Very similar to @johnswinney.bsky.social @mairigougeon.bsky.social ruling out an #Inshorelimit scrapped by Thatcher in 1984. Seems @thesnp.bsky.social policy is to support & fund Scallop Dredging. Short term Economic madness.

Imaginary RED lines are used by Gov ministers when they have lost the debate, with vast majority of voters wanting change. @mairigougeon.bsky.social @johnswinney.bsky.social use RED lines to deny the basic economic & ecological case of a fisheries #Inshorelimit in #Scotland
Could Keir Starmer, or even Rachel Reeves kindly explain what are the hallowed red lines that creating a customs arrangement with the EU would cross? They must surely be serious. Something on the lines of ”we’d have to use the same colour paper” would be a step forward.

We were there with a clear message: if we look after our seas, then abundance will return.
More Protection = More Fish = More Jobs.
Scotland needs a #inshorelimit & protecting at least 30% of inshore waters from bottom-trawling and scallop dredging is an evidence-based step towards recovery.

We must have an #InshoreLimit on seabed-disrupting fishing methods such as trawling & dredging; and also better enforcement of pollution controls.

NZ hopes to store carbon in marine ecosystems – but some are so degraded they’re already a source of emissions
Seagrass meadows, mangroves and kelp forests are carbon sinks. Restoring or protecting them addresses both biodiversity loss and the climate crisis.
