We stand in solidarity with colleagues working around the world to protect the sea. Scotland is falling behind much of the rest of the world in its fisheries and marine management, the time to act is now. If you want to read the report mentioned in the video you can do so

Its Tom and Santiago's last day Cycling for the Seas around Scotland's coasts, they have smashed it despite the weather and raised a lot of money for marine charities. Great to see positive action being taken for change! justgiving.com/crowdfunding/c…

*BREAKING* SEPA have put restrictions onto Scottish Sea Farms after they dumped x6 over the legal limit of formaldahyde & bronopol into a protected marine environment. Watch the Scottish gov step in and let them off the hook. salmonbusiness.com/partial-licenc…

It would be good to see the material that is being shown to these kids The Highland Council Is it balanced? This is a contentious industry with many known impacts, who is providing the other side of the story? Foodrise fishfocus.co.uk/hundreds-of-in…

Fine for kids to learn about potential employment, but they must not be given a one sided, industry sponsored take on #salmon farming which has well documented social, environmental and welfare impacts. Can we see the materials that were shared with the kids? The Highland Council

And here is the truth. #Salmon farming isn't about jobs, its all about the money. That's the one pro point gone. Mairi Gougeon John Swinney Ariane Burgess Màiri McAllan '24 pens, zero staff: new barge shows where salmon farming is headed' salmonbusiness.com/24-pens-zero-s…

Beautiful wrasse in the oyster hoisters on Ullapool pontoons today. I see a male frequently here, they are very territorial so it could well be the same fellow, if it is, he clearly doesn't mind being taken on board and ogled on a regular basis. Ullapool

Around 3,500 crofters have not confirmed that they are living within 20 miles of their croft as required by law. That is a serious concern. Absentee crofters, like absentee landowners, seldom give rise to vibrant rural communities. Action required... bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
