  1. Are these the same fishermen that have fucked up selling into EU markets?

    Those are soverign seals and I stand by their right to eat the fish you no longer can sell.

    Get the fuck over it

  2. Imagine being a fisherman in Cornwall, with a good boat, all your Modern fishing technology, And being so unbelievably shit at fishing that a black bin liner filled with bacon grease manages to catch, by your reckoning, 53 times as much fish as you do. Which according to actual marine biologists is a whopping 6 kilos of fish per day.

    Now I don’t know about you but I’d maybe be asking some questions if this is really the career for me.

  3. > It’s likely that seals – through tourism-related activities – contribute more to the UK economy than the fishing industry does

    Lol.

    But seriously, they need to reevaluate their life choices. Seals aint going nowhere.
