Apparently there are 12,000 fisherman in the UK (2018 figures). Are we assuming that this figure will shoot up if we get exclusive use of our waters and, if so, will that be greater than the number of jobs we will lose because of tariffs etc.
Is the argument about territorial waters, more "little Englander" talk then economic reasoning. I suspect its more isolationist dogma that I'm getting increasingly bored with.

We could employ 200,000 in the fishing fleet, still got no market to sell the catch too. |

Then more of us should enjoy a delightful fish supper to help out. In fact sea food of any kind. Eat trout to kelp out |

A fish supper washed down with a half pint of a local ale- great idea. |

I won't say no to some kippers if they are on offer. A great way to start the day.

If you feel the need to have your faith restored in American politics, All4 are now showing the West Wing in all its glory. I think it's the best US drama I have seen.
