LABOUR have been accused of a "two-pronged attack" on Scotland's energy after denying a £1.5 billion investment to build the UK’s largest wind turbine factory in the Highlands.

Chinese firm Ming Yang – one of the world’s largest wind turbine manufacturers – had been looking to build the UK’s largest wind turbine manufacturing facility at Ardersier near Inverness, which the company said would have created up to 1500 jobs.
