All At Sea

It is welcome that the SNP intends to vote against the Brexit deal. That party's ridiculous position deserves to be interrogated. It professes to wish to save the fisheries, while at the same time it advocates reaccession to the European Union.

Britain is to remain subject both to the Common Fisheries Policy for at least five and a half years, and to the State Aid rules forever, thereby spitting in the faces of the people and places that swung the referendum for Leave.

Labour intends to vote in favour of this, a far cry from the days when the Miliband Leadership was calling for the repatriation of industrial and regional policy while voting against an increase in the British contribution to the EU's budget. But I am the Independent parliamentary candidate for North West Durham. What are you doing?
