My comment to the EurActiv report on the Fisheries Council meeting today.

My comment to the EurActiv report on the shameful fisheries meeting held today is pasted herewith:

"The disgraceful manner in which the EU behaves towards the third world is particularly evident in the fisheries agreements by which it forces small, economically vulnerable, independent island sovereign states to hand over the treasures of their surrounding seas to be plundered by the voacious appetites of the giant factory fishing trawlers, deployed across the world as a consequence of the EU’s own once rich seas of Britain, Holland and Denmark having been greedily denuded of fish."

The above is from a posting titled "Europe’s appalling African colonial administrative attitudes now at play within the EU." posted on 'Orphans of Liberty' and 'Ironies Too' on Saturday 17th March 2012, please visit either blog for the full seriuosness and shame of what is now in progress to be fully appreciated.

My reply to John Redwood this morning - Fisheries

Your comment is awaiting moderation.
The EU has quite deliberately as a matter of intentional policy been destroying the fish stocks around the British Isles. I have been reugularly blogging on this fact since 2003 without any affect.
This is a prime example of the hidden agenda of the EU to economically pillage the British Isles. Had they thought that the British people would not eventually reclaim their assets in their surrounding seas they would never have condoned such action in consideration of their known long term interests. It is good to finally see the Backbench Business Committee now consider such a proposal.
There is a typical example of one of such posts from 2oth October 2003 quoting the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) report on the destruction quoted in full on Ironies Too this morning, in view of its length.
I would wager the Continentals who planned this pillage are amazed that our politicians are so inept we have allowed this plundering to continue for so long!

 A search link to other Ironies blog links is here. The posting of 10th October 2003, referred to above, was as follows:

EU Confirmation of Fisheries Destruction


The midday Press Releases from Brussels today include this confirmation of how they have almost totally destroyed Britains fishery stocks and future. (Remember this has been accomplished with the connivance of several British Governments; mainly Conservative) :-

Quote

The first indications from the scientific advice released by the independent International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) confirm the need for the recovery measures proposed by the European Commission to ensure the rebuilding of a number of endangered fish stocks. ICES advice is rather stark for a number of stocks including cod in the North Sea, Skagerrak, Eastern Channel, Irish Sea and West of Scotland for which ICES advises zero catch. Its advice is the same for whiting in the Irish Sea. In the case of hake from Ireland down to Portugal, ICES recommends rebuilding plans and zero catch for the southern hake stock. Rebuilding plans are also advised for plaice in the North Sea, cod and plaice in the Celtic Sea and sole in the western Channel and Bay of Biscay. It is not all bad news, however. Some stocks such as North Sea haddock, mackerel and saithe are, according to ICES, in a more healthy condition. The issues that the Commission will discuss with the fisheries sector at the end of October will include ways of allowing continued fisheries on stocks that are in a more healthy state but that are caught along with endangered ones. One example is North Sea haddock whose catches include by-catches of cod which is currently an endangered stock. The advice can be found on the internet at http://www.ices.dk

EU now destroying Pacific fish stocks

There is no limit to the EU's ambitions for ever more non-democratic authoritarian power grabs. Read the vicious malevolence in this press release from today's Europa Midday Express, linked here:

The EU overall catch limit was fixed at 27 000 tonnes for 2012, a sharp reduction from 135 000 tonnes in 2010. However, the Commission is concerned with Peru's lack of cooperation. Peru set a unilateral quota for its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), which does not comply with the scientific advice and risks to undermine the general effort deployed from all other Participants in the fishery for the conservation and management of the jack mackerel stock. The SPRFMO Convention will likely enter into force before the end of 2012, allowing the SPRFMO to start working properly at the beginning of 2013. At the moment, all decisions are taken on voluntary basis.

A stink of rotting fish

I said it all years ago and running out of words finally resorted to quoting Christopher Booker's column from the Sunday Telegraph, eight years ago this weekend. Read today's EU press release regarding our fishless seas, from here, or re-read that posting:
§§§§§
Fisheries Fiasco

Christopher Booker in his Sunday Telegraph column takes up the subject covered in some detail here yesterday, namely the treasonable situation now pertaining to Britain's fisheries.

Seas fouled with rotting fish in the name of conservation

This journalist mentions the years of pointless protest he has individually mounted regarding what has been allowed to happen to what once was one of our island nation's most precious resources: its surrounding seas, and ends his piece as follows:-

To this Mr Blair's Government raised no objection. So the ultimate responsibility for the obscene disaster unfolding around Britain's coasts lies with our own Government and with every MP who tacitly allows it to continue.

Pleas to the non-existent consciences of Government Ministers and MPs have proved entirely fruitless in the past and will do so again. Only criminal proceedings and rigorous police efforts to find and arrest the culprits can now be sufficient and force action. Arguments that no crime has been committed cannot hold water when as Booker reports:-

Meanwhile they watch their French competitors pulling in huge catches of cod quite legally, because France's quota in these British waters is 10 times larger than that permitted to Britain.

