@BarryGardiner Westminster Hall debate today: please ask the Fisheries Minister why he is shrinking the bass stock in 2025 when it is at an unsafe level (below Btrigger?) And why have recreational bass fishers had no increase in their bag limit for 5 years - discrimination.

For many of these fish stocks at risk, the UK and EU have a legal obligation to ensure their "rapid return" to a healthy status. What timeline is being targeted? @EUCouncil @EU_MARE @DefraGovUK @DanielZeichner
This week, the EU & UK will decide the fate of depleted fish populations like Irish Sea and Celtic Sea cod and whiting. High time to prioritise their recovery, #EndOverfishing and put long-term sustainability before short-term gain. @EUCouncil @EU_MARE @DefraGovUK @DanielZeichner
I doubt it will ever be possible to assess all the impacts of deep-sea mining. So why on earth would you start doing it when you don't know if it would cause immense damage? 500,000 people around the world urge you to vote 'NO'. @BjellandEriksen @terjeaa @erna_solberg

Please end Iceland's killing of whales. Your own investigation has exposed the shocking cruelty of the hunts and given you the opportunity to #StopWhaling for good. The world needs you to act. @MFAIceland @thordiskolbrun @SturlaSigurjons @IcelandinUK

French government blocks attempts of EU Parliament and the French small scale fishing fleet to stop Dutch flyshooters destroying inshore fisheries. Money talks.

Great. Any stakeholder updates planned?
Yesterday we welcomed the @NaturalEngland fisheries team to @PlymUni for a @Channel_Manche @fish_intel workshop. Such a great opportunity to discuss current and future projects! #TeamWork #Collaboration #EcosystemBasedFisheriesManagement

The MMO won't tell me the composition of the first Channel Demersal NQS Fishery Management Plan working group - because it is unbalanced? eNGOs are not invited. Not the way to run stakeholder engagement. @The_MMO @DefraGovUK @bejustnfearnot @Bluemarinef @mcsuk @ClientEarth
