You might want to start purging a few posts that lay the blame at the feet of a person or company - here and elsewhere.
If you get my drift.
You haven't seen all the evidence! Only a few people have.

All sorts of reading being done on this. Dangerously high oxygen levels can be the result of too much Hydrogen Peroxide, it seems. When D-DAS tested, the oxygen level in Lavender was a lot higher than the other lakes.

This Golden Algae is sometimes found in estuaries where there is salt water or closed lakes very close to the sea, so it seems.
I wonder if it could be spread by sea birds like Cormorants!!!!!!!!!
I doubt anyone would admit it!!!!!!!!

Churchill's been vindicated then? Damned nature!
As far as I can see, the tests so far are on the water samples. Waiting for test results on the dying fish! They have to be tested while alive. The dead duck was burned, so no post mortem possible.
People who saw the dead fish are sceptical about the initial EA findings.
Not sure if there are likely to be survivors yet.
The lock that was glued up was definitely down to a Churchill operative!

EA initial test results suggest Golden Algae is to blame, Prymnesium Parvum, very rare but often the cause of deaths in lakes close to the sea.
"We have now received preliminary results from our water quality and algae samples that were taken from the fishery last week. The water quality and chemistry results show nothing out of the ordinary or anything that would suggest that there has been any polluting matter introduced to the lake that could result in a fish mortality.
Analysis of the algal sample found a high algal abundance with some spiky form diatoms present and also golden algae and dinophytes. The latter two have been associated with unexplained fish kills in very low abundance. That coupled with an overall high algal abundance will most likely be causing dissolved oxygen fluctuations which can also result in fish kills occurring.
Our visual checks of the fish also suggest that the most likely cause of the mortality was the algae present in the lake at the time. As we receive final confirmation of all results we will let you know.
Kind regards,"

A further issue:- CEFAS thought they found a couple of Prussian Carp among the dead fish, seems there have been other reports of this invasive species that appears to have very dominant genes that take over from whatever others they hybridize with. The EA are trying to find out where they are coming from. I have never bought any Crucians at all.

It was me, not the Police, that were called Good Friday morning.
Plod are waiting for EA test results, before they do anything.
It has got a crime number, though!

I was fairly sure they do council work!

Carp, no Catfish!
A chap was kicked off about a month ago and the gate lock was glued up a week later. He works for a toilet cleaning company named Churchill !!!

Suspected fish poisoning incident near Weymouth, Dorset. Beware of someone driving a van with Churchill, a cleaning company, on the side.

A chap did pretty good on my place using some 'smoky mackerel' flavoured boilies.

The most cormorants I've seen at Radipole recently is 8, a few years ago it was nearer 80.

I think the Angling Trust have ideas about taking on the work of the EA. I know one chap who said he was going on an Angling Trust bailiff course.

I saw a mention of a certain species had been all but wiped out by bird flu in South Africa.
I only see them when there is a strong westerly wind that makes my place less strenuous for them to get to instead of The Fleet.
-
There seem to be hardly any Cormorants roosting at Radipole Lake in Weymouth recently. BIRD FLU??????
-
Still around!

Perhaps I'm out of touch, but why does the Angling Trust employ 'Enforcement Officers' ?????

First jim just what has my income tax got to do with Russia ? As for money you would be shafted without it ask them who struggle every week I have being there know all about that and you say all the cash being sent home what about all the brits working round EU probably on substantial more correction will be on substantial more cash than those working here how much do they send back here I know many lads in oil game on mega bucks working in the EU those immigrants you are about pay uk tax and national insurance plenty of rotting fruit in the fields this year due foreign labour shortages you don't fancy busting your back to Help those fruit growers out the farmers could do with a few volunteers .
Just wondering how the Socialist Tax-and-Spend way of life that you seem to want, affected you, or whether you were one of those that thinks it wouldn't affect them.
Got any figure for money sent home by Brits working abroad, and I don't mean all the stuff that the oil workers bank offshore to avoid tax. Over 10 years ago there was a figure of £2.3Bn a year being sent back to Poland, published. That's money that could have been spent providing jobs in this country. They send more back than they pay in tax.
When I went to Germany in 1968, there was a £50 limit on what I could take. Part of that was the train fare.
Then there's those chaps selling the Big Issue who have built luxury homes back home in Romania.
As far as graft is concerned, try carrying 5,000 bricks a day up a ladder. Done it and got the T-shirt.

Gorbachev was comparing the institutions and the political agendas of the ruling elite, not the living standards of us plebs. The French, especially, hate the US and the EU goal is a Socialist superstate to challenge America. It won't work, we all know that, but they are willing to have us go through the same sort of control freakery that the people of the USSR had to go through for 70 years before it collapsed. The UK will possibly be the first domino.

Jim you cannot actually believe the EU is like the Soviet Union really I have heard many reasons to brexit but that one was picked out of a lucky bag have you actually ever been to the Soviet Union the poverty not so bad nowadays compared to years ago I say this your a very lucky man not to be living there compared to what you have here .
You can only think about money, it seems. How much income tax have you paid in recent years?
Just wait and see what "ever closer union" means. All the money that is sent back home by the immigrants, "redistribution of wealth" socialists call it. Conscription into a European Army for your grandchildren. You are deluded if you don't think it is planned.
-
So you think that a quote and an appeal to authority wins you an argument?
Big Cod seems to think so.
-
To compare the EU to Russia is incredible infact its behind that how the hell you can compare the two to be similar just beggars belief the standard of living between the two is ten million miles apart in favour of the EU ..
Someone more qualified than you would disagree:
"The EU is the old Soviet Union dressed in Western clothes.”
