THE Scottish Government has been accused of misleading the public over its decision to award £180,000 of taxpayers’ cash to a golf competition on Donald Trump's course.

- BY HANNAH RODGER Political Editor

The funding, announced on the second day of the US President's visit to Scotland last month, was said to be for supporting “delivery of this year's” Nexo Championship.

But the Sunday Mail can reveal the cash was actually spent on adverts including a giant VisitScotland sign, a 30-second online advert and some “Scotland” billboards around the Trump International course in Aberdeen.

The funding had no bearing on whether the competition would go ahead as the event had been announced in May.
