Anyone know much about the whole bother with fishing quotas? My know nothing man in the pub thought is surely even fisherman understand that its there for a reason, ie to not fish the fish to extinction so we can carry on fishing. Is there some sort of nationalistic annoyance, as in 'the bloody french get more and its decided from bloody brussels' etc.

Has the allotment been fair over the years?

What happens after brexit, do British fisherman just have free reign to do what they want in national waters upsetting the hopefully careful EU plan?

It's a purely symbolic issue. Kippers really don't give two shits about the entire thing, to them it boils down to the EVIL EU FACELESS BRUSSELS MAN TAKING ARE FREEDOMS. When you challenge them on it they generally don't actually have a response, the only actual response I've ever got from a Kipper over it was some conspiracy theory garbage of the French taking revenge for the 100 Years War, by advising fishing quotas or something.

The party was out of power for 15 years the last time they did something similar, and if the Lib Dems had worked with Labour in 2010 we wouldn't be in this mess, would we?

So explain how the party benefits.

The PLP spent the past 2 or so years cocking up trying to stab Corbyn in the back and making Labour look like a laughing stock. Despite all evidence showing that Blarite Neoliberalism isn't working or appealing to voters in any way they keep trying to drag the party away from it's course-correction back to the Left and having a hissyfit whenever the party membership keeps showing that they want that drift back. Look at the change in Labour's performance once they collectively shut up and fell in line, now we're in the brighter situation we're in now.
