Man the Brits really want their cod
Holy shit I can't stop laughing
They should make a movie series out of this.
This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time 💀
This is funnier than the whisky wars
Why not 11th Cold War?
Lmao you're awesome
fish and chips industry literally actually on life support.
The chippy’s have fallen
you've heard of One Piece, get ready for Cod Piece
We need a big medieval cod piece emote.
Who had Fourth Cod War on their 2024 predictions.
Cod four: No british.
Not my problem
it's actually not their problem either
they won't be able to make the hooks with which to catch the fish anyway
Problem solved and mission accomplished
Where is your cod now, anglos?
Now the government of Sunak's regime will have no free fish anymore.
russia gaining back its sovereignty
Good, may they never return. There's no reason they should anyway; not like Russians can't be the ones to fish in their own waters...
Are they allowed to catch other fish there?
for now
Okay, that was an attempted joke. Having skimmed the article, I see they're not catching fish in the traditional sense, but farming them. I envisioned fishing as "you catch what you catch," so it just seemed strange to me that they would be specifically barred from catching haddock and cod, as if it was something in their direct control. Apparently it is.
Not that trawlers are especially discriminating. Historically, they just scrape everything and throw the illegal stuff back in the water.
No steel, no steelhead.
Happy hunting to the Coast Guard! Britain should fish its own waters. (Oops, Thatcher destroyed the domestic British fishing industry).
