Overfishing is a thing

Says Greenpeace? That's rather like NATO telling us Russia is a threat. Whatever it takes to get a large budget.

Overfishing is a thing, but we're not engaged with such activities. We've been sustainably fishing for a long, long time. Don't get me wrong, we've had our problems over the years, like 3 "Cod wars" with Iceland, which ultimately they won. That was the beginning of fishing decline in the UK. We had to conceded large swathes of marine territory because Iceland threatened to pull out of NATO. Did we start overfishing the waters we can fish? No, because we're not stupid.

We don't need to be partonised about such issues, not least from fucking Greenpeace. I note the words "UK", "Britain" and "England" are not part of the article which admittedly I didn't read.

A think-tank has placed the UK at the top of an international league table of overfishing.

I read that and couldn't be bothered any more. A think tank? Utter bollocks. We've been fishing for centuries. I also noted Scottish Fishing has something to say about it. The Scottish want to remain in the EU, so naturally they jump on anything that supports their case.

And this is still besides the point. If this is about sustainability, then nobody should be fishing those waters. That isn't what's happening, or at least it wasn't when we voted. I actually don't know what's going on there now, I haven't researched this in depth since the vote.
