As fishing makes up a tiny amount of the UK economy, we could easily just close the waters to any foreign vessel. Just call it a large nature reserve. As the EU have insisted that fishing is in any trade negotiations, then it seems to me it's more important to them as it is to us.

We could try that but it seems a bit unlikely. Binning our entire fishing industry seems like a bad PR move.

If we tried that we'd probably end up having to deploy what Navy we have to enforce it and end up trading it for something like banking passporting rights.

Yeah but Iceland slapped us in the cod wars

Also Euro 2016

And a deserved win it was. God England were utterly woeful that day.

We get to run our own affairs without a foreign power meddling. Its called independance.

What 'foreign power are you alluding to?

We kick out all foreign owned fishing vessels from our waters.
Our fishing waters are a unique asset. And its ours to plunder.
Not some french frog sitting in paris.

You do realise that most of the traditional fish that were in British waters have migrated north, don't you?

Iceland is now the beneficiary of warming seas...

We've got 'foreign invaders' to look forward to now...

So you'll have to get used to squid and chips

Same way that Iceland will have to kiss goodbye to it's tourist industry when it becomes Greenland (oh my bad that names taken)

Hell fire you still here ? I'm shocked your still in this country you hate it so much. I was so happy with your leaving post ....here it is ........"After a few days of deliberation following the election, myself and my family have decided that england is no longer for us so I am now a 'quitter'!

We have just booked our one way tickets out of here to my partner's country, along with a cargo container for our belongings...

Timed so that our youngest gets exams done and dusted, and I can get the equivalent of 'settled status' over there before the cut off point..

Along with two elder siblings, england will have lost two medics (one having completed studies and the other still in a foreign Uni), along with an exceptional linguist (in three languages so far and brushing up on two more)...

It will be quite a big financial hit for us, but we've decided to wave goodbye to the very substantial amounts we've contributed to the UK economy and the pensions we will lose...

Because we no longer wish to live in the xenophobic/nationalistic/racist country that england has become. A country that I was born in and where we have raised our family...
(and if you're wondering mottie, a 'white' indigenous person who can trace his english ancestry back to 1745 )

But as we cross into international airspace, I will be thinking...

Goodbye and Good riddance!

Your quite correct .........but really what a strange post to put together .....what I wonder did he get from it .........perhaps some sense of self importance ........

How I wish it was true .........maybe he's gone but can't resist coming on here and spouting drivel ........he has a really weird thinking process.

I'm sure it's the same poster as ImamartIan, walkswithturkeys and wannabediy maybe one or two others as well, they all seem to have the same self congratulatory tone.
