@sustain321 @isleseafoods @IanDishyfish @B_McCrindle @YourFishingNews The media in the industry are using the term fishers regularly nowadays. It’s interesting to see the language changing as languages always do.

RT @washitgreen: @TanjaBueltmann The deportation contravenes the Geneva convention of 28/7/1951 and subsequent protocols. The threat to accelerate the process is a tacit admission that HMG recognise it will be found to be illegal. We once had unions who could have prevented the flight by withdrawing cooperation

RT @TanjaBueltmann: ❗️Don’t let jubilee bunting and booing bury this story. The HO is completely devoid of humanity. — ‘Asylum seekers who went on hunger strike over plans to send them to Rwanda have been threatened with faster deportation by Home Office if they do not eat.’ https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jun/02/home-office-threatens-hunger-strikers-with-faster-deportation-to-rwanda

RT @AnoukSNP: Brexit has led to a decline in crops and fewer home-grown products on the shelves of Britain’s supermarkets, farming chiefs have warned.
Feeling comfortable, Brexiteers?

RT @inchgarthcc: Huge thanks to our MP @StephenFlynnSNP who has supported our foodbank. These foodbanks should not be needed, but we do value the donations so so much to allow us to help others!
Thank you Stephen.

Quelle surprise
RT @BBCJamesCook: I tweeted this exactly ten years ago. Just took the same trip around Glasgow (adding the east end for good measure this time). Same result. Lots of folk out enjoying a beautiful evening — but no jubilee celebrations in sight.

@jrclarkbf800 @isleseafoods @IanDishyfish @B_McCrindle @YourFishingNews Some of our industry journalists now only use the word fishers, it’s catching on. New generations will see to that.

@sustain321 @isleseafoods @IanDishyfish @B_McCrindle @YourFishingNews No big deal then, I never brought it up in formal meetings but I did bring it to the attention of fishing leaders for more than 10 years in informal conversations.

@isleseafoods @IanDishyfish @B_McCrindle @YourFishingNews I just want to have a conversation, I had a few the last 2 weeks, positive ones and ones when we agreed to disagree. This is part of my role, nothing more, nothing less. I’m happy to discuss with you your reasons why we should not change, only if you want to of course.

What about skippers, we obviously don’t say skipperman, how many excuses do we need not to move forward?

@isleseafoods @IanDishyfish @B_McCrindle @YourFishingNews I have an opinion and I’m not forcing it on anyone. I have raised this for a decade and the conversation is not taking place.
What is so special to our industry not to follow the trend of other sectors?
Firemen don’t call themselves firemen anymore, same for police officers.

This is so important that we are reminded at the start of every meeting.
