Well it sounds as though EU boats will still be fishing in UK waters, so more lies from Farage on the issue. Perhaps he would have had a better understanding if he had attended more than 1 in 40 meetings of the CFP committee that he sat on.

UK fishermen may not win 'waters back' after Brexit, EU memo reveals:

You're right, nothing, so we'll ignore his lies to the electorate, and listen to the EU instead

Is he or was he PM at any point ? Seeing how we havent even triggered A50 yet anything is just guess work as to what may happen, do you understand what negeotiations are ?

It must be a really dark place you live in looking at the worse case senario every day perhaps some medication would help, why dont you start some threads about real here and now problems such as housing costs, dealing with old age or how to get the brits to fill all the jobs going

As a keen bass angler.Living in a coastal community.I fish all spring and summer long.The problem i see is that neither the EU or UK push for sustainable fishing.The practices of discarding catch and fishing spawning grounds are the big issues.Only last summer did they ban fishing the bass spawning grounds for the first time.However it isnt enforced.They do try and enforce people like me taking no more than one sea bass per day and i only can fish legally from july for bass.I only take legal size bass.While the trawlers dump dead undersized sea bass and unwanted species into the sea.Its all fucked up.Such a wasteful and short sighted policy.Rant over.

"If it says we MAY not get the waters back it's also means we MAYget them back so why the moan wen no one knows yet so why the panic ?"

Because many people voted based on the propaganda they were fed that we would "take back control". And if we 'may' or 'may not' get waters back, then what has been pointed out is that the UK might not be able to take back control in this aspect.

It is a proposal by MEPs to put in the exit agreement. i.e the agreement that is going to be negotiated over the next 2 years.

They could put in a proposal for increased immigration, free access to the NHS for all eu citizens and doubling of the membership fee.

That is why it says 'May' . e.g a non-story for most people, but great wank fodder for some.

But its not just one thing that has turned out to be bollocks though is it?

Did you know that the £350m a week for the NHS was rubbish?

Did you know that inflation was going to rise?

Did you know that Sterling was going to crash?

Did you know that we would need £92bn of monetary and fiscal policy measures?

Did you know that a £700m blackhole would appear in our defence budget?

Did you know that UK academics would be excluded from research projects?

Did you know that university applications would fall?

Did you know that the Department of Energy and Climate Change would be scrapped?

Did you know that the pension age was going to increase?

This thing hasn't turned out to be bollocks. Some MEPs have proposed asking for the fishing agreements to stay the same. You've posted it as a given. It isn't.

Looking on the politics forum has become boring, it's the same person saying negative news which they read from same type of media which wanted us to stay in the EU. A lot of us who voted for brexit wanted a hard brexit that means just trading in imports and exports with no secret meetings with the EU.

Well having a thread dealing with 10 points or whatever is clearly nonesense. So let's not divert this one. By all means start new threads on each.

So let's deal with them 1 by 1, starting with this latest bit of hysteria.

It is a proposal by some MEPs to potentially put in the negotiations for the exit agreement.

You have jumped on it, because you like the sound of it.

It is a proposal, of which there will be lots. It does not mean it will happen.

"May

What Farage actually said was that gaining back control of our fishing waters would be a barometer by which he would measure the success of Brexit by. The control of our fishing waters will all be up for negotiations after article 50 is triggered, depending how those negotiations develop we may get control over our fishing waters back or we may not. Do you even understand how the concept of a negotiation works? (It seems you don't from your posts). Also Farage is not the Prime minister or even in the government, he won't be part of the government's negotiations team and he wasn't even part of the official 'Vote Leave' campaign (he was in the Grassroots out campaign and the Leave.EU campaign). However if Farage was involved in the negotiations I suspect a red line for him would be the UK having full control over its own territorial fishing waters.

You really need me to answer if Farage was or is PM? That's the question that you are dying to know the answer too? Or is it about negotiations? Yes I know how they work, unlike a lot here who believe you never tell the otherside what you want, which is quite frankly ridiculous. I can't believe any successful negotiation has ever worked based upon the other party successfully reading your mind and giving you that.

What we do know is that David Cameron's attempt at renegotiation with the EU was pathetic and turned into a complete failure. If there is a model out there of how not to do a negotiation it's clueless Cameron's negotiation model.

So we can either stick with what we've got, or start breaking our international agreements.

Your premise is false. The uk can control it's own fishing waters and still meet its commitments on sustainable fishing to abide by United Nations rules and we can still meet our international agreements with regards to that.

As said on the thread control of our territorial fishing waters will be part of negotiations once article 50 is triggered.

You've still not answered the question Bunandbuck put forward.....is what you've said just a proposal put forward by some MEP's? A simple yes or No will do.

