    You're entitled to your opinion (the joke is appreciated, btw) but it's not as if we have (or rather, had) a reciprocal arrangement with French vineyards!

The EU can't enforce their own rules - it really is putting lunatics in charge of the asylum, and also in charge of those who are in charge of those who are in charge of the asylum.

      There are currently EU rules against overfishing in place, which will disappear in a no deal scenario where the UK fisherpeople will empty the UK's waters without being held back by any limits and rules about type of fishing techniques and nets etc, creating a desert in the UK's part of the North Sea

            There's a nutter kipper currently on the radio talking about this, she is going psycho...There is a new fisheries bill currently waiting on Royal Assent: Fisheries Bill [HL] 2019-21 — UK Parliament
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              Catfood factories I suppose as the average Brexidiot doesn't eat any fish except for a fat, thickly battered undefinable type of fish with their chips

                Just had a read of the Bill. A lot more red tape involved with fishing, the fishermen will need to take a lawyer with them on their fishing trips.

                      You've got a nerve. It's Dutch boats which cause the most problems. UK boats abide by those EU rules, which is why a huge percentage gets thrown overboard. I've never heard of an instance of EU boats abiding by those same rules.
