Havsbrun (Bakkafrost) caught illegally importing fish feed to Scotland?

Something fishy is going on down at Fairlie Quay marina in Ayrshire where hundreds of tonnes of feed bags from the Faroe Islands have been stored – and potentially impounded – whilst Falkirk Council complete sampling.
“The Faroe Islands is the blood salmon capital of the world,” said Don Staniford, Director of $camon $cotland who recently visited the Faroes on a mission with Neptune’s Pirates UK. “Importing fish feed from the Faroes to fuel the expansion of ‘Scottish’ salmon farming is unethical and unsustainable. If Bakkafrost’s imports of Havsbrun fish feed are not illegal or unsafe then they are certainly immoral. Scottish Ministers must come clean to the electorate that a vote for the SNP supports the deadly Faroese/Norwegian-owned $almafia.”
“Last month I visited the Faroe Islands and was horrified at the presence of Russian supertrawlers side by side with huge fishing ships from Africa,” continued Staniford. “Salmon farming is stealing precious protein out of the mouths of marine wildlife as well as starving people all around the world. Bakkafrost’s ‘Greed of Feed’ must be stopped dead in its tracks before millions more RSPCA Assured Scottish salmon suffer unnecessarily and die horrific deaths inside diseased feedlots. Consumers buying Bakkafrost’s ‘Scottish’ salmon have blood on their hands.”

Questions for @falkirkcouncil, @HighlandCouncil & @North_Ayrshire: has testing of fish feed imported by Bakkafrost (Havsbrun) from the Faroes found the presence of whale, dolphins or seals? Have cancer-causing chemicals been detected in the fish feed? #BloodSalmon @Tinganes https://t.co/T9CdZBAzox pic.twitter.com/vpn3e8mJOe
