    I think we need to scale back and look at the bigger issue here.

    The UK government has stated in its own parliament that it's prepared to break an international agreement, so why should it be believed in any dispute.

    I don't know which side is in the right on this issue, but I do know that this UK government isn't trustworthy.

    The big fish news did at least divert a few headlines from relatively meaningless things like the Budget.

    It also diverted attention from the OBR report on the negative economic impact of Brexit. Fish is all they have now.

    Assuming the saving is passed to consumers and not pocketed by any well-known outspoken owners of large pub chains then you could save a small fortune as long as you consume around 100 pints a day.

    I've not followed the details of the latest fishing row that closely, Strolls, but the French have a little 'previous' when it comes to signing up to EU rules and regulations and then protesting when it doesn't work for them.

    [Does BoJo do anything is 'good faith'? I doubt it]
