Brexit deal may actually mean less British cod for fish & chips

London

SCOTTISH fisherman Peter Bruce hoped Brexit would allow him to catch more cod, one of Britain's favourite fish dishes. Instead, he is worried he will end up with less.

While Prime Minister Boris Johnson claimed last month's trade deal will let the UK regain control of its fishing waters by taking back 25 per cent of the European Union's rights over five years, many fishermen feel let down. They are upset that the share fell far below original demands and may even mean smaller amounts of some key catches.
