Re: fishing rights
keith that is what it is all about we have told them but they will disagree ....and try to water it down ...of course that is what davis will find on anything we suggest ..negotiation is not easy when its 27 against one .....and of course we have so many of our own against brexit it will be a hard run and a long fight ...some are even weakening now but we must persevere the old folk will stand the young will retreat .....sad but true me i will stand it is my nature .....sadly we cannot just walk away it sounds good but the people of this country would buckle to the retaliation which would be poured on us from the mainly krauts and froggies .....fings aint wot they used to be in the backbone of this country... too many live from cradle to grave.....and cannot stand for themselves never mind there country..to me sadly that is the truth of it ....cappy

I wonder what the remainers would have done in WW2 when we were Bombed night after night in the Blitz losing everything including our families .
Todays population are a bunch of wimps compared to our and previous generations.

Re: fishing rights
We can charge a fortune for a licence to fish.
An end to the ludicrous situation where French trawlers can fish the channel but UK trawlers banned.
