Yellow Fever 3,818 Posted January 8, 2021 24 minutes ago, How I Wrote Elastic Man said: They aren't "getting round to it" They are doing it. France and Belgium have already banned it You don't expect RTB to actually know the facts ? That would take some research or just reading any quality newspaper.

I think the default position is Swindon is wrong, as simple as that as after numerous years waiting for him to post something that is either factually accurate and/or true I finally gave up, as he is nothing more than a racist who habitually lies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was one the BBC Only in this country could anyone believe that could happen! I live in Cornwall and the Fishing Industry has been finished for years. Just like Tin Mining. They didn't adapt and their equipment is falling to bits. A chap I used to Hash with is a fishermen and the writing was on the wall. So he adapted. He caught fish that suited the Sushi and Restaurant market particularly in London. And he sends boxes of it away every day. BBC even made a programme about him. He didn't sit in the local pub moaning, he got of his jacksie and turned it around. A chap I play golf with has two boats which he has given to his son. And his son has relocated to Scotland because there is nothing down here. Move on from fishing. Its a tiny industry. The UK doesn't eat fish unless there is batter around it. I was in printing that was a massive industry employing around a million. Now there is about 80K. I don't recall anyone sympathising with us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paul moy 235 Posted January 9, 2021 Quelle Surprise !! Macron deliberately delays our freight. Time to check every French boat in our waters methinks to ensure that they are sticking to our regulations on fishing as I am pretty sure they are not, as well as checking every lorry coming in from France, especially the French ones. If they want to behave like children then we have to respond in kind.
