Barnier-proposed concession ‘unmitigated disaster’, says Killybegs Fishermen’s Organisation

“This is the death knell to the fishing industry,” he said, estimating the impact could cost 5,000 to 6,000 jobs in Ireland.

“The one thing we wanted to avoid was a ‘no-deal’ situation in the interests of all our fishermen but the deal which is now being proposed is every bit as bad. We are looking at vicious and unprecedented cuts on our pelagic, shellfish and whitefish stocks,” he said. President of the Irish Farmers Association Tim Cullinan and the president of the National Farmers Union of England and Wales Minette Batters appealed to both sets of negotiators in the Brexit talks to remain steadfast “in pursuit of an agreement”, for the future trading relationship between the EU and Britain from January 1st.
