"The reality is that vast majority of our fish are extremely healthy" claims head vet @scotseafarms (chair of the SSPCA) https://t.co/d1EDMto0q1

"Almost all salmon farms in Scotland are members of the RSPCA assurance scheme & are regularly inspected to check compliance" claims @GreenerScotland https://t.co/d1EDMtFBhz
Yet @rspcaassured suspended on-site salmon farm inspections in March 2020! https://t.co/bLZPKNTcqe pic.twitter.com/oc612XByAL— Don Staniford (@TheGAAIA) March 23, 2021
