This little she shanty from Mark and Pete is an original work about the lovely British fishing Industry and the promises of the British government about said industry on the occasion of Brexit. Fishing was one of the final sticking points in the post-Brexit trade talks. While fishing is a tiny part of the economy on both sides of the Channel, it carries big political weight.
Regaining control over UK waters was a key part of the Leave campaign in 2016.
Now that the new UK/EU agreement - on trade and so much else - has come into force, what does it mean for fishing?
What's the deal in a nutshell?
EU boats will continue to fish in UK waters for some years to come
But UK fishing boats will get a greater share of the fish from UK waters
That shift in the share will be phased in between 2021 and 2026, with most of the quota transferred in 2021
After that, there'll be annual negotiations to decide how the catch is shared out between the UK and EU
The UK would have the right to completely exclude EU boats after 2026
But the EU could respond with taxes on exports of British fish to the EU or by denying UK boats access to EU waters
