A businessman’s illegal £500,000 home is facing demolition after neighbours saw it light up ‘like an alien invasion from Mars’ at night, reports Yahoo News.

But its sudden appearance sparked complaints from villagers, who claim it is causing light pollution as it has large glazed windows that illuminate “like a Christmas tree”….
Stuart Vaughan, 77, said: “It has got glass overlooking these fantastic views. There are no street lights in West Compton and no light pollution so when he puts the lights on it is lit up and it looks like an alien invasion from Mars.”
