Belgium farmer makes France smaller.

Does anywhere else eat fish?
Or ... just the EU these days?

I guess, given enough time, we could develop new trade links and one day we might even trade with as many nations as we used to when we were in the EU but in the meantime we have a shit load of pissed off fishermen who were assured things would be so much better after Brexit.

How much time does it take to get to France from Jersey anyway?

There's that stiff upper lip.
Surely given a few centuries to mull it over, your people will rediscover the secrets of selling fish.

Depends how you travel.
Be a few hours if you swam.
It's 14 miles away.

Fisherman: You could be eating sushi in 14 hours if we had to swim our catch France.

EU: Sorry, we're not gonna let that happen.

EU subjects: See why Brexit was such a bad idea?

I'm sure I don't have to explain to such an expert on economics as yourself what it means to lose up to 70% of your market overnight.

If only there had been someone warning of the dangers for the last 5 years.
Instead we had meaningless prattle like ''Brexit means Brexit'' and ''get Brexit done'' and zero planning for what might happen if a Brexit deal isn't quite so easy after all.

The buyers have just moved to new suppliers because there was so much red tape and delay caused by leaving the common market free trade zone.
Who knew?

[doc_loliday]

It's really nuts when you think about it, I mean, how did people ever manage to sell fish before red tape and delays were invented?

[Montegriffo]

Well, if it's so easy, our fishmongers must be just not trying hard enough.
I guess they must just rather throw it away.

Damn, the Brits really have lost. Sad.
