These are stark facts that no Irish politician can justify - - regardless of what Party they belong to surely our TDs and MEPs can clearly see that the Irish fishing industry is getting shafted by the EU.
Addressing this issue and promising to challenge the EU should be the top priority in the next election campaign.
As for our marine minister, read these facts carefully and you might finally understand why no other EU member state has the slightest intention of agreeing to an EU Commission rethink of the Common Fisheries Policy and stop trying to bullshit the Irish public into thinking that you’ve convinced the EU to review the CFP.
