    When I was a lad the fishmongers were full of a wide variety of wonderful fish, super fresh and tasty. The EU arrived and all the fishermen disappeared, the port lost its charm with rampant unemployment and the fishmongers went too. We got tulip from the supermarket at double the price.

    You ignorant EU supporters need to look at the EU fisheries policy in some detail, trawlers are required to throw back catch that exceeds their quota. That's not how fishing works - the EU is destroying the oceans!
    Weird that, I live hundreds of miles from the coast yet we have 2 fish shops, both with fresh fish and quite a large variety. Makes you think doesn't it
    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.

      Most of the fish is probably imported whereas most British landed fish is exported. If only there were some kind of free trade phytosanitary club of nearby countries that the UK could join to minimise red tape for the movement of fast perishing trade goods.

        Our local fishmonger is excellent... all their supply is from a Spanish supplier.
