      They feel betrayed because Brexit didn't bring what they were promised and what they voted for. But, surprise surprise, it brought exactly what serious experts predicted. And the fishermen should have known best what happens when their trade ties with the EU are interrupted. And still they voted for their own misery!

    This whole argument is built on a false premise. The UK government have never had control of waters beyond 12 miles and gave away what control they had beyond 6 miles in the 1964 London Fisheries Convention after being forced to accept that the rest of the world agreed that coastal states would control fishing waters out to 12 miles. Prior to then, and subsequently beyond 12 miles, anyone could fish for whatever they wanted and fleets of Russian and Polish fish factory ships and their attendant fleets of trawlers were a regular sight in the North and Irish Seas and the English Channel up until the EU declared a 200 mile limit in the 1970's after the UK joined the EU. So please, no more talk of regaining 'our' fishing waters - 'we' never had them in the first place!

      @@strobo24 Leaving the EU will not let the UK regain its fishing waters, it will allow it to have exclusive rights to areas of sea that it has never had before. In fact successive UK Governments have gone to some lengths to prevent the extension of fishing limits.
      In the 1930's the Norwegians declared a 4 mile fishing limit and some UK trawlers were arrested for fishing within this limit and the UK took the case to the International Court of Justice. The court found for the Norwegians who argued for the primacy of local interests.
      The UK was eventually forced to concede the 4 mile limit after an Icelandic claim of a 4 mile fishing limit was upheld by the OECD in 1956.
      By 1958 various nations, including Iceland, were claiming fishing waters out to 12 miles. The UK did not recognise these claims and this led to the first 'Cod War' with Iceland. Subsequent to a UN Conference on the Law of The Sea the UK agreed to the 12 mile limit.
      The London Fisheries Convention drawn up by the UK government in 1964 allowed signatories of the convention to fish between the 12 mile and 6 mile limit of each other's fishing waters.
      In 1972 Iceland declared a 50 mile limit leading to the second 'Cod War' between The UK and Iceland. The US helped resolve this dispute, which allowed a limited number of UK trawlers to fish within the Icelandic 12 mile limit for the next two years.
      The UK joined what is now the EU in 1973. At the time the UK and the EU only recognised a 12 nautical mile fishing limit.
      In 1975 Iceland declared a 200 mile limit. The UK did not recognise this claim and had their third 'Cod War' with Iceland as a result of the dispute. At this time Russian and Polish fish processing ships, with their attendant fleets of trawlers, were a regular sight in the English Channel and the North and Irish Seas. By the end of 1976 the UK conceded the 200 mile Icelandic limit which effectively ended UK long distance fishing.
      The EU, including the The UK, extended its fishing limits from 12 nautical miles out to 200 nautical miles from the coast in 1977 subsequent to the adoption of such a limit by a United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea. This finally brought to an end the over fishing of what were now EU waters by the Russians and Poles.
      In anticipation of leaving the EU the UK gave notice that it will withdraw from the 1964 London Fisheries Convention. Now the UK has left the EU, it will, for the first time in its history, have exclusive access to half way across the Irish Sea, the English Channel and the North Sea. It will also have exclusive rights to extensive fishing grounds to the north and west of Scotland, but actually to a smaller area than UK fishermen currently have access to, which is right up to EU coastal states 12 mile limits, closer in many cases and would have had right up to the coast of any EU state by 2022. So now UK fishermen could potentially have access to waters that they have never had exclusive access to before but only to a smaller sea area than before. Of course the UK government has agreed that EU fishing fleets can have access to these waters because they had to.

      First, the unexploited waters are more productive and less expensive. Also, you have the freedom to preserve your own assets without arbitrary intervention from a corrupted EU.
      Second,... finally UK can go back to traditional exploitation of the catch. People have to start feeding with healthy plain fish, instead of highly industrialised fish proteines, supplied in to a pork/lamb/cow Industrial farming... that at the end of the day are distructive for every one.

