Dumping of fish in British Sector of the North Sea   
Watch how the brand new Shetland trawler "Prolific"

is "fertilizing the sea" with 5 tonnes of fish, that would have been good
for human consumption:

The Norwegian Coast Guard could only watch and record, as this criminal act
took place in the British sector of the North Sea. Had this occurred only a
few miles longer east, in the Norwegian sector, where the fish was caught,
those fishermen would have been brought to justice.

The reason for this, is that such dumping of edible fish has been deemed
criminal by the Norwegians for 20 years now, while the European Union
not only allows this environmentally destructive waste, but still goes for
it as "the right thing to do"!

We certainly do not want to see any "proliferation" of this behaviour :-(

When shall they wake up and follow us Norwegians?
