What date was this? It refers to Hogan who has been gone for some time. The fisheries ultimatum was made by Barnier in the last few days. We don't get to discuss level playing field unless we concede on fishing (where, coincidentally, a big interest comes from Barnier's fellow countrymen in France)

That was Barnier's statement after the last round of official negotiations ended on 21st August.

The way I read his later statements is that the EU won't discuss fishing until the UK has moved on other areas, not the other way round. As I said, once we agree on the Level Playing Field, they'll move on fishing.

LPF is by far the major issue, but for whatever reason, Barnier is raising the anti on fishing. As per his claims in the last couple of days that fish in UK waters belong to the EU
