Belgium farmer makes France smaller.

''A Brexit deal will be easy'' they said.

And?

The French start effing with your fish ... POW! They get a little of the ol' Rule Britannia, BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES action.
Problem solved.
Keep on fishing.
Easy.

That didn't feel good?

Except we export 70% of our fish to Europe and they've stopped buying.
Fishermen got well and truly fucked by Brexit.

You're telling me with a global populace north of 7.9 billion people you Limeys can't figure out how to sell fish?

You must be joking.

Seems that nobody thought to plan for it.
After all, Brexit was going to be so easy...

A lot of it sits at the borders for so long it has to be thrown away.
It's as if frictionless movement of trade across borders is a thing worth having after all.

Oh wait ... have you been reading the yellow journalism of this soy-boy:


This BBC "writer" who proclaimed the imminent collapse of the UK's fishing industry in mere weeks ... back in ... let's see here ... early JANUARY?

Man, you can't go investing a lot of trust in panic rags, my friend.

Want me to call the Wambulance?

Oh know, Brussels isn't there to tell us what to do, Wahhhhhhhh

[SuburbanFarmer]

If only there were some way to make an agreement to sell fish from an island nation. This international stuff is hard.

[doc_loliday]

Europe could just, I dunno, buy the fish like they always have. I guess they make their woke point.

[DBTrek]

Does anywhere else eat fish?
Or ... just the EU these days?

[C-Mag]

If only there was some British historical example of how to sell a fish.

We can examine history even prior to the british if we want to see examples of how to sell a fish.
