Victoire! Royal Navy ships send French fishing flotilla scurrying backFrench fishermen tonight threatened to blockade Calais, saying they would stop British goods from entering the EU unless all of their boats were allowed to fish in Jersey's waters.

Or that it was the British boat that hit the French one on purpose. Shameful reporting. So more threats of illegal blockades in breach of the FTA and international law.
