Sir,
Have there been any gull attacks in Arran? Has North Ayrshire got the right to threaten us with fines if we feed the seagulls – are we turning into a nanny state? It is not a very friendly sign to be met with on a holiday island. If there is a proven gull problem on Arran I would suggest an informative sign without the threat of a fine.
I often tip the remains of my fish supper on the beach for the gulls. I have never found them to be overly aggressive and think I should be able to feed the gulls without threats of fines from North Ayrshire.