By the same token Ukip MEP's could table their own proposal that the UK should have full control over its own territorial fishing waters, and still abide by United Nations rules on sustainable fishing. It would still only be a proposal.

British trawler men are as feckless as the french or the Spanish.I know a few. These quotas are irrelevant.Its not what you land its what you pull out of the sea and thats many times the allocation.The ban on discard for pelagic only came in last year still ignored by some .However there is little discard for pelagic.The real waste is the cod bass and hake this ban is on hold til 2019.Who knows what will happen now as this was agreed before brexit.

Is it me or is this not a story? We "may" not get control?? And put the words after brexit before it and suddenly all the scare mongering remain supporters wave it like a flag Infront of all the realistic leave supporters??

Anything in the world that happened after June 23rd is after Brexit, and not the fault of brexit, but that doesn't sell papers, (it's the man bites dog syndrome!!!) but there are people that still want to believe all the media led frustration that you actually didn't get your own way and this is now a pathetic way to continue to confuse, and get in the way of a very important process that we are now definitely going through, and apparently it's the leavers that believe everything they are told or read????

After brexit, we may all have to walk around naked singing songs from the music hall, while holding a copy of cliff Richards greatest hits!!!!!!!

But then again we may not???

aka 'Yes' it is a proposal. So the thread is flawed form the outset.

Also, you have jumped to a wrong conclusion in your paragraph. 'Sticking with what we've got' is just one solution, there are others aka we control what we do and how. For example, do you think discard of dead fish is a good implementation? I don't, it is obscene. What do you think about discarding caught fish? Is there a better way?

Let's face it the government can be bought and they say we should hate Russia but why? Would the EU be allowed to fish in Russia waters? We blame Russia killing people but didn't our government and USA do the same? Why should we hate trump because the media told us to and what grab them by the pussy didn't anyone watch that video which him and his friend was chatting about girls but don't we all do it on fab our preferences.

It's what Teresa May has outlined in her Brexit speech at Lancaster house. I for one think it is the right way forward, Teresa May deserves a huge amount of credit.

"Come on for gods sake do u realy think the British public r so stupid that they thought everything they heard and read was100percent true on either side I wudnt change my vote even if I knew we wudnt get the waters back and don't think many wud there we AV to b a lot of give and take on both sides

But its not just one thing that has turned out to be bollocks though is it?

Did you know that the £350m a week for the NHS was rubbish?

Did you know that inflation was going to rise?

Did you know that Sterling was going to crash?

Did you know that we would need £92bn of monetary and fiscal policy measures?

Did you know that a £700m blackhole would appear in our defence budget?

Did you know that UK academics would be excluded from research projects?

Did you know that university applications would fall?

Did you know that the Department of Energy and Climate Change would be scrapped?

Did you know that the pension age was going to increase?"

Did you know that the £350m a week for the NHS was rubbish? Yes - apparently you're the only one that didn't.

Did you know that inflation was going to rise? Yes - the BoE has been telling us this for the last 4 or 5 years.

Did you know that Sterling was going to crash? The IMF, the OECD AND the BoE all said before the referendum that sterling was overvalued by up to 20%

Did you know that we would need £92bn of monetary and fiscal policy measures? And yet the EU are still pumping into their economy £60 Billion PER MONTH

Did you know that a £700m blackhole would appear in our defence budget?

Did you know that UK academics would be excluded from research projects? And yet the Government is putting in an extra £4.7 Billion into R&D between now and 2020 - an increase of 20%. This will be stbilised at £2 Billion p.a. from 2020. The EU puts in £730 p.a.

Did you know that university applications would fall? And yet universities are oversubscribed - again.

Did you know that the Department of Energy and Climate Change would be scrapped? Would you like to also comment about the way in which climate change scientists and experts have been falsifying data for years? (What's that? Fake News?!!!) "The fiddling with temperature data is the biggest science scandal ever"

Did you know that the pension age was going to increase? Yes, we've been told this for years, and it is inevitable with longer life expectations.

Now maybe you could tell us the following

Where is the emergency £30 Billion budget?

Where is the immediate recession?

Where is the stock market collapse?

Where is the 20% fall in house prices?

Where is the predicted war?

Are the EU not planning an EU army ('defence force')?

Where are the 500,000 job losses by the end of 2017, and 3,000,000 by the end 2020?

Where is the 3.6% drop in GDP 'within a year' of a brexit vote?

Where's the 2.8 to 4% drop in wages?

Where is the predicted war? We're already at war!

Are the EU not planning an EU army ('defence force')? If Nato is going pants, do we need an army? Or is this a band :s

I'll answer:

I am...

