Massive trawler arrives in Irish waters

#1 Post by Stan »

This is worth reading…..bearing in mind that there are no discards from next January, So trawlers can keep everything. I wonder who pushed this forward in Europe!!!!!!!!!! We also have quota swapping, whatever that means. Of course the boat is “probably" involved in legitimate fishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like our waters are about to be cleaned out.

I would suggest that this email is passed on to everybody that you know and that we try to get everybody to write to Simon Coveney.
