"I will be defending Mowi's legal action in the strongest terms," said award-winning campaigner Don Staniford in a press statement replying to Mowi's press release (7 October 2021).
"Secret filming shot inside Mowi's salmon farms in July has revealed the welfare nightmare of Scottish salmon farming – with over 1 million Instagram followers of Seaspiracy viewing the video footage and many millions more on Netflix watching the horror that is RSPCA Assured Mowi salmon. Given the gruesome nature of welfare abuse, mass mortalities and lice infestations it is not surprising that this Norwegian-owned behemoth wants to stop the public from finding out the ugly truth about Scottish salmon. Thankfully, the truth always wins out in the end and I look forward to debating these vital legal issues in open court. In the meantime, people are encouraged to watch the new Kate Winslet-narrated film 'Eating Our Way to Extinction' – available to watch now on AppleTV, iTunes, You Tube, Google Play and Amazon – which features shocking video footage of the underbelly of Scottish salmon."
