LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump clashed with Scotland's political leaders on Wednesday after Britain's supreme court threw out his bid to stop a wind farm being built near his luxury Scottish golf course.

A day after battling with rival candidates in a Republican national security debate, the business tycoon entered a war of words with lawmakers in his mother's homeland after losing his fight to block the building of 11 offshore turbines near his multi-million dollar resort.
