Animal rights campaigners are urging Michael Gove to stop the construction of the UK’s first fully on-land salmon farm, claiming the decision to give it planning permission was flawed.

Animal Equality says an environmental impact assessment (EIA) should have been carried out before North East Lincolnshire council (NELC) gave the green light to the salmon farm in Cleethorpes, which it says would be the world’s biggest at land or sea.

These are animal rights activists, they are vegans who oppose any project that involves keeping animals for food. I don't always disagree with them, but they will always be opposed to any project like this. Where some of us see grey, they only see black and white
