    Vetran likes breaking bremoaner analogies.

    RIP - Golf Club, Your round & divorce is on the critical list.

      The first step back to the good old days, just what Brexiters want...

      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.

        Some good news.

        Japan to strike free trade deal with the EU

        That should compensate the EU for the loss of business to the UK.
        I'm alright Jack

          Maybe it will include free movement? Japan has an increasingly aging population and needs some young blood.

            Wasn't that about Iceland claiming its territorial waters, just like the UK will now do?

              UK was sacrificed for NATO interests. When will the UK look after the UK?

                It seems an odd time to be antagonising one of the few allies the UK has left in the EU27. Maybe the DUP twisted May's arm.

                  What about the fishermen who will then discover that having their 'own waters' also loses them instant access to a market they rely on ?

                    Best ask them that, although the fisherman I spoke to last week wished they'd "just get on with it".

                      Don't know about the whitefish fleet, but, certainly in the langoustine market, there is no real UK market for it. I've got a prawn boat (premium stuff, all creel caught) and the local fishmonger sells that stuff at about 30% less than the proper wholesale price cause, basically, very few people buy them. The catch from my boat goes straight to a processor 3 times a week, who pays top price for tubed prawns (i.e complete and still wriggling). Stuff gets picked up around 3.00 PM and is in France, Spain and Italy being delivered to end buyers the following morning. No single market and no customs union removes that market. Loss of that market will put the two guys who work my boat on the dole and leave me with a worthless licence and a big lump of pretty useless boat.

                      Generally, the people I know in the fishing industry can't see past todays weather forecast.
