Conor, can you just switch off this bloody trilemma-go-round please? I think I'm going to vomit. (The switch is right there in the cabinet office btw). Good man yourself.

The absolute priority of the UK Government is protecting the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement and the institutions that spring from it. As @SpeakerPelosi knows we seek an ambitious FTA with the US. But there can be no connection between that and doing the right thing for NI. None.

Great News!
Impact-9 is delighted to have been selected by @seafoodfund to undertake a Feasibility Study for our offshore aquaculture solutions in UK waters and develop a commercialisation plan for the UK market.

This is a very important thread on COVID, I suspect. Government must clarify their understanding of false positives and how they plan to allow for this in crucial policy decisions.

So @UtilityregCRU, I took time out last week to exercise my consumer rights (aka "update your energy provider annually or get ripped off"). I am inundated with life's admin so wanted a simple fix. And look at the great @energiaenerg savings! (BUT!....) / 1

Orkney is a real bright spot for salmon farming. An offshore archipelago surrounded by waves and currents. No sea lice here. Great farmers, supply chain and marine test facilities. Thanks to @scotseafarms @CookeScotland @leaskmarine and @EMEC_Ltd for hosting me.
I have always prioritised the green agenda in my engineering career and business decisions - which makes this particularly disappointing!
Ireland's Green Party election manifesto contains a huge green blunder when it comes to salmon farming.

It is nice to be back home in Skerries! Looking out on the Irish Sea on a beautiful winter's morning, I can't help but think that 3 or 4 km off our beaches are deep, high energy dispersion sites for clean, sustainable fish production - invisible from shore.
While a poor regulatory system, policy and misinformation on the environmental impact of salmon farming has certainly frustrated Irish developments, it is also true that Ireland lacks the geographic features of Norway to scale-up in sheltered sites. Impact-9 will change this.

Impact-9 can deliver huge growth in sustainable aquaculture, especially where licence systems recognise its environmental benefits.

Great to visit Barramundi Asia's excellent #Kuhlbarra Singapore hatchery and offshore site today. Fantastic to hear their ambitious plan to grow further Barramundi projects offshore of Brunei.
Great to have landed in Singapore and to have already had the chance to discuss our plans for Offshore Aquaculture on day 1 @hatchblue1 @BordIascMhara @impactnine