It may seem wasteful but remember just about all fish eat fish therefore what goes back gets quickly recycled. As well as this we have to remember why all the quotas and minimum fish and net sizes were introduce. Prior to regulation many of the traditional fisheries had been fished out and populations had collapsed. The truth is that although stock levels are recovering they are nowhere near as healthy as they need to be. Therefore we can neither relax or change the regulations unless we wish to return to the fishing stock crisis of the 70's.

Across most of the world they do not have quotas or dump fish. Across most of the world the nets are in creasing in size (volume) and becoming finer. Across most of the world shallow water inshore fisheries that used to support coastal communities are becoming baron and the race is on to hoover up the last remaining fish. The EU CFP has been a beacon of light in an otherwise bleak seascape. There is a reason why the Russians and Chinese have factory ships and distant fishing fleets to keep them supplied in the north and South Atlantic, its because they have already destroyed their home water fisheries.

They could put in a proposal for increased immigration, free access to the NHS for all eu citizens and doubling of the membership fee.

That is why it says 'May' . e.g a non-story for most people, but great wank fodder for some."

Well you have failed to provide any evidence that the discards are purely a result of the EU, and not a fairly normal part of fishing. How about I provide you with evidence to the contrary and maybe you will change your mind after reading it. This evidence is from the Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations.

Bangladesh has discard rates of around 80%. Madagascar has discard rates of 72%. Morocco has discard rate of 45%. Brazil has discard rate of 22-33%. Trinidad & Tobago has a discard rate of 70-90%. USA has discard rate of 44-83%. Canada discard rates 8-22% Japan has a discard rate of 14.2%, Mexico discard rates 46-76%. Western Water (fished by Irish, French, Spanish and UK fleets) discard rate 60%, North Sea discard rate 20-50%.

I think that this would prove to anyone, that discards are not purely an EU problem, or caused solely by the CFP. You have also failed to produce any evidence that leaving the EU will have any impact on discards by the UK fleet.

With regards to the OP, how have you debunked it? Has anyone on this thread posted any actual proof or evidence that its incorrect? Or are we just supposed to take your word for it?

All the discard you have listed is catch of 'unwanted' or 'uneconomic ' bycatch.

We are throwing back good cod because landing it is not allowed. It is a problem acknowledged by most people ( not you of course).

The debunking comes from the fact that you have posted the story as a fact of what is going to happen. But for the people who bothered to read it, it turns out to be a euro MEP proposal for the negotiations i.e a million miles from a given.

Ok I've answered. So now your turn. Are you happy with our current method of fish stock management i.e discarding cod?

So you believe that a boat goes out. Catches all the cod its allowed, and then, instead of returning and selling that cod whilst its fresh, the boat stays out, keep on fishing, keeps on burning diesel, keeps on paying the crew (who aren't paid by share), and then that boat pulls up its nets, full of cod, and then dumps them back in the sea, again and again and again?

Is that the nature of the fishing industry itself, or EU rules? Are you saying the non-EU fishermen across the whole of the rest of the world dump 0 tons of dead fish?

This evidence is from the Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations.

Bangladesh has discard rates of around 80%. Madagascar has discard rates of 72%. Morocco has discard rate of 45%. Brazil has discard rate of 22-33%. Trinidad & Tobago has a discard rate of 70-90%. USA has discard rate of 44-83%. Canada discard rates 8-22% Japan has a discard rate of 14.2%, Mexico discard rates 46-76%. Western Water (fished by Irish, French, Spanish and UK fleets) discard rate 60%, North Sea discard rate 20-50%.

I think that this would prove to anyone, that discards are not purely an EU problem, or caused solely by the CFP. You have also failed to produce any evidence that leaving the EU will have any impact on discards by the UK fleet.

With regards to the OP, how have you debunked it? Has anyone on this thread posted any actual proof or evidence that its incorrect? Or are we just supposed to take your word for it?

All the discard you have listed is catch of 'unwanted' or 'uneconomic ' bycatch.

We are throwing back good cod because landing it is not allowed. It is a problem acknowledged by most people ( not you of course).

The debunking comes from the fact that you have posted the story as a fact of what is going to happen. But for the people who bothered to read it, it turns out to be a euro MEP proposal for the negotiations i.e a million miles from a given.

Ok I've answered. So now your turn. Are you happy with our current method of fish stock management i.e discarding cod?

So you believe that a boat goes out. Catches all the cod its allowed, and then, instead of returning and selling that cod whilst its fresh, the boat stays out, keep on fishing, keeps on burning diesel, keeps on paying the crew (who aren't paid by share), and then that boat pulls up its nets, full of cod, and then dumps them back in the sea, again and again and again? "

If it's met its cod quota, that's exactly what it does. It has quotas of other species to catch.

