@chdot - Guardian article useful as it mentions fisheries in Cornwall too. Can take it as read that Scotland would be punished for voting 'incorrectly' but when this affects rUK too then government under pressure.
National just posted this exchange. The Conservatories are imperial surealists.
Sheppard said exiting the European bloc had been a "disaster”, and asked for a debate on compensation for the Scottish fishing industry.He said: “Boats confined to harbour, lorry loads of seafood destroyed, the industry losing £1 million a day as firms go bust – all as a result of Brexit red tape imposed by this Government.
“Yet when asked about this yesterday, the Prime Minister refused to answer.”
Rees-Mogg claimed in response that the "key thing is we’ve got our fish back", adding: “They’re now British fish and they’re better and happier fish for it.”
Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle intervened and noted: “Obviously there’s no overwhelming evidence for that.”
