Brexit- a sea of opportunities?

Westminster Hour

Available for over a year

The UK's fishing community voted heavily in favour of leaving the EU, with many complaining of losing out to foreign fleets under the EU's Common Fisheries Policy. With the Brexit negotiations looking set to begin in a matter of months, British fishermen will be seeking a deal that will return fishing grounds to UK control and protect their interests. The Westminster Hour's John Beesley headed to Shetland, where fishing brings around £300 million a year to the UK economy.