Call me old fashioned, but you didn't answer if you were happy with the current method. You just fired in a different question.

I'll actually do what is called an answer:-

Yes, thats what they do, trawling for species they are allowed to land. The cod go back in the sea dead.

Please answer now. Do you think that is the best way?

I think he is possibly unable to think for himself and is trawling the internet for an answer. Discarding valid material until he finds the response he wants

Not quite as bad as that but not far short.

As an typical example: A boat has not reached its quota for, lets say, Cod, but has reached its quota for Haddock. So the said boat, quite rightly, goes out fishing for Cod.

Unfortunately the fisheries boffins have yet to invent a sign for the mouth of the net that the Haddock can understand as "only Cod allowed in" I'm sure if they did some numpty would take it to court as "Haddockist" or something.

Anyway I digress. As the fishing boat trundles up and down the North Sea catching a fair few Cod in the process, those bloody stupid Haddock go and bollox it right up by swimming into the net.

When the net comes back on board the fisherman thinks well that is a nice load of Cod, but if I take those Haddock back into port the "Fishstasi" will be waiting to prosecute and fine me into bankruptcy.

So the fisherman shovels perfectly good Haddock over the side. Oh and don't think they swim off happily to fight another day, they are dead and the only happy chappies in the whole bloody story are hungry seagulls.

There will always be what the fishermen call "rubbish fish" in every net so there will also always be some discarded fish.

However I will bet that all those country's that you quote (with maybe, but only maybe, the USA as an exception) only discard fish with no commercial value. Unlike the lamentably stupid EU that not only condones this practise but forces it onto hard working fishermen.

The common fisheries policy is nothing more than a typical EU dogs breakfast designed only to keep political ego's well and truly polished. It has never done anything remotely useful for fishermen or conservation.

What will happen after Brexit? Who knows how the negotiations will go, but let's leave it at that rather than, as you so like to do, jumping to bloody stupid and ill founded conclusions from one newspaper report about an internal memo that basically says sod all.

"Well it sounds as though EU boats will still be fishing in UK waters, so more lies from Farage on the issue. Perhaps he would have had a better understanding if he had attended more than 1 in 40 meetings of the CFP committee that he sat on.

UK fishermen may not win 'waters back' after Brexit, EU memo reveals:

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/feb/15/uk-fishermen-may-not-win-waters-back-after-brexit-eu-memo-reveals?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboardThe whole world knew that Farage would not be involved in the negotiations and anyway,we do not know the results of the final settlement with the EU.

You are just a totally negative non democratic person who likes to read only one side of the argument which is all crap as I keep telling you,nobody knows what will will happen and you don't- idiot

Yet the basis for your post implies that you do know better than the OP and you do know what the outcome of Brexit will be....."

In what part of that post,

Did you see that implication?

In fact,the post clearly states,

"Nobody knows what will happen"

Maybe it's just me,but I saw that as implying,

Nobody knows what will happen.

.

Please explain,in what way,

did you see that as any kind of implication,that the poster thought they knew better???

Please.

So do believe that after the UK leaves the EU, that UK fishing vessels will be allowed to fish EU waters or not?

My reason for believing that UK fisherman wont be able to fish EU waters is because no other non-EU country is allowed to fish in EU waters.

Fish like mackerel, herring, cod and seabass are highly mobile and, because of our location, we’re always going to have to share our fish with other countries. There is no such thing as british fish they dont respect your silly notions of borders.

Sorry not good enough.

Are you meaning Norway?

Certainly not the Med.

The Baltic? maybe.

The Channel? That's half Britain's anyway.

Have you actually looked at a map of EU waters and then worked out how British boats would get to these grounds (if they even wanted to or had the boats capable of going) and from which ports?

How many long distance boats do you think Britain has these days? The few that are left are mostly either Dutch or Spanish quota hoppers. The vast majority of the (real) British fleet are what are known as "inshore boats" that maybe fish for only a day or two before returning to port.

Even accepting your figure of 111,000 tonnes (which I don't because with your figures there is always a catch) do you realise how small that is when divided up? Thirty or forty boats could catch that, and as above most will be quota hoppers anyway.

The Vidal family mean anything to you?

You are just spouting your usual nonsense and I would much prefer to believe the guys that actually go out and risk their lives on a daily basis and against the odds put fish on our table. Oh and yes most estimates put it at 9 out of 10 of them voted leave.

I would also take the word of a former member of the North Western and North Wales Sea Fisheries Committee. ME.

So you now know what the results of the negeotiations on fishing are now, do you have the lottery numbers for this week too ?

