Closed Ban all fishing in UK waters, except rod and line, for 5 years.

Closed on

Recognise the importance of life in our oceans as critical to our own survival on land. Defend our natural environment and thus society, from collapse. Ban all net fishing vessels from UK waters. Furlough fisherman. Review fishing and labelling standards. Finance independent surveys on fish stocks.

We need drastic change now, supported by the Government and the Navy, to protect UK waters from all commercial fishing and pollution. Maybe even ban fish from being sold in the UK for 5 years too. We need to protect all ocean life to ensure the future survival of all species, which includes humans.

The time for drastic action is now. The consequences of inaction will be absolute.
