I know. And I'm pointing to the absurdity in it. Most of the catches are done by oversize boats, with quatas collected on very few hands.The Brits gave up a lot of their fisheries didn't they?

January 21, the winning continues....
UK fishermen halting exports to EU as ‘catastrophic’ Brexit bureaucracy renders business unviable | The Independent
The voted Leave. Let their fish rot.
If true, then let that fresh fish be sold in the UK.
Have you ever tried to find a fresh fishmongers in a UK city?
Fish has been rationed in the UK for quite sometime. The Brits gave up their fisheries to join the EU. A national disgrace then as now.
Pimpy, WTF are you talking about?? Rationed?? Seriously man, up the dosage or switch your medication!
Not only I've tried, but I succeed on a weekly basis. I buy fresh fish once a week, in London, from a number of different places, both close to me (Islington, I can give you their numbers if you feel like placing an order), as well as online from other parts of the country. The fish I buy, for the most part, comes from British fishermen. Every now and then I'll go crazy and buy something that comes from the continent.
I can assure you outside of London and Islington you might find it quite difficult to find high street fishmongers in comparison to somewhere like the Netherlands.
Not interested in the phone numbers, thanks.
The Brits gave a massive amount of their catch on joining the EU and still do. That's fact.
Mate, do you want me to start posting here every single fucking fishmonger in the UK who sells online FOR THE WHOLE FUCKING COUNTRY??
I don't know what shit you're smoking over there in the Netherlands, but there's been no shortage of fish in the UK. That's just fucking bonkers.
You might find if you used less expletives, overuse of capitals and repeating question and exclamation marks you might arrive at a point where I could take you a bit more seriously than a South American gnat.
Jesus, I can't believe we're arguing about fish...!!!!
Please do give the names of your London fishmongers. Phone numbers and address not necessary.Pimpy, WTF are you talking about?? Rationed?? Seriously man, up the dosage or switch your medication!

Independent fish shops have largely disappeared. Mac Fisheries were the last of the big High Street fishmongers.
Steve Hatt: For 125 years, our fish shop has been an integral part of the Islington Community. Things have changed a bit over the years, but we are just as committed to providing the freshest, high-quality fish to our customers whilst adhering to strong ethical guidelines as we ever were.
Quality of fish on offer will be nothing like that in, say, the Iberian peninsula.
I definitely would not buy fish online. The fishmongers stall in Kingston market is dodgy. Waitrose fish counter probably sells a good proportion of the wet fish in the High Street now. Other supermarkets are closing fish counters.
I am sorry if the facts don’t suit your case, but numbers of fishmongers are down drastically in the U.K. as Pimpernel points out :-Steve Hatt Fishmongers - Islington Fresh Fish Shop
Local Fishmonger serving the Islington community since 1895. Online Ordering of fresh fish now available to the Islington Area.www.stevehattfishmongers.co.ukHOME | Moxon's Fresh Fish | Smoked Fish Online
Moxon's Fresh Fish is a London-based fishmongers selecting the finest fish from all around the British coast. We also smoke our own fish at our Wimbledon Smokehouse.moxonsfreshfish.com
These are the two that I use most of the time.
Bollocks.
Very true - I lived in Spain (Barcelona and Madrid) for 7 years, and the quality of the fish is orders of magnitude better than what you find in the UK. The Gambas from Palamos! The Tuna from Barbate! the Squid from Cabo de Gatas! The Octopus from Galicia! The John Dory from the Girona coast! I get excited just thinking about them.
Also, this fact has absolutely nothing to do with Brexit, Leavers, Quotas, Rationing or any other nonsense being discussed so far.
Thanks for the tip, mate. You should definitely do whatever you feel makes the most sense for you. I know where to buy my fish, thank you very much. And that list would not include Waitrose.
Yes, but Boris and co will not do anything about it unless the likes of Farage forces him to. Boris would rather soak up unjustified media praise and kick any problems into the long grass.The pandemic has utterly exposed the EU

The expat store is struggling with supplies: pork scratchings are getting through,
so. Brexit is clearly a success.
Unless it is a Melton Mowbray pork pie then it is not really a proper pork pie.It is a success for the Brits, as the vaccine roll out in the UK reveals.
Things change, times get hard, times get good.
They will find a way to get pork pies to the expats of The Hague.
White pudding, which would be part of an Ulster fry breakfast, is probably locally produced. It’s quite nice.Brexit: What is the new Northern Ireland trade deal?
Ministers have set out new trade arrangements for Northern Ireland, the rest of the UK and the EU.www.bbc.com
Bangers from Great Britain are no longer permitted to enter into Northern Ireland.
...but what if it's made in Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain?
Ulster fry, haven't had that for over 20 years now. Good stuff.White pudding, which would be part of an Ulster fry breakfast, is probably locally produced. It’s quite nice.
Whereas as Lorne sausage, the square sausage in a Scottish breakfast, is nothing to write home about - although it probably had nostalgia value for ex-pats.
That's kids food.What about Fish Fingers?
