THREAD ON FISHING: I've spent hours poring over the #BrexitDeal
* There are 87 species of fish subject to shared EU/UK quotas

* In 2020, across them all, UK gets average 33.6% of quotas

* In 2026, it "rises" to 35.92%

>> So the UK gets just 2.32% more fish after Brexit <<

For the UK, post Brexit 7 species increase between 10-14%, 6 species increase between 5-10%. 42 species increase between 0-5%

But by far the most common (32/87) = stays same

This is pp 893-896 of the Agreement. Does this feel like an Independent Coastal state to you?

On ICCAT (International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas) the EU takes minimum 98.48% of species (0.25% bluefin tuna, 0.01% swordfish!)

In species only in one Party's waters, EU takes huge share in 9/12 species. But the worst is to come...
