The UK fishing industry is being sold down the river by Starmer - Yorkshire Post Letters

From: Peter Auty, Sunnybank, Great Hatfield.

A new report claims that the UK fishing industry is struggling due to Brexit. Is it not the disastrous negotiations last year between the EU and Keir Starmer that allowed the French fishermen to trawl our fishing grounds for an extra 12 years without any benefits for the UK?

Brexit can't be blamed for this irresponsible behaviour, this is not negotiating, this an almighty give away.

It’s time this government started to look at the many problems in the UK, out of control immigration, not enough jobs or dwellings for all the immigrants, roads are in a dire state, hospitals and schools crumbling, the NHS tottering by, welfare and the benefit system out of control, higher and higher taxation, crime, especially violent crime escalating, unemployment rising, inflation too high, farmers and pensioners up in arms, unnecessary strikes, water companies polluting our rivers and seas, these are just a few problems.

It’s time "never here Keir" started to make some serious inroads into the many problems here in the UK.

The Labour party promised change, things are getting worse on a daily basis.
