Even bigger idiots allowed French industrial trawlers to fish almost

I don't know much about fish stocks or the CFP.But I have stopped
believing unreferenced claims from brexiters. there has been too much
fakery of facts.

Facts, claims, pah. Forget databases and spreadsheets.

Just stand on the cliffs and look out to sea, listen to the marine band
radio and hear the small fishermen saying they are now reduced to just
swapping diesel for fish the stocks are so low, or go onto any port or
shore with smallish fishing boats and talk to the skippers. Industrial
trawlers should not be allowed inshore. I hope the two gunboats that I
understand are being built are ready in time and have enough ammunition.

It's not just the south coast, it's all around the British Isles,
wherever there was a decent small fishing industry.

To repeat what I said in another thread, the lady MP for Grimsby secured
a debate, or hearing, on wolf whistling in Westminster Hall. That will
have really impressed the ex-fishermen of Grimsby.
