Farmer 'was offered cash and a night out at a lap dancing club if he agreed to having a giant wind turbine on his land'
A farmer was 'bribed' with a trip to a strip club if he agreed to having a giant wind turbine on his land, it has been claimed.
Officials from a major green energy company are trying to persuade landowners in Wales to sign up for wind generators and pylons by offering them financial incentives.
But a council meeting heard one was offered money and a night out at a lap dancing club.
The claims were made at an Extraordinary Meeting of Nelson Community Council near Caerphilly, South Wales, to discuss anger over attempts by Bute Energy to install controversial green power schemes in the Welsh countryside.
