Rare praise for ASDA

It's a great rarity for me to be heard praising any member of the dysfunctional "Wal-Mart family" but Cod taken off the shelves at Asda to preserve stocks is surely worth some. Well done ASDA.

Don't get me wrong, I love cod. But I love it too much to see the ugly great brutes (and especially the uglier little tyke young'uns now being taken) eradicated by over-fishing.

That's a good move.

Cod is one of the few fish I actually like, but I try not to eat it simply becaue it will die out if we're not careful.

I also have little sympathy for the fishing industry when they complain that we should protect fishing and not reduce the fishing fleet. We won't have any fishing fleet if there's no fish left!
