Final updates on the campaign, was a bit busy doing some last minute campaigning to post ! Went to drum up some votes at parliament and every single politician said theyd give me their backing so it’s in the bag eh 😉 Politicians don’t go back on their words do they ?

Underwater footage of escape tunnel fitted into a #Nephrops trawl ⬇️ The #CatchCam camera footage shows #fish swimming up and out of the net, while Nephrops fall back to the codend. Learn more about the CatchCam camera for #CommercialFishing here: bit.ly/3LLZf9A

Great teamwork last week! The entire @SNTechUK team came together for a strategy session in Largs, #Scotland. We had the opportunity to go on sea trials aboard the FV Eilidh Anne and to work alongside skipper @wightman70 & Shaun. A #fishing 🌊 debut for some of us in the team!

Had another trial with #sntechuk and this was one of the clips that jumped out - he’s punching the codend to get the wee fish to swim out - habitual behaviour!!

Is this nearer the truth than the oft refered to NTZ the eNGO cartel keep whittering about while seeking more funding? news.stv.tv/west-central/l…


That’s me at the start of this years job list - some maintenance and some improvements, at the end of this I’ll probably have put around 20k back into the local economy, engineers, welders, shipwrights yard staff etc all of which will be lost if the #hmpas are forced upon us.
