Just read and absorb, Buzzer.

That may or may not be true Buzzer - but you didn’t mind making a few quid out of it when it suited you eh? Wasn’t it during the 90’s - once we didn’t have to stop at borders, once we were allowed to fill up on cheap foreign fuel - etc… that your fleet was at it’s peak?
Same for you Dennis - you didn’t mind making a quid, running over the water during the 90’s either.

All joking & jesting aside - there has been some talk regarding fishing rights within Uk waters post Brexit- so a question to you brexiteers - (I don’t have an answer to this question - there’s no right or wrong - )- I’m assuming though that the most ardent brexiteers among us would have considered questions like this before they voted;

So what should happen re fishing rights? - after all, my understanding was at the time, that many UK fishermen sold their quotas - their fishing rights- to European (mainly Spanish) fishermen. Now, if I was a Spanish fisherman who had agreed a deal, and paid hard earned cash for the right to fish in certain area, I think I wouldn’t be too happy to have that right taken away. After all - if you - as a transport company had bought a used truck, you would be a bit miffed if at some point in the future, it was taken off you - you would want some compensation.

So how should the UK compensate said Spanish fishermen now?

And, this also brings me to my previous question of a few weeks ago - regarding the future of the ‘border’ in Ireland. I asked the question, of how the Irish border situation should be addressed. While there were comments on how the border between North & South used to be, and there were comments on what the border is like now - there weren’t any constructive suggestions on the solution to the future border.

So, what do you all suggest are acceptable solutions to the above questions? Hey, I’m not trying to catch anyone out here - like I said, I don’t know what the answers are, but if I was a Spanish fisherman - or if I lived in Ireland - as some members of my family do - I would be very keen to know the answer.

Cheers all, Keith

Firstly the fishing issue would be something along the lines of the US interest in the casino and night club business in Cuba after Castro came to power.IE that was then this is now we’re no longer part of the EU and any deals in place as an EU member state are no longer in place from the date we secede.While surely anyone buying into such an EU member state dependent deal would know that secession means that all bets are off on the basis that the rights were never sold or bought on the basis of being guaranteed to remain in place if we are no longer an EU member state.Why would anyone expect different.

As for the Irish border no surprise that Remainers are trying to deliberately confuse the security measures required during the troubles with the bs idea that there was always a 100 foot high wall with machine gun guarded border posts built across Ireland from 1920 and that there was always a need for such a border from that date.All as part of their project sabotage to derail Brexit.

“Deliberately confuse”?
After Eire became independent of the UK it entered into a special trading agreement with it. Eire and the UK joined the Common Market and the EU at the same time. Since way before 1920 there has been no customs need for a physical border. Brexit may well mean there is a need for such a border as we may be in separate customs zones.
This border will possibly be necessary for CUSTOMS reasons.
Now, it seems true there may be security implications to having a border there. Hence concern over how a minority may seek to use this as an excuse to rekindle old arguments. I certainly don’t know enough to say how real that risk is.
We can all see however that any obstructions to trade will cost time and money.
And borders always provide business opportunities for legitimate customs agents to charge us for papers and illegitimate trade: smugglers.