      @@strobo24 I'm sorry but I don't understand the point you are making. What advantage is being seen as a hidden problem? Where are the unexploited waters?
      The traditional exploitation of fisheries was unsustainable, which is why the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) gave advice on fish quotas that the EU attempted to adopt but were frustrated in its implementation by its member states. The restriction of fishing has been partially successful in that the stocks of some species are beginning to show signs of recovery but there is still a long way to go and further quota cuts are likely to be imposed on fishermen by the EU, which the UK will have to follow or face a tariff on fish exports to the EU rather than the present non-tariff barrier.

      The worst thing is that because some 50% of UK trade is with the EU, the UK will still have to obey EU rules, but with no say. It's the only way to maintain an economy of scale. As an American who has always felt great sympathy for the British people, it was like watching a friend making a foolhardy decision and being helpless to stop it.

  • @ybkseraph
    @ybkseraph Před 3 lety +82

    The problem is not the deal itself as it gives back uk 25% of the quotas. The problem, here to stay, is the choice of Brexit, out of custom union and single market. Which means UK at its choice is now a third country and have all the paperwork a third country has to do to access EU market.
    How could UK get this so wrong ? What is the point of having 100% fishing quotas if you can not sell the fish ?
    And how could UK fishing industry not see that coming early on ? Maybe they were used for 30 years to be able to sell in EU with no red tape - that’s one of the benefits of EU..

  • @helmutzollner5496
    @helmutzollner5496 Před 3 lety +14

    Why do all these foreigners have the quotas to fish in British waters? Because the British fishermen sold their fishing quotas to foreigners!
    Isn't it also true that your current fishing fleet doesn't have the capacity to fish even the quotas you have got right now?
    And given you could fish and land all those lovely fish, what would you do with it? The customers for British fish are in the EU, the Bits prefer to eat Norwegian cod!
    So, having cut yourselves off from your EU customers, who would buy your British fish?
    How could this happen? Because the BoJo Tory government has neglected to prepare for 3rd Country status and has NOT created the regulatory bodies to issue the health certificates required for fish exports! Those regulatory bodies may be ready in the summer and so No No has left the British fishermen to die with no income.
    That is NOT the fault of the EU, that's your lovely Tory government, which you voted so overwhelmingly not even 14 months ago!
    But when mentioning all that before BREXIT, it was Project Fear. "Aww, we 'll be all right, they will never allow that to happen. That would be murder'"
    Well, they did, didn't they?
    Now it's Project Bust, but at least you will have happier British fish now! Which will be fished bybtgevFrench, because YOUR British Government is a bunch of clueless "B"ankers.
    Enjoy!

    Many British people refer to the “EU” as if it is just one single entity. Well, it’s not. It’s 27 separate independent sovereign countries, with a total population of 470 million people, all with different cultures, different national identities, different mindsets... except that we all believe and we have actually seen, that working together in partnership brings huge benefits and prosperity to all of our different countries. Of course it’s not perfect. Nothing is. But it’s better than being alone.
    The problem for Britain is that their politicians didn’t work properly for their country or the British people before they decided to give up their membership of this alliance. They still don’t. British people should be angry with their wasteful politicians. British people should look to themselves before they start blaming everybody else. The English have a phrase “sour grapes”. That’s what I see and hear from them now.

    I initially agree with them, but, I notice fish stocks and some Agreement has yet to be agreed, and the fish stocks in the Brexit Agreement are a temporary Agreement.
    But...looking at my Live Fishing App, I can see that wide areas off the East Coast are virtually empty of any Fishing Boats.
    And that most Fishing boats off the coast of the UK are UK fishing boats
    And remembering that the 2,000 EU Fishing boats with UK Fishing Licences are following UK Rules, UK quotas.
    And also remembering that the last people to be given responsibility over fish stocks are the fishermen themselves who will fish until there is nothing left
    So as far as Complaints from UK fishermen, I would take them with a pinch of salt
    Last thought, a recent EU Report in December 2020 stated that the Mediterranean and Baltic were overfished and that Quotas would need to be reduced 75%
