Hey all,

 

i've just watched a program on tv that made my fuckin' blood boil!  Despite all the starving people all over the world, the European Parliament has decreed that any fish caught that does not conform to their say so must be returned to the sea, even if it's dead or alive or in a perfectly edible condition.  Giving the state of the dwindling world fish stocks, this is a crime of epic proportions!

 

Please, click the link, watch the very short video clip and then add YOUR voice to the rapidly growing group of people that have had enough of "discard"

 

Thank you

that is just a whole lot of BS,

why waste so much food?

that is destroying life needlessly,

people could have eaten the fish they had to throw away because of the government,

just because they don't have to worry about starving,

doesn't mean others in the world don't have that luxury,

this is what happens when you have dumb asses controlling the country,

JERK OFFS

I watch the progs. over the last 2 nights, basically, a chef over here went on trawlers fishing, and due to EU quotas, he was not allowed to keep and put to market about half the fish he was catching, most of them normal fish we eat like cod, pollock, haddock, and many other fish. (some were in the 20-40 lb size!!!)

 

Bear in mind, we are talking millions of tonnes of british fish being thrown away each year.

 

Hugh Fearney-Whittingstall then went to put forward the Discard (as its called) problem/waste to the EU commisioners and minister for fishing form respective eU countries, the bloody sSpanish and Dutch ministers said WHAT HE WA SAYING WAS FALSE, FECKING BULLSHIT, ITS WAS CAUGHT ON FILM, NOT ONCE, BUT SEVERAL TIMES.

 

The EU is basically one big joke, a gravy train for people who know nothing of how to run things.

 

£116billion is the bill to run the EU, £116billion too much.

 

Agreed stool, its a disgrace and a travesty, millions of tonnes of food a year thrown overboard due to wrong fish being caught.

 

 

In the second program, which was about Salmon farming and tinned fish, the jist is this:

 

for every 1kg of Salmon, it takes 3kg of caught,dead processes fish made into pellets to feed it. Thats fucked.

 

TESCO, our largest retailer by a mile puts on its tins its fish is caught ethically and with no harm caused to ther fish, yet there was Greenpeace interviewing some Ghanaian fishermen catch the fish for the tins, who said that turtles, sharks and dolphins were being caught, killed and dumped overbaord also, from 3000m long nets.

 

This world is SOOO fucked up sometimes.

Nice one Heffalump, a bite size nugget!  Those Euro fuckers need to step the fuck off, telling us where to go and what to do and who to do it to.  I disgree with you about it being a gravy train though - it's a gravy boat, twice as slow and twice as full!  Can you believe those fucks tell us we gotta weigh in kilos and grams, cucumbers have got to be straight and a million other fucked up rules!

It's not only fish that is wasted, millions of tonnes of other food stuffs too, it's about time we all gave up on the EU, the fucking collapse of the Euro just shows what a big fucking joke it is, we kept the pound but we still having to pay out billions to prop the Euro up, to Greece and Ireland and probably Spain and Portugal next, what a big fucking conYell

I think you guy's and girls are missing the point here. The trawlers are over fishing ! the goverments Canada included way of stopping them is by not letting them have all the fish they are not suppose to be fishing for. By doning this brain dead move they hope the industry will self regulate them selves and find a fix to the problem. My solution is still the best no more trawlers till they fix the problem.
