@Peston One statistic I always think about at these moments, is that the bicycle industry is a larger component of the UK economy, and employs more people than fishing.

We are an island nation and fishing communities matter. But the row about the UK’s new fishing deal with the EU is about preserving community cohesion in depressed coastal towns, not about general economic prosperity - because fishing and aquaculture (excluding processing) represents a tiny 0.03% of GDP. It means that for every £1000 of UK economic output, circa 30p comes from fishing and fish farming
