The UK lost 3-0 to Iceland in the Cod Wars, not helped of course by Iceland threatening to leave NATO. 

 

 

If French fishermen are stopped from fishing in British waters, what will happen to the British fishermen who currently fish in French waters?

 

Remember the so-called Scallop War? 

Quote

French and British fishermen have said they will attend talks to quell a dispute over access to the scallop-rich seabed off the coast of Normandy in northern France.......

 

.......French fisherman are irritated they are banned from fishing scallops during the summer — to protect stocks — while their British counterparts are free from such restrictions.

Indeed. 

 

But instead of retraining their employees and converting their fleets to coastal fishing, the British owners simply made the men redundant and scrapped their boats.

 

Which meant that come 1983 and the Common Fisheries Policy, there were very few British boats fishing in British coastal waters. So as the quotas were based on historical catches, most went to the countries who had historically caught more in those waters than the tiny British coastal fleet had.

 

This was later made worse when the British government decided to make licences to fish transferable; i.e. saleable. Many British licence holders sold their licences to foreign owners. 

 

British fishermen were betrayed in the 1970s by the British government and British fleet owners.

Misfire there 49. The CFP existed when we joined. There was an immediate impact. 

Gallophobia seems to thrive here. There is a lot of misunderstanding about Europe from the UK side and a lot of hypocrisy: didn't Bojo write against Brexit?  He is a lousy PM and people will regret having him sooner than later. The Covid 19 crisis in the UK has not been a very shining example of good management to start with. Remember the Cummings episode among others? Wasn't Bojo sick with the Covid because he knew better than wearing a mask? Time will tell how the UK fares once the Covid and the Brexit sagas are over. Those who are happy with Brexit and live here will not have to face the consequences. It is easy to gloat from afar.

 Changes to Skrill services due to Brexit

Dear XXXXX

We're getting in touch to let you know about a few changes we're making so that we can continue to offer our services in the European Economic Area ("EEA").

As you may know, the United Kingdom left the EU on 31 January 2020 (commonly known as "Brexit"). We've been working hard to minimise the impact of Brexit on our customers, and to make sure Skrill can keep providing services without any interruption.
This is what we are doing:

Our services are currently provided to customers in the EEA through Skrill Limited, a UK Financial Conduct Authority authorised and regulated electronic money institution. In future, we will provide services to our customers in the EEA through a Paysafe Group company based in Ireland, Paysafe Payment Solutions Limited ("PPSL") (company number 626665). PPSL is authorised and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland as an electronic money institution (register number C184986).

Our terms of use are changing too:

In future, your Skrill Account and the services you receive from Skrill will be provided by PPSL and will be governed by new terms of use between you and PPSL. The new terms of use will largely be the same as your current terms of use with Skrill Limited, and you will receive the same services you do today. Minor changes to the current terms of use are required to reflect the transfer of your Skrill Account to PPSL, which include: 
changing the details of the Skrill service provider to PPSL;
changing the governing law and jurisdiction to Ireland; and
changing the details of the applicable point of contact if you have a complaint.
You can view the new terms of use with PPSL by clicking on the links below for the services which are relevant to you: 

Skrill Account Terms of Use
Skrill Prepaid Mastercard Terms and Conditions
Skrill Cryptocurrency Terms of Use
Skrill Money Transfer Terms and Conditions
Skrill Rapid Transfer Terms and Conditions
Skrill VIP Terms and Conditions
Skrill Refer a Friend Terms and Conditions
Skrill Money Transfer Refer a Friend Programme Terms and Conditions
Knect Loyalty Programme Rules
Skrill Affiliate Referral Terms and Conditions
Paysafe Affiliates Terms and Conditions

The new terms of use will apply to your Skrill Account from 4 August 2020. Until then, your Skrill Account will continue to be governed by your current terms of use, which can still be viewed and downloaded here.

What do you need to do now?
Nothing. If you agree with the changes described above, they will automatically apply to the services we provide to you from 4 August 2020. Any existing balance with Skrill Limited will automatically be transferred to PPSL and will remain available as normal. If for any reason you aren't happy with the above changes, you can close your Skrill Account and terminate any other services you receive from us with immediate effect prior to 4 August 2020. For more information regarding your termination rights please see the relevant sections of your current terms of use.
Finally, we'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your understanding and for being a valued customer while we finish making these necessary changes to Skrill.
All the best,

The Skrill Team

They won’t keep their illegal immigrants on their side of it. Do you honestly expect they would even try to keep their own fish thieves on their side?

No misfire; I meant the 1983 regulation. Which is why I said "come 1983 and the Common Fisheries Policy." But maybe that was too subtle for you?

 

The CFP has been reformed, renewed and replaced many times since it's inception; the last such being in 2013.

 

The Common Fisheries Policy: origins and development

Quote

3. CFP regulations and reforms

a. The 1983 regulation

In 1983, after several years of negotiations, the Council adopted Regulation (EEC) No 170/83, establishing the new generation CFP,

 

Common Fisheries Policy HC Deb 31 January 1983 vol 36 cc28-106

Quote

The Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Mr. Peter Walker) 

I beg to move, That this House approves the Agreement on the Common Fisheries Policy reached at the Council of Fisheries Ministers meeting on 25th January 1983. 

 

Common Fisheries Policy

Quote

The European Union's Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) was adopted in 1983, with the objective of ensuring that declining fish stocks are exploited responsibly - protecting the environment and the interests of the fishing industry and consumers.

 

A moments research, such as Googling "Common Fishing Policy 1983," would have prevented you from embarrassing yourself by yet again displaying your lack of knowledge.

 If what you say is true; explain how come those that make it to the UK are a tiny fraction of those camped out in the Pas de Calais.

What about the British who fish in French waters, like the scallop fishermen I linked to earlier; are they "fish thieves" too?

 

British who continued to fish while the French were banned by the French government from doing so in order to preserve stocks for the future!

The UK gets its waters back, lock, stock and barrel, no ifs, ands or buts... 

 

The UK starts afresh, land and waters, we negotiate from there.

 

Yes the French are unhappy, but the UK's fishing industry was decimated by being in the EU, now its France's time to feel the pinch...

 

Oh, and they should sort all those immigrants out that are camped up on their soil, instead of helping them to get to the UK....
