Bad fish
A British trawler has sparked an international row after being filmed with allegedly endangered fish caught in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea and then dumping the majority overboard in uk waters. Norwegian government coastguards filmed the crew of the Prolific, openly discarding more than 5,000 kg of cod and other dead white fish, or nearly 80 per cent of its catch. The incident took place on August 2 but the video only came to light ten days after the incident.
Norwegian minister for fisheries and coastal affairs Helga Pedersen said
