Did he really, do you mean The Observer or the local paper? because I can't find anything in either.
I am surrounded by windfarms here, but I've never heard about the concerns for epileptics.
The main objection here is that it's big business (run by the mafia!!) because every 'windmill' costs a great deal of cash. On the other hand there's quite a saving on electricity bills and many benefits for all the small towns.
Still, I'm no longer in Ossie, so perhaps I should keep out of the discussion!!