You honestly believe that the UK will ban EU boats fishing our waters, yet the EU will allow UK boats to fish their waters, not bound by quotas or the CFP?

What are you basing this on? What is your evidence to support your assumption?

You stated as a fact that uk fishermen wont be fishing in eu waters or vice versa, that may or may not happen but you have no better idea than anyone what will happen to fishing rules after we leave, you ask for evidence I have none as I havent made any claims other than no one knows, you on the other hand have made a claim and stated it as fact. More false news from remainers

So do believe that after the UK leaves the EU, that UK fishing vessels will be allowed to fish EU waters or not?

My reason for believing that UK fisherman wont be able to fish EU waters is because no other non-EU country is allowed to fish in EU waters.

And exactly what EU waters do you think that British boats actually fish?

The ones where they pull 111,000 tons of fish out of the water every year. You are not going to be daft enough to suggest that Britain is the only country which fishes, or that fish only live in UK waters are you?

Which waters? Be specific please.

Would that be in the Med? or would it be in those EU waters that are only EU because of British membership?

Last time I looked there were no Cornish purse seiners working the Sardines in the Med.

Non-British EU waters.

Sorry not good enough.

Are you meaning Norway?

Certainly not the Med.

The Baltic? maybe.

The Channel? That's half Britain's anyway.

Have you actually looked at a map of EU waters and then worked out how British boats would get to these grounds (if they even wanted to or had the boats capable of going) and from which ports?

How many long distance boats do you think Britain has these days? The few that are left are mostly either Dutch or Spanish quota hoppers. The vast majority of the (real) British fleet are what are known as "inshore boats" that maybe fish for only a day or two before returning to port.

Even accepting your figure of 111,000 tonnes (which I don't because with your figures there is always a catch) do you realise how small that is when divided up? Thirty or forty boats could catch that, and as above most will be quota hoppers anyway.

The Vidal family mean anything to you?

You are just spouting your usual nonsense and I would much prefer to believe the guys that actually go out and risk their lives on a daily basis and against the odds put fish on our table. Oh and yes most estimates put it at 9 out of 10 of them voted leave.

I would also take the word of a former member of the North Western and North Wales Sea Fisheries Committee. ME.

So what is your actual point? "

Don't need to make a point just calling you out on your usual rubbish that you spout on here.

In your OP you make sweeping statements based on one report from a remain biased newspaper about an internal memo the actually said little or nothing.

There is a big world out there, most of it covered in water, you should have a look at it sometime instead of spouting nonsense on here.

Don't expect me to post anything else for a few hours. I'm going back to real life now, although I may take a look later.

Right, so you didn't have a point then. If you cared so little about the livelihoods of 30-40 vessels when you served on the committee, you probably helped the British fishing industry as much as Farage did sitting on the CFP committee. I hope you managed to attend more than 1 in 40 meetings though.

"Well it sounds as though EU boats will still be fishing in UK waters, so more lies from Farage on the issue. Perhaps he would have had a better understanding if he had attended more than 1 in 40 meetings of the CFP committee that he sat on.

UK fishermen may not win 'waters back' after Brexit, EU memo reveals:

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/feb/15/uk-fishermen-may-not-win-waters-back-after-brexit-eu-memo-reveals?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboard"

So what use is an EU memo....if we are no longer in the EU.....if they sent a memo to Argentina would that mean they could go fish their waters with impunity?

This has to be one of your daftest posts ever!

But its not just one thing that has turned out to be bollocks though is it?

Did you know that the £350m a week for the NHS was rubbish? YES.....because even the message on the bus didn't actually say that!

Did you know that inflation was going to rise? YES.....It was in the leaflets. Probably would have anyway

Did you know that Sterling was going to crash? Yes...the IMF told us in 2015 that sterling was overvalued by 15-20%

Did you know that we would need £92bn of monetary and fiscal policy measures? You are including stuff from 2008 onwards?

Did you know that a £700m blackhole would appear in our defence budget? Sod all to do with Brexit or anything else...we still one of a handful of countries meeting our NATO commitments of 2%

Did you know that UK academics would be excluded from research projects?

Did you know that university applications would fall? They haven't!

Did you know that the Department of Energy and Climate Change would be scrapped? And your point is?

Did you know that the pension age was going to increase? Yes .. was already in plans which Labour started in 2007 "

Well if roughly 9 out of ten fishermen voted leave then it's irrelevant if they gain or lose out on fishing rights because they have got what they voted for so it's a win situation for them either way

Of course we have to accept this 9 out of 10 statistic about fishermen, but it you say that Leave voters were more likely to be older, and less likely to have a degree, then many Leavers will say that no one knows how anyone voted

Where are the 500,000 job losses by the end of 2017, and 3,000,000 by the end 2020?

