the current webpage (l) with one from last week (r)
Again, the airport has refused to explain why only @realDonaldTrump's resort (1 of 13 hotels it uses for inbound US aircrews) is named in literature distributed to USAF. But if the arrangement's above board, why's it editing its site to remove similar mentions?
NEW My latest for @TheScotsman on Trump Turnberry and Glasgow Prestwick Airport, as the state owned hub quietly edits a section of its website aimed at military customers to remove a mention of the US president's resort - the *only* hotel that was named. scotsman.com/news/prestwick…
Why was Turnberry the only hotel mentioned? Why was its mention subsequently removed? Who took the decision? Was Turnberry / Trump Org involved or consulted in process? All Qs for when Prestwick's press office opens on Monday.
For context, here's my excl from Wednesday showing how Trump's resort was the only hotel named in pitch materials handed out by the airport at private meetings with US military. This isn't an isolated incident. scotsman.com/news/world/tru…
Much more to come on this story in the next few days, but tips and info always welcome. My DMs are open and encrypted email is martynmcl@protonmail.com
UPDATE I've been combing through Glasgow Prestwick Airport's website and caches, and it seems its editing of webpages to remove mentions of @realDonaldTrump's Turnberry resort is even more comprehensive than I first thought. Some pages have been removed altogether.
It's plain from the automated snippets generated via Google that Trump Turnberry feature extensively across the site. Take this sit specific search result, for example.
But click thru to the same page, and this is what you get - all mention of Trump Turnberry vanishes. There's been some extensive digital housekeeping at the airport to excise its associations with Trump's firm.
