          We will have full autonomy over our waters.

          The EU loves our fish.

          If they want it, they will have to pay for it.

            Yeah we should build our economy on fishing and subsistence agriculture. Why go back to the Victorian age when we can be properly medieval?

            Honestly it's genuinely depressing that someone as stupid as you exists. The sad thing is that it's become clear recently you're not unique, which is why I think Brexit or not, the country is fooked.

              Sad that you don't know how the Common Fisheries policy works...you know that fish don’t respect national boundaries. Mackerel, herring, cod and other commercial species are all highly mobile, and move easily across borders, especially in places such as the North and Irish Seas, where “exclusive economic zones” are jammed together like sardines in a can. Then there is also this: Overview - Convention & Related Agreements and going on further, as has been noted by others:

              A post-Brexit UK might still have to agree quotas with its neighbours, but could it prevent foreign boats from fishing in its waters? Maybe. But only with huge investment in monitoring and control public bodies such as the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) – organisations which are being cut at present.

              Whether the UK would want this sort of escalation is a different question, as it would also mean British boats could no longer fish in the waters of other European nations. This is a major concern in the fishing industry as 20% of the fish caught by the UK fleet is landed elsewhere in the EU.
              Maybe if ****wit Farage who was on the EU fisheries committee had actually done the job he was voted in to do rather than bumphuque an American Psycho, the fishing industry in the UK might actually be in a stronger position.
              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.

                    I can't see that happening in the UK for quite a while, not with the most right wing Tory government in power

                      That'll be the right wing government trying to implement what the people voted for I presume? As opposed to the liberal left who are trying to oppose the people.

                      BTW, I'm not aware of the pink biscuits costs having increased.
