Better fits here ^
Though i still think the origin of these vids can be found in an eastern part of the world
It is so ridiculous to let it all fail because of this "fish" idiocy, while i am not sure whether there is not another problem called jingoism. Threats to actually use force against non-UK fishing boats, really?
Can we build a fish wall in the North sea, some signs for cods to not pass it, or give them blue passports?
Fish adds about 0,1 to 0,4 percent of the british economy ok.
So it is a national treasure, or most important, or interlocked with pride and patriotism, whatever. I better not say what i think of such .. ok let it be.
I read 90 percent of the UK fished by british trawlers is being sold to the EU.
10 percent of the british fish catches is consumed within the UK.
The "rest" of the fish, which is much more, has already been sold to the EU for a decade to come, in asmuch the UK has sold a good part of their fish in form of permits to Denmark, the Dutch, and France, and some other nations in the EU,
for a lot of money.
So i ask again, what happens to those treaties? They paid, built up their fishing fleets for a lot of money relying on the UK, and now what? The dutch being a bit angry is an understatement.
And when the UK has ramped up their own fishing fleet for a lot of money in ten years or so to be even able to do all the fishing alone, they will have to sell all this fish. To the EU. As they do now.
