The British variant of Corona

Brexit voters, now yes, we are the next evolution of human-kind. Genetically superior minds, visionaries, and courageous and stoic hyper-breed.

Yes. You will need to catch your own fish pretty soon.

Your joking we are going to be knee deep in the bloody things if we can’t sell them on.
I could handle a bit more fish in my diet but not with my morning cereal.

We’re doing ok you know. Yes there’s the expected few bumps along the way but I think overall we in the UK are a pretty happy bunch right now.

My only complaint is leaving lower paid front line NHS staff out of a well deserved pay boost. Bloody shoddy and frankly a bit politically unwise given the amount of other borrowing going on.

It could provide a nice boost for fish restaurants if prices come down due to a temporary over supply.

Can never get enough fish, just ask the Galileans in Jesus time.

Fair enough but it had better be white wine this time, bloody philistines.
Seriously cheaper fish would work for me, good fish is dearer than steak.

Of course not! No more than Scandinavians or Americans.

Dumbest question award is in the post.

Exactly. So calling something 'British' is NOT racist.

Glad you agree.

Of course it isn’t.

And even if it was, us Brits wouldn’t care, we’re pretty thick skinned.

Not in my experience.

Start eating Hake and shellfish and you’ll be fine.

Seemingly that’s the main catch by British fishermen and Brits don’t eat much of either.

Hake in a cheese sauce! God damn greatness on a plate!
Should you ever pass by, that is what I’ll serve!

The problem is that not selling them on is going to destroy the fishing industry.

The British will have to expand their diets if they want to keep the fishing fleet afloat.

Damn... I’m a smart alec.

Have you ever been out of America then?

You’re like the UK’s prophet of doom!

Have ANY of your negative prophesies about our cool Britannia nation come to pass?

Yes. Every single one.
And I’m not negative!

I told you all there would be a deal and not much would change.

Obviously I didn’t expect the UK to drop out of the market mechanism (that wasn’t part of the Brexit promise). And I told you that it would seriously hurt British interests, fishing, agriculture, etc.

And it is.
That the BBC is towing the government’s line is pathetic. A bit of objective reporting and a whole pile if problems gets upturned.

From corruption to failing industries.
It’s not pretty.

Probably not gonna happen but a big increase fish consumption with a reduction in red meat and chicken would be good for our: health, future NHS budget and land use. Plus anything that reduces the need for factory style meat production has got to be good for animal welfare.
Yes your correct you are a smart Alec, I make a point of not reading your posts until I’ve had my shredded cod in the morning.
