Brexit and British fishermen | DW Documentary

By the time the video ended my blood was boiling, and I'm not even British. Some heads must roll, ladies and gentleman.

What was it that Boriis Johnson said ? " F`k business ?" That tells you all you need to know about Boris Johnson.

and she wears a make Britain great again cap without words

A nation of suckers. Thousands more born every day. Politicians laughing all the way to the bank.

The lesson to be learned here is never trust Boris, a Russian 👃

did the membership fees got diverted to the NHS ?

When working men start listening to Tory promises, the Tories have beaten them completely. Not just with Propaganda but BRAIN WASHING. BREXIT was an obvious choice not to come out. The Tories sprang it on the UK after it had wreaked its economy with 5 years of AUSTERITY and then blamed it on the EU. Tories always blame somebody else for their FAILURES. The failure in Grimsby was the FISHERMEN and its easily manipulated population.

That is the terrible thing about stupidity. There is no cure for it. 💚🤍🧡

"I shot myself in the foot. I was TOLD it wouldn't hurt."

I understand these peoples frustration but commercial fishing isn't exaclty a profession with a lot of perspective.
Waters are overfished already and without quotas it'd be even more unsustainable.

It was obvious 😆 people dont know how economy works

Part of me feels sorry for these people, but part of me is also “your fault for believing Boris and Farage” Boris hasn’t been back since and his local MP is ignoring him. Don’t worry the MPs and liberal politicians will back when the election is on.

Racists mfs

DONT FEEL SORRY FOR ANY OF THEM!!!!!! IM GLAD THEYRE ALL STRUGGLING!!!! Racists.

same people that go to war believing politician lies. Ignorance is a sin!

Any Brexit-like vote should always have attached to it that the proposing side will all immediately face reelection.

UK: Joined the EU to remove Trade Barriers

UK Merchants: "We want out"

UK: leaves and gets Trade Barriered

UK merchants: surprised pikachu face

I quit my job and regretted it. After 5 months I had a chance to return to my old job. I took it and I'm happy I did - even though it was a bit embarassing at first.
UK can still re-apply for EU membership...

They were told....and now we are all paying for it.

C'est triste pour ces personnes mais pourquoi ont-ils cru ce que disait le ministre, il faut réfléchir soi-même, quitter l'UE c'était perdre beaucoup de possibilités c'était évident.

I feel bad for these people. I also feel bad for the people who are Europeans who lost their livelihood completely with Brexit. Who cares about those people?

so they vote for trade restrictions, get trade restrictions then complain about trade restrictions. they could have just complained about life withot getting trade restrictions. imagine those who understood trade restrictions were stupid having to live with these fools.

And instead of solving these issues, Rishi is banning dog breeds.

You mean to tell me that these fishermen aren’t reaping all the benefits of all that Sovereignty they got back?? Cheers!!

Do these people also believe the waitresses at Hooters genuinely find them attractive?

hey look they all got what they voted for

Well, well, well. You voted for it. Suck it up. Like the rest of the poor bastards who didn't. It amazes me that people, actual people, with minds of their own and reasoning capability, believe fucking politicians.

Poor dumb buggers.

Absolutely shocking.

The English have taken nearly 15yrs to learn that dont believe or trust the Tory’s Doh !

The problem lays on the fact that the required fish for "fish & chips" come from the coasts of France and Spain.

The only country (UK) to vote for sanctions against itself. In all of world history.

Oh their red MAGA style hats.. i wonder if they support Trump

I feel for these hard working, blue collar folk who got manipulated and lied to by their government.

Brexit and MAGA, such resemblances in their resemblances and effects.

Vote Tory, you ARE a Tory. They deserve everything they get.

Sad so sad but also dumb to fall for the lies of Frog Farage!

I was a fisherman for almost 40 years and could never understand why most guys wanted Brexit. Even our fishing "leaders" called it a "sea of opportunity" Most fish and shellfish caught by the UK fleet is exported to Europe. to me it seemed absurd to want to cut yourself off from your main market.
Leading up to the referendum on the EU, the guys were not doing great but they were doing ok. There was a confidence in the industry, a lot of new vessels were getting built, fish stocks were on the increase. Sure, we could have used more quota, but more fish on the market usually resulted in poorer prices and often your no better off.

I always felt it was our own Governments that caused the decline in the Industry,
When days at sea and quotas were slashed they never supported the Industry like our European counterparts did.
I was told by a Dutch fisherman that every time there was a quota cut or days at sea cut the EU put up funding to support the Industry. All the EU asked (to access the funding) was that the member country matched what funding the EU put up.
Our Governments didnt, they never took it up, instead they took a bigger rebate to use in other areas. leaving many in the Industry to rack and ruin. - Our Government called it "market forces"

Boris turns up at a few fishing ports and is hailed as the Messiah of the industry, Everyone knew he was a liar and rotten to the core, how they hell they fell for his crap I'll never know.

BREXIT IS ISOLATION!!! BRITS SHOULD GO AFTER WHO PROMOTED THE LIE TO LEAVE THE UNION. . . . . LIES , LIES, ALL LIES. .

and now, because of the stupid Russophobic policy of the British authorities, Russia has banned the British from catching fish in the Barents Sea, and now in the kingdom of victorious democracy and LGBT, the next generation will eat bugs instead of fish

The problem is worldwide politicians are not held to account. It is happening around the world. They only think about filling their own pocketsthey only think about filling their own pockets.

Foreign boats of all kinds should be forcibly removed including dinghies but this country is a JOKE

I have no sympathy they've vote for it without making any type of research... their problem now that "they've got their country back!!"

"well, well, well ... if it isn't the consequences of my own actions" 🙈

It's still a nice comedy show in 2024.

"Two things are infinite: The Universe. And the stupidity of people. Not so sure about the first one, though.“
(Albert Einstein)

ones again it shows that the people in parlement don't work for the people take away the single market trading was the biggest mistake ever made, brexit was made on lies and they all fal for it, now it is again the litle people paying the price.

UK growth will outpace Germany and the eurozone for years to come as the Continent faces a deeper recession caused by higher interest rates.

While both the German and UK economies shrank in the three months to September, putting both at risk of recession, analysts at UBS expect Britain to bounce back within a year.

That is unlike Europe’s largest economy. Berlin is already grappling with a budget crisis after Germany’s top court ruled that the government broke the law by using Covid cash to fund net zero spending.

House prices across the country have also suffered double-digit declines.

There wasn't a problem with the concept of Brexit it was a sound idea, the problem arose because Doris had no intention of following through with his promise to get the country out from under the thumb of Brussels.
THIS ALL FALLS AT THE FEET OF TORY PARTY, they failed the British public.