Where is the 3.6% drop in GDP 'within a year' of a brexit vote?

Where is the £30bn budget? No idea, I wish there had been a £30bn budget, we have had more than 3 times that, £92bn in fiscal and monetary policy measures. Thanks for that its not like we had anything better to spend the money on.

Immediate recession? All assumptions were made on article 50 being triggered immediately, so wait and see what happens after its triggered.

Stock market collapse and house prices see above. I notice you haven't mentioned about the fall in Sterling or the fact that interest rates are their lowest in more than three hundred years! Three Hundred Years! THREE HUNDRED YEARS for God's sake!

When did you expect a war to happen? Immediately? The EU and its predecessor organistions has provided peace amongst members since 1952, it's stated aim "to make war not only unthinkable but materially impossible" its taken 65 years to get to the peace we have today, maybe it will take 65 years to rip it apart. Maybe it will be quicker, maybe it will be longer, but I think its sad thay we have turned our back on that aim.

Nope, the EU aren't planning an Army (or a Navy or Airforce) they are planning a HQ building to coordinate joint military operations and training between the militaries of the member states of the EU. You know, like they have been doing for hundreds of years, does the fact that the British fought alongside the Netherlands, Prussia and others at the battle of Waterloo also make you shit your pants in terror of countries fighting together?

You don't really expect me to explain why in Feb 2017 I can't prove to you why something has or hasn't happened in 2020 or 31st December 2017 do you?

Again with the wage drop, wait and see, inflation is growing, will wages keep up? I doubt it, what do you think?

Firstly I notice (as usual) you like to get personal when your nonsensical arguments get backed into a corner.

Remember the economy?

Secondly it is clear from your posts on this subject that apart from a few snippets picked up from the guardian and google you haven't got the first idea about fishing and fishermen.

As for the 30 - 40 vessels that you like to accuse me of not caring about. Well if they are quota hoppers (which some will certainly be) from Spain, Holland or anywhere else then I agree, I don't give a flying fuck about them.

However, have you ever thought (yeah I know) that maybe, just maybe, if Britain regained control of its own waters the that fleet may just increase to 100 200 or more, and as a bonus without quota hoppers?

No of course you didn't. That wouldn't fit into your Brexit trolling agenda would it.

Why not just admit it? You got shot down in flames on the economy (by the Bank of England no less) and now you are just scraping a very empty barrel to try and keep your trolling of Brexit on track.

So lots of people said that it was bollocks that EU boats would still be fishing UK waters, or that at the time it was just a possibility, should they didn’t yet want to discuss it. I wonder what those same people say now after Michael Gove has reportedly told European fishermen they will still be able to catch “large amounts” in British waters after Brexit. Gove said: “Britain has no fish cutters [employed to clean, trim and bone fish] or the production facilities enough to catch all the fish in British waters.”

Niels Wichmann, managing director of the Danish fisheries association, told the Jyllands-Posten newspaper: "Fishermen from Denmark and other EU countries will continue to have access to British waters after Brexit.

"It is a logical announcement but it is still very positive and a little surprising that it comes from a British minister so early in the negotiation process.”

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/08/03/michael-gove-says-european-fishermen-can-cast-nets-wide-uk-waters/

What do they think now? Are Gove and the Telegraph simply scaremongering, brexit-denying remoaners wallowing in project fear?

What do they think now? Are Gove and the Telegraph simply scaremongering, brexit-denying remoaners wallowing in project fear?"

LOL.

You conveniently missed out this paragraph from the same article.

"A Defra spokesman said: “Leaving the EU means we will take back control of our territorial waters. As we have always said, other countries will be able to access to our waters – but for the first time in 50 years it will be on our terms and under our control"

Nice try.

"So lots of people said that it was bollocks that EU boats would still be fishing UK waters, or that at the time it was just a possibility, should they didn’t yet want to discuss it. I wonder what those same people say now after Michael Gove has reportedly told European fishermen they will still be able to catch “large amounts” in British waters after Brexit. Gove said: “Britain has no fish cutters [employed to clean, trim and bone fish] or the production facilities enough to catch all the fish in British waters.”

Niels Wichmann, managing director of the Danish fisheries association, told the Jyllands-Posten newspaper: "Fishermen from Denmark and other EU countries will continue to have access to British waters after Brexit.

Your point is exactly what?

Britain will take back control of its waters and Britain will decide who does or doesn't fish in them.

Is that too difficult for you to understand?

WOW Einstein. Take a silver star and go to the top of the class.

Only problem is that no-one said they wouldn't.

Fishing, like every other aspect of Brexit, will be negotiated.

