My point was that no matter what's happening in the fishing industry, the decline alone isn't indicative of the need to step in. Industries change for all kinds of reasons.
If the fishermen are hurting, that's a fact on the ground we can work with. What's their proposed change? That seems to go against what their politicians say will happen if they get what they're protesting for... so something's not in line.
If what they're asking for wont change their problem, then there's a good reason to not put much weight in what they're asking for.
I'm just pointing out that both of you can be right on this issue... The fishermen are hurting and want Brexit to alleviate their hurt. AND Politicians know that whatever happens with Brexit isn't going to affect the change the fishermen want.
They're not mutually exclusive.

In Holland, yeah. Doesn't speak to there being a market in the UK, though.
