The reason that sea anglers, like myself, will voting to leave the EU can be summed up in just three words.....Common Fisheries Policy
agreed. there are many parallels between the cfp and other eu driven policies all with similar negative results.
CAP's as big a clusterfk as CFP, only it costs more; it's been reduced from the 87% of budget madness of 1970 but it's still 43% of the EU budget at £49bn. That's not a policy it's a gravy train; we should not be subsidising the cultivation of tobacco or cotton. There's an argument that CAP maintains rural diversity but it's a bit difficult to buy that when 80% of CAP goes to 25% of the EU's farmers; that's not diversity, it's a subsidy for vast agribusiness. Additionally the CAP budget will balloon in the next decade as the newer EU members in the east start getting the same Single Farm Payments as every other part of the EU.