One minute you are complaining that Britain is slow on negotiating and the next minute you pull out your crystal ball and announce the results of negotiations that have hardly started.

As I've said further up this thread, you know bugger all about fishing so let's leave this one to the people that do.

What do they think now? Are Gove and the Telegraph simply scaremongering, brexit-denying remoaners wallowing in project fear?

LOL.

You conveniently missed out this paragraph from the same article.

"A Defra spokesman said: “Leaving the EU means we will take back control of our territorial waters. As we have always said, other countries will be able to access to our waters – but for the first time in 50 years it will be on our terms and under our control"

Nice try.

So you agree that foreign boats will be fishing UK waters after Brexit!

Your point is exactly what?

Britain will take back control of its waters and Britain will decide who does or doesn't fish in them.

Is that too difficult for you to understand?

No, I understand that foreign boats will be fishing in UK waters.

WOW Einstein. Take a silver star and go to the top of the class.

Only problem is that no-one said they wouldn't.

Fishing, like every other aspect of Brexit, will be negotiated.

One minute you are complaining that Britain is slow on negotiating and the next minute you pull out your crystal ball and announce the results of negotiations that have hardly started.

As I've said further up this thread, you know bugger all about fishing so let's leave this one to the people that do.

So the EU have said it will happen, and a government minister have said it will happen, and you still believe it wont happen?

Still believe what won't happen?????

'kin hell this is like wading through treacle.

BTW. Can you let me know next weeks winning euromillions numbers please.

Ok, even though both sides have said it will happen, we will wait and see if it happens.

That what will happen?

The second coming?

World war 3?

Fleetwood Town signing Ronaldo?

No-one has a clue (least of all you) what the detail of the negotiations will be.

However, as DEFRA pointed out in the article that you quoted, Britain will regain control of its waters. How the politicians will exercise that control remains to be seen.

You don't know and I don't know.

Now what about those lottery numbers?

That foreign boats will fish UK waters!

If it's part of a negotiated deal and the rules/quota's Etc are set in Britain then so what?"

I don't think you'll find many of publications from the Leave campaigns specifically said that foreign boats will continue to fish in UK waters, so people who voted for that are going to be pissed off.

"So lots of people said that it was bollocks that EU boats would still be fishing UK waters, or that at the time it was just a possibility, should they didn’t yet want to discuss it. I wonder what those same people say now after Michael Gove has reportedly told European fishermen they will still be able to catch “large amounts” in British waters after Brexit. Gove said: “Britain has no fish cutters [employed to clean, trim and bone fish] or the production facilities enough to catch all the fish in British waters.”

Pretty obvious you know nothing about fishing either....most ove the boats that fish the UK waters are foreign own sailing out of british ports....you know why ....because the licenses were sold to them "

I think if you read my posts from further up the thread you will realise I know all about flags of convenience and quota hopping.

As someone who was actually involved in the politics of fishing for many years I'm fully aware of what goes on. Are you?

However, as DEFRA pointed out in the article that you quoted, Britain will regain control of its waters. How the politicians will exercise that control remains to be seen.

You don't know and I don't know.

Now what about those lottery numbers?

That foreign boats will fish UK waters!

If it's part of a negotiated deal and the rules/quota's Etc are set in Britain then so what?

Pretty obvious you know nothing about fishing either....most ove the boats that fish the UK waters are foreign own sailing out of british ports....you know why ....because the licenses were sold to them

I think if you read my posts from further up the thread you will realise I know all about flags of convenience and quota hopping.

As someone who was actually involved in the politics of fishing for many years I'm fully aware of what goes on. Are you?

Yes i am....my dad his dad his dad before were all fishermen...not on just a little boat that pops out for the day either...he was away for 14 days at a time in the most cruel of weathers along the Icelandic coast and Russian coast....it you look were i come from you would probably know that Grimsby WAS the biggest fishing port in the UK ....So do you think your ancestors would of voted to leave the EU.

No"

"Well it sounds as though EU boats will still be fishing in UK waters, so more lies from Farage on the issue. Perhaps he would have had a better understanding if he had attended more than 1 in 40 meetings of the CFP committee that he sat on.

You must spend your life looking for any spurious reason to be anti brexit,may,might happen, likely etc.

You never point out the may,might pro brexit articles and you do not seem to have your own opinions.

Emmablu, both side have said that foreign boats will fish British waters. The OP was when the EU said it, and today's posts have been about Michael Gove confirming it. Are you amazed yet?

"So lots of people said that it was bollocks that EU boats would still be fishing UK waters, or that at the time it was just a possibility, should they didn’t yet want to discuss it. I wonder what those same people say now after Michael Gove has reportedly told European fishermen they will still be able to catch “large amounts” in British waters after Brexit. Gove said: “Britain has no fish cutters [employed to clean, trim and bone fish] or the production facilities enough to catch all the fish in British waters.”

