20% of our fish is 20% too much. Give them sweet FA Boris. If they want our fish let them buy them off us after WE have caught them. Start building those trawlers . May should have done so, better late than never though.

With the news of the dud leaving these are now a big buy 10 years of a fraud and the chairman and directors have been silent the new guy should now know they are not needed and can get rid of 40%of them

Max, I had to look the bloke up because we are living in such weird times it would not be beyond belief for a UK minister to say such a thing. Between Boris and the electorate, quite a good job was done of dealing with the remoaners, but there are still plenty of them lurking under their rocks.

Keith DH30 Nov 2020 10:01PMHave you noticed how the Irish are now complaining about us not wanting to have a longer transition?  What would be the point?  It's taken 4 years to achieve the grand total of sweet FA.  Hang on, I've a great idea.  Let's take another 2 years, contribute £30bln more to the chavs in Brussels just so we can keep talking about talks. Er, no thank you.Time's up.  Walk away and then negotiate an FTA as a free, independent country in FULL control of it's own water with proper maritime protection to ENFORCE it.  Any EU boats caught will be impounded and only released after large fines are paid.  2nd convictions will results in jail time.I'd rather be slightly poorer than be taking rules from the EU....

1st week December = crunch week 1
2nd week December = crunch week 2
3rd week December = crunch week 3
4th week December = crimbo
Then we've left CU/Single Market and can look forward to a Sovereign New Year free of the EU Super-state that swallows up nations and spits them out.

Anybody think another extension deadline coming?...

[grahamite2] 01/12/2020 08:59

It might be helpful to explain, Max, that Simon Coveney is not our foreign affairs minister, but some Irish politician. As such only nonsense is to be expected from him on any EU subject.

Agreed. My first dog died Jan 4 1994. Burned into my heart. She was a stray. Had her 15 years. She was called Scruff !!!

‘Ridiculous’ to blame EU, says Simon Coveney as Brexit trade deal goes down to wire


Paul O’Donoghue| Guy Faulconbridge| Conor Humphries
Tuesday December 01 2020, 12.01am, The Times



It is “ridiculous” for the EU to be blamed for the high level of uncertainty over a trade deal so close to the end of the Brexit transition period, the foreign affairs minister has said.

Simon Coveney said the EU had repeatedly offered the UK a chance to extend the Brexit transition period but this was not taken up.

Although the UK formally left the EU at the end of January it will continue to abide by its trade rules until December 31.

This transition period was intended to give the UK and EU time to negotiate a trade deal that would be in place by the end of the year in order to avoid difficulties between them in 2021. However, while both sides have


More €U tripe here:

TBH I can't be bothered with politicians, they're all a set of selfish lying b*stards that I wouldn't trust to take my dog for a walk (and he's been dead this last 20 years)

[scruff1] 01/12/2020 08:29

I dont understand the motive for talking such tripe when there are so many topics to choose from. Even Llloy !! Most interesting topic at moment to me is Labours refusal to be an Opposition in case they are held to account. Starmers great idea was a quick short circuit breaker over the school holidays. Worked out well in Wales didnt it

A new UK fishing industryBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: NOVEMBER 28, 2020Remembering past experiences of EU negotiations some fear another sell out of our fish. Unrelenting Remain supporters tell us as the fishing industry is so small, we should make concessions to secure other unspecified advantages in a general agreement. If the industry is as unimportant as they say it is to us, why would the EU be so keen to win concessions on it?Isn't the truth that it is small today for the UK only because most of our fish are taken by continental boats and often taken away for processing far from our shores?Fish is one of many important wins from Brexit for the UK. It is also totemic, because most agree our membership of the EEC, now the EU, came with the sacrifice of our once large and healthy fishing industry. We have gone from good surplus and plenty of stock in our seas, to overfishing from abroad and an astonishing net deficit in fish.The government needs to take action to make the most of this opportunity. They must of course hold firm in negotiations and refuse to make any sacrifice of our fish. A Free Trade Agreement makes sense for the EU, so there is no need to sweeten the deal with a gift of fish.The government should also get on with the following policiesAnnounce freeports, including our best fishing harbours, with favourable tax and regulatory conditions to found and grow a high quality food processing industry on the back of more landed fish.Offer a fund to finance or guarantee finance on the purchase of new vessels from a UK yard or second hand vessels from a non UK owner, to undertake a rapid expansion of the UK fishing fleet.Offer more training and training support packages to people wishing to undertake work in the industry.Add Enterprise Zones to our Freeports, encouraging food manufacturers to make up great fish recipes, provide frozen product and help identify new markets for our food at home and abroad.I am sending this to the government for consideration.
