When Bruce Sandison of The Salmon Farm Protest Group blew the whistle on the illegal dumping of diseased salmon in North Uist back in 2005, I bet he didn't think Whiteshore Cockles would still be raising a stink nearly two decades later.
The Times reported in July 2021:
Another report by The Times in May 2021 has led to the threat of legal action by Angus MacDonald, boss of Whiteshore Cockles.

That was cheaper than paying to get it ensiled (treated with formic acid). It’s believed that the Minister recently flipped her lid, maybe @MairiGougeon or @MairiMcAllan will comment if we ask them nicely.