Niels Wichmann, managing director of the Danish fisheries association, told the Jyllands-Posten newspaper: "Fishermen from Denmark and other EU countries will continue to have access to British waters after Brexit.

"It is a logical announcement but it is still very positive and a little surprising that it comes from a British minister so early in the negotiation process.”

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/08/03/michael-gove-says-european-fishermen-can-cast-nets-wide-uk-waters/

What do they think now? Are Gove and the Telegraph simply scaremongering, brexit-denying remoaners wallowing in project fear?

LOL.

You conveniently missed out this paragraph from the same article.

"A Defra spokesman said: “Leaving the EU means we will take back control of our territorial waters. As we have always said, other countries will be able to access to our waters – but for the first time in 50 years it will be on our terms and under our control"

Nice try.

So you agree that foreign boats will be fishing UK waters after Brexit!

Your point is exactly what?

Britain will take back control of its waters and Britain will decide who does or doesn't fish in them.

Is that too difficult for you to understand?

No, I understand that foreign boats will be fishing in UK waters.

WOW Einstein. Take a silver star and go to the top of the class.

Only problem is that no-one said they wouldn't.

Fishing, like every other aspect of Brexit, will be negotiated.

One minute you are complaining that Britain is slow on negotiating and the next minute you pull out your crystal ball and announce the results of negotiations that have hardly started.

As I've said further up this thread, you know bugger all about fishing so let's leave this one to the people that do.

So the EU have said it will happen, and a government minister have said it will happen, and you still believe it wont happen?

Still believe what won't happen?????

'kin hell this is like wading through treacle.

BTW. Can you let me know next weeks winning euromillions numbers please.

Ok, even though both sides have said it will happen, we will wait and see if it happens.

That what will happen?

The second coming?

Yes it was. With very close ties to Fleetwood, including many (including mine) family ties.

The story actually says foreign vessels will initially be allowed to continue to fish, as the UK alone does not currently have capacity to fish all our waters. This policy will be reviewed over time.

I would expect that the uk fleet would steadily recover. Since the waters are back under our control, the proportion of uk to foreign vessels can be controlled by uk as time goes by.

Not sure what people want to happen except this type of thing.

and as foreign vessels fish in UK waters to begin with we can charge them fees for doing so which will bring in extra money to the Treasury while the UK fleet is being built back up again.

However as you well know it isn't the real question and never was. It's only the one YOU want to ask to try and either further your Brexit trolling or to try to make yourself look clever, or both.

Oh how you would love me to say yes to that one (another loaded one BTW) but, as you well know there is a very subtle difference between that situation and the one we've got now.

A British government that allowed that to happen would have to answer to the British electorate.

An EU fisheries commissioner answers only to the EU commission and council of ministers of which Britain currently has one voice out of 28.

I think Iceland does a very good job of controlling its waters and non Icelandic boats pay handsomely to fish there.

"The story actually says foreign vessels will initially be allowed to continue to fish, as the UK alone does not currently have capacity to fish all our waters. This policy will be reviewed over time.

I would expect that the uk fleet would steadily recover. Since the waters are back under our control, the proportion of uk to foreign vessels can be controlled by uk as time goes by.

Not sure what people want to happen except this type of thing.

So when do you expect we will have 100% british boats in British waters (for fishing)?

You keep asking the same old, same old, same old question.

You know, pretty much like everyone else, that the answer to that (loaded) question is probably never.

However as you well know it isn't the real question and never was. It's only the one YOU want to ask to try and either further your Brexit trolling or to try to make yourself look clever, or both.

The real question, as you well know, is WHO CONTROLS THE WATERS? and because you already know that the answer to that one doesn't fit in with your agenda you will bang on and on about a completely irrelevant question just because it suits you.

As per bloody usual.

So would you be happy if we controlled the water, and every single boat was foreign? If there was not a single British boat, yet the UK had full control. Would that make you happy?

Oh how you would love me to say yes to that one (another loaded one BTW) but, as you well know there is a very subtle difference between that situation and the one we've got now.

A British government that allowed that to happen would have to answer to the British electorate.

An EU fisheries commissioner answers only to the EU commission and council of ministers of which Britain currently has one voice out of 28.

"

So you are saying that actually control isn't as important as having British boats. I have noticed your trolling behaviour, adding lots of little posts to fill up the thread and close it down. I guess you don't feel comfortable with debate on this issue.

My trolling behaviour? LOL.

The little green arrow is your friend.

I'm more than comfortable on fishing.

Fancy thread two then ?
