Seeing Geldof getting owned by an actual fisherman..

@WilliamBolger if only you understood what they went through since 1973..

@WilliamBolger you missed out the impact of the common fisheries policy on their activities, such as the cod wars. That's all that counts. Until you acknowledge that you can't really say anything. Especially if the media is feeding you that narrative. They couldn't care less about ordinary people like them. Also sneered with Geldof at them too. Best not play into their hands. Grimsby before 1973 compared to 2016 is a perfect example.

When an actual fisherman tells someone whose not a fisherman what has really happened. Then you begin to understand.

@WilliamBolger I'm not on about Farage one bit, only the real bloke confronting. Though would love to know who initially asked him to say that. Maybe they need to be investigated. I think you are referring to the deal that is not good for fishermen. Brexit itself wasn't the issue. Plenty of non EU countries are not in the CFP and have thriving fishing communities. Successive governments from both parties since 1973 here have sold them down the river if you pardon the pun.

@WilliamBolger what I just spoke is facts. I already explained the current situation and how we got there, and real life examples. None of that was surely too difficult to understand. But then you bring up a whole different subject. Maybe it is you talking 'manure'.

@WilliamBolger so there are no non EU countries with thriving fishing communities not in the CFP then? That our fishermen long envied since the decline of our industry. I don't keep repeating 1973 for the fun of it you know. But you not being from here or understanding much you probably won't understand. You clearly need to understand your history on this matter. Then you will understand my points instead of waffling and changing the subject. Your insufferable denial of that just shows how seriously you take this (sarcasm). Being a fisherman here after 1973 was basically pointless anyway, precisely thanks to the common fisheries policy and the stuff I outlined previously. Go sort yourself out first.

@WilliamBolger 😂no, but you are desperately shifting the goalposts.

@WilliamBolger You clearly take pleasure in other people's suffering when they disagree with your views. Go get a life instead. Not only are you not a fisherman, but you don't live in the UK. By your very logic that makes your view even more irrelevant on that basis. And calling what I stated bs doesn't actually make it bs just cause you want it to be, especially as you ignored my relevant points deliberately. Geldof should just stick to singing instead. He is good at that 😂 And you stick to farming.
