IRELAND'S minister for foreign affairs has hit out at the UK's approach to post-Brexit fishing negotiations, accusing the British Government of adopting a 'ridiculously simplistic' view of the complex issue.

Simon Coveney warned Britain’s stance over what remains one of the most contentious topics in talks between Michel Barnier and David Frost risked sinking any trade pact. His scathing review of the UK’s position on fishing comes after the Government assured fishermen they would be able to increase their catch after the expiration of the Brexit transition period on December 31.

Who’ll buy our fish when we fall out with our best customers . I won’t be eating more fish just to save our fishing industry , simply because I don’t eat it often anyway, but the Spanish, French and Portuguese kitchens keep our fishing industry going .

Nobody said the fish were British 🤡 The sea in British territory is of course another matter ... You fish in your territory & we will fish in ours🤷‍♀️🤔

erm most of the fish consumed in the UK is imported from Iceland and the Faroe islands. (Cod & Haddock).
