**** STT hears that hundreds of communities across rural Australia are about to launch the mother-of-all counter-attacks, against the pending threat of having their homes quite literally stolen by wind power outfits. Monstrous outfits - like near-bankrupt Infigen - are just dying to spear another 2,500 of these things into places that have greeted that … Continue reading Potential Wind Farm Neighbour Finds Idyllic Property is Now ‘Unsaleable’ at Any Price

**** Remember all those glowing stories about wind power outfits being welcomed into rural communities with open arms? You know, tales about how farmers are dying to have turbines lined up all over their properties? How locals can’t wait to pick up some of the thousands of permanent, high paying jobs on offer? How developers … Continue reading Farmer Knocks Back ‘Offers’ of $100,000 a Year to Host Turbines & Tells Senate: “These Things Shouldn’t Be In Anyone’s Backyard”
Turbine Hosts’ Lament: Hammered by Wind Power Outfits; Hated by Former Friends, Relatives & Neighbours
**** After years of being shunned by former friends and neighbours for introducing turbines into their communities (or signing up for that to happen in future), many turbine hosts are keen to wind the clock back and make amends. Community division, angry former friends and hostile neighbours are just one aspect of what’s causing actual … Continue reading Turbine Hosts’ Lament: Hammered by Wind Power Outfits; Hated by Former Friends, Relatives & Neighbours
Turbine Hosts Line Up to Tip a Bucket on Wind Power Outfits, as Senate Submissions Deadline Extended to 4 May 2015
**** The Australian Senate is about to rip into the greatest fraud of all time, with a Select Committee Inquiry into wind farms.

Farmers Tell Wind Farm Developer to Stick its Turbines Where the Sun Don’t Shine
**** The great wind power fraud depends on a few gullible land owners signing up to host turbines for charming wind power outfits like Thailand’s RATCH (see our posts here and here and here).

Jonathan Upson: Thuggery, Bullying and Harassment – just another day at the office
**** Time is fast running out for STT’s favourite whipping boys, Infigen. Bleeding cash (it backed up a $55 million loss in 2011/12 with an $80 million loss, last financial year) the struggling outfit - formerly known as Babcock and Brown - is scrambling to get development approvals for all of its projects so they … Continue reading Jonathan Upson: Thuggery, Bullying and Harassment – just another day at the office
Industrial Noise – is always and everywhere a public health problem
Desperate to prevent the Coalition’s promised investigation into the known and obvious adverse health effects from giant industrial wind turbines - obvious health effects, such as sleep deprivation – STT hears that wind weasels and their parasites have rounded up a few tame turbine hosts at Waubra to try and pooh-pooh the tragic experiences of … Continue reading Industrial Noise – is always and everywhere a public health problem
Love thy Neighbour
It should never be forgotten that the land-holder that sells their soul for a few pieces of silver is the basis for the whole wind power fraud. Wind weasels would never purchase land in their own right - far better to pay a few measly $thousand per turbine in annual "licence" fees to a "sucker" … Continue reading Love thy Neighbour
The “Squirrel Grip”: Stockyard Hill Style
From the battle hardened members of STT we know that you are wasting your breath when you spend time trying to talk sense into State Governments, their Planning Departments and EPAs - sure enough they make decisions that ruin many a great community, but they ain't "the money" - that all comes out of Canberra … Continue reading The “Squirrel Grip”: Stockyard Hill Style
