Fishboxes being loaded from a French boat onto a refrigerated lorry, bound for the continent.
No fish went through the local market, no @marinescotland personnel to verify that these activities were legitimate.
We know illegal fishing happens in Shetland: This is how.

A lot of world leaders talk a good climate game, but when push comes to shove they have failed to live up to their words.
With Greens in government in Scotland we're stepping up to the challenge and delivering the greenest policy programme of any government since devolution.
Well said @rebecca_yahr, the tiny epiphytes found in #Scotlandsrainforest are 'exquisitely sensitive' to their environment; we need make sure they can migrate across the landscape as habitats shift. Keep up the important work @TheBotanics. @ScotWildlife#Ballachuan wood stunning!
If you'd like to start volunteering or get more involved in your community but not quite sure where to start please contact our Volunteer Development Officer Dani, who can help you find the right opportunity for you.

“Where did all the wild salmon go?”
“Ballantyne says she has netted some young wild salmon with more than 150 lice feeding on them: 13 is enough to kill a fish. She calculated that up to 85 per cent of the smolt run perished last year.”

Scotland's landscapes feel like they are dominated by 3 things Sitka, Sheep and Grouse Shooting. Only around 4% of our land looks like this. If we are going to address the biodiversity crisis we need to consider some big changes. #RewildScotland
