flag A Northern Ireland fisherman sues the government over pollution harming Lough Neagh, threatening its ecosystem and fishing industry.

flag A Northern Ireland eel fisherman, Declan Conlon, has launched a High Court challenge against the government, accusing it of failing to protect Lough Neagh from severe pollution caused by agricultural runoff and untreated sewage. flag The lake, once home to Europe’s largest wild eel fishery, now suffers from toxic algal blooms, ecosystem collapse, and health risks, leading to the suspension of eel fishing in 2025. flag Conlon argues that outdated, unenforced plans have allowed pollution to persist despite clear environmental harm and widespread public concern. flag The case, backed by environmental groups, seeks to compel urgent, science-based action to restore the lake, highlighting years of political inaction and institutional failure.
