Are migrant workers from around the world. Often, these workers have families to support back home workers like joel. Joel was an experienced fisherman.

But you had no experience fishing or at sea at all? onlyjoel had fished before, yet here they all were, recruited through agencies, ready to go to sea. The men travelled months apart but it was the same journey to the same place annan, a small town in scotland s southern coast and the premises of tn trawlers. Its owners, the nicholson family, have lived in the town for generations. They re in with the bricks. Its lead director, tom nicholson. He owns much of the harbour here and lives in a substantial compound on the waterfront. At the time, he ran a fishing operation worth over £4 million. The filipino men were here to
Where it says it is. It s kind of funny, i ve been charging around this bit of sea a bit like a mad person. I thought it was a brilliant adventure that he was going on. But once i started seeing some of his reports of the faroe islands, i suddenly thought, this is actually quite scary. What he s doing is probably quite dangerous. Wind gusts the winds gone a bit crazy. The sea is mental. Probably be about six metre high waves. It looks maybe more than that. There are warnings of gales in viking, north utsira, south utsira, forties. . . The shipping forecast in the uk is the world s first storm warning system. . . Southeasterly seven to severe gale nine. . . It covers an area from the south coast of iceland and mid atlantic in the west, to the danish coast in the east, right down to the north coast of africa. The funny thing about the shipping forecast is that i think so few people understand its actual meaning or relevance, but so many people love it and enjoy listening to it. Whilst i
As a default setting. Social media companies have been under growing pressure to protect children from harmful online content. Heres our Technology Editor zoe kleinman. Instagram already claims to have more than 50 tools aimed at keeping teens safe on its platform. But so far, the problem of children being exposed to harmful content has not been resolved. Well, i dont know if its social media, but i think as parents we should have the right to see it. An Ofcom Study earlier this year found that every single child it spoke to had seen violent material online. Instagram was one of the platforms they mentioned the most. The new measures aim put more control into the hands of parents. Accou nts accounts belonging to anyone under the age of 18 are made private by default. Now, if someone under 16 wants to make an account public, they have to add a parent to approve it, and that perak will be able to see who they message which topics they follow. Notifications will be muted overnight, and yo
Beyond of that, there will be, of course, a period of deliberation. And given the complexity and the scale of this case, based on how many charges there are, and i should say that while there were 115 originally, it has been reported that that may have expanded to around 130, not because there are additional allegations of wrongdoing, but more because they re effectively multiples of original charges over various seasons. The premier league are simply not clarifying the case, but regardless, it s a sprawling case over 1a seasons, and so it would be surprising if there wasn t a significant period of time dedicated to considering the verdict by that three person panel. So, estimates have ranged from any time in the new year all the way through to spring. And of course, it s not beyond the realms, perhaps, that some kind of compromise, some kind of arrangement or deal may be reached because the legal bill is spiraling tens of millions of pounds. It s estimated to have cost both sides alr
