"The company announced the U-turn yesterday after a two-month campaign from Greenpeace that saw activists dress up as sharks and play the Jaws theme tune outside the Princes headquarters in Liverpool."


Bravo activists, including Greenpeace (who recently achieved a related success with Costco), and Fish Fight
