Secondly, fishermen are allowed to sell up to 25 kgs per day direct to the public as a private sale [and one would hope that the MMO recognise the need for fishermen to make every effort to stay afloat at this time and not be too heavy handed in this respect]
A good start to supporting the fishing industry would be for the major retailers to reopen their fish counters that they closed or put on reduced days recently.

Back on the tweets after a big vacation. Hope you’re all ok. Holed up at home so if I can help with any organic growing queries then send them my way. Remember be proactive not reactive xx

Why no fish?? It's piling up at the ports and being sold for pennies. The supply chain is still intact so where is the bottleneck??

Good morning to Lib Dem and Green voters in Uxbridge and South Ruislip. You have the power to unseat a Prime Minister for the first time in history. But you can only do that if you vote Labour.
Boris Johnson is nine points ahead of Labour in his seat. The combined Lib Dem/Green vote is ... nine points.

It is completely clear from video footage that @MattHancock's adviser was not whacked by a protestor, as I was told by senior Tories, but that he inadvertently walked into a protestor's hand. I apologise for getting this wrong.

What 3 steps can you take to reduce your carbon footprint from food according to #ClimateChangeTheFacts? 1. Don't waste anything 2. Don't buy airfreighted food 3. Significantly reduce meat intake, especially beef & lamb. "This could save 2 tonnes of CO2 per person per year" – at Kingsteignton, England
