Islanders turned out in force in a massive protest on South Uist after being cut off from the mainland for over a month in peak holiday season
.
Business leaders were told there will be no compensation from the Scottish Government for a month-long cancellation of services - although the saga of issues on the route was allegedly killing livelihoods worse than lockdown. The Lochboisdale Ferry Business Impact Group organised the protest as a "show of solidarity against the constant abuse of our ferry service and our community".
"CalMac effectively decide which islands survive and which don't. I think there should be a management change at CalMac. He runs a renewable energy company which supplies wind turbines to help make homes self-sufficient, on South Uist. Last year Lochboisdale was out of action to ferries between September 24 and October 8 to allow for repairs to the linkspan used by the ferry.Other recent factors included ferries being put in service, and drafted onto other routes.
