UK gives 23 post-Brexit permits to French fishermen

The EU had set London a 10 December deadline to grant licences to dozens of French fishing boats under a Brexit deal signed last year, with Paris threatening European legal action if no breakthrough emerged.

The EU hailed the agreement as "an important step in a long process" towards implementing the 2020 Brexit agreement and said work continued to license seven more vessels by Monday.France had previously said 104 of its boats still lacked licences to operate in British and Channel Island waters that should have been granted under the Brexit agreement.

French fishermen last month disrupted cross-Channel ferry and freight traffic in protest at the post-Brexit arrangements and consequent loss of trade.
