Rejected petition Protect our fishing industry and encourage growth refusing EU's terms on quotas

It is unacceptable’ European Parliament plan the UK to maintain existing fishing quotas post-Brexit.

More details

Reports are that the EU want us to leave the EU with the same fishing quotas that we have had to endure for many years, this has wrecked the fishing industry, depleted the fishing stocks, wrecked fishing communities, crippled the fishing employments for many areas, we have seen European fishing factories come in and remove undersize fish, nearly wipe out species, we must protect what was ours to ensure a sustainable food source for our generations to come.
