The SNP’s anti-fishing bill threatens to decimate our fishing industry and Scotland’s valuable crofting communities.

The current plans must be scrapped.

The Scottish Government should go back to the drawing board and communities must have a say 👇 thescottishfarmer.co.uk/news/23515316.…

He says there is no cultural difference between Scottish & English cities; & 'Rural life in England is much the same as in Scotland.' WHAT? No Crofting, Cèilidh, Celtic music, Shinty, Tartan, Gaelic, Scots or Doric in England! Only Gammon & intolerance. theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

A reminder to residents and visitors with #pet #dogs . Lambing is underway. Please keep your dogs on leads at ALL times. #Crofting is a livelihood and any #lamb lost through dog-worrying is a blow. Crofters may shoot any dog found worrying sheep. #retweet

Just finished Jim Hunter's riveting 'The Making of the Crofting Community'. Nearly 50 years after its publication it still feels like a seminal work.

I can't recommend it highly enough for anyone with an interest in Highlands & Islands history, or in contemporary land reform.

First lamb in Craigstrome today, had to be pulled by Anna our resident crofter! 🙌💪🏼 #lambing #crofting #benbecula #spring

Crofting in the Shiant Isles has its roots in ancient Gaelic culture. The practice of working the land collectively has fostered a strong sense of community and sustainable living. It's inspiring to see how these traditions have stood the test of time. 🌿🤝 #ShiantIsles

The Outer Hebrides are home to a huge number of sheep and crofting is a big part of our island heritage.
