MT @Wildlife_Jason "I got krills & they're not multiplying, we'd better shape up!" (Sung to a classic Grease song!) #fishfight :)

No krill on our menu tonight but could penguins take to our prawn head crispies ? #fishfight


Fascinating to see how krill are caught. Good work KEO films. #fishfight

I'm looking for investors my boat a bit small If Hugh sells this right we should have a fleet of 10 by end the year #eatkrill

80% of that #krill ends up in petfood or animal feed. How many consumers know that? #fishfight

Using the phrase " imagine if,,," to scaremonger!!. I like to "Imagine if" I won the Lottery!! But hey! @FishFight

1000 should get the market going #eatmorekrill pic.twitter.com/AVGIekGrHo

@butterflyfillet yes that's the differance we couldn't supply the country without some levels of imports,but flooding our market is to much

@DevonScallops totally agree, see previous tweet. Need a spokesperson to get on air and state real facts.

Odd to see scientists resistant to backing marine protection. Not a good look #fishfight Marine protection is small change to govt really..


Its a shame when conservationists are put in a position where they have to lie for the sake of funding. #fishfight #ironic

£3 million a year! He could almost pay for that himself!! #fishfight