Britain has not been an occupied country for centuries and we have had continuous Government for as long. What is happening has therefore been allowed by individual responsible ministers and they must be brought to account and their motives fully exposed. They have attempted to sell off a huge part of the birthright of the people of this nation, in the process they have lied to Parliament and the electorate, and their successors have continued to cover-up and dissemble. The results have been seen and reported upon by our own fisherman who are witnessing the scandal with their own eyes and having their livliehoods removed from their own pockets while the culprits and their successors grow fat in Brussels.

This is the biggest scandal of our lifetime and those in politics know it. Heath bought our way into Europe with our marine resources, he lied about it in Parliament and every government since has become a party to that lie as they fail to correct the matter. They cannot keep the facts from the people forever, maybe this situation will be the much needed alarm call!

The Greek woman who will wipe all life from Britain's seas!

Maria Damanaki, has no business involving herself in control of one of Britain's greatest national resources.

Nevertheless, due to the treachery of various of our past leaders and their treacherous, money grubbing and self serving political parties, she has been given such powers. Today she plans to deliver the coup de grace to Britain's fishing industry, read here.

Edward Heath, when leader of the Conservative Party, lied to the House of Commons, to the effect that Britain would never lose control of its fish nor its seas.

Why does the country continue to tolerate being governed by a similar, lying head of that same Conservative Party?

Please read "Foreign Office lying, oil and fish" an earlier posting on this blog, from here.

David Cameron and dead fish.

Yesterday I blogged about the EU having thrown up their hands in despair over their fisheries non-policy and their own amazing suggestion that matters now be handed back to the member states. This same idea was once Conservative Party policy before the arrival of poster boy, non-EU policies, Cameron. Silence still reigns on the issue from both Government and opposition parties. It is not enough,however, to solely rail against the original treachery, which saw little Norway renege on their negotiated entry to the Common Market at the same time as Britain joined, because their people were asked and they saw that their fisheries would be destroyed. The EU today holds that same country, Norway up as one example of how they themselves should have managed what they consider to be "their" seas. It was all easily foreseeable, after all the extinction of the EU fisheries and an ensuing dispute with Norway was the trigger I used in my novel, written in the mid-nineteen nineties, for the attempted consolidation of totalitarian control over Europe. The steady slaughter and extinction of EU fish has been a constant topic on this blog and elsewhere. The UKIP sent a fishing boat up the Thames to protest at the last European elections - all ignored! What has Cameron done on fish since he wrested control of the party in the farce that was supposedly a fair election. First he appointed a Shadow Fisheries Minister from an inland constituency who was removed after taking some interest in the topic, the following is from the blog EU Referendum, linked here, whose editor Dr Richard North has made himself an acknowledged expert on this ongoing disaster: As Owen Paterson (pictured in right of photo) proved with his consultation paper on fisheries (after witnessing the obscenity of discarding for himself), there is no bar whatsoever to maintaining sustainable fisheries and banning discards. The problem is the EU itself, which insists on quotas as the only fisheries management system that it is capable of operating from Brussels – despite the devastating environmental impact. So where is Owen Paterson today? Shadow for Northern Ireland! Moved along by none other than David Cameron! (Lesson - Do not dare criticise the EU in Dave's Tory Party) Where do the Tories stand today on restoring Britain's fisheries to national control - AS NOW REQUESTED BY THE EU? - nowhere, see this link to their ludicrous policy page on the EU from here. What of their ridiculous campaign for a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty launched today? It is meaningless, headed by a man, William Hague, too busy making money to have aided in the 2005 election campaign, his moral compass distorted by some 180 degrees of magnetic deviation, presumably caused from the base metals from which the filthy lucre he worships is coined! The man who as party leader promised to re-negotiate the Nice Treaty now campaigns for a referendum that with his party's other policies can only serve to put his country back under the control of the Nice Treaty provisions. This is a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, subject to so many provisos which the Conservative Party itself conspires within the EU to obtain and thus ensure it will never take place. Firstly by bullying the Irish; secondly by conspiring to sideline the Czech President at the next June summit and thirdly by relying on the historical imperial ambitions of Germany to overcome the objections, otherwise certain to prevail, in the German Constitutional Court. Even more seriously than hoping to overcome these three main obstacles to what is really the EU Constitutional Treaty, by trying to avoid the dilemma of what they would do about Britain and the EU in the event the Labour Government were to fall before Lisbon Treaty ratification by all other countries, the Conservative Party effectively maintain this incompetent and spendthrift British Government in power as a means of keeping suppressed their own apparently insuperable policy contradictions over Europe. Britain is a non-player in the great events and movements swirling across the Continent because it has been stripped of power by its totally corrupted political class. Want more proof, then consider why the German Chancellor telephoned the British Prime Minister on the morning of the Budget last week, why Prince Charles, our heir apparent being in the Vatican yesterday now moves on to Germany and the implications of the actions of the present day Conservative Party (forgetting if you can the traitor Heath) over our now Dead and even Extinct Fish!

EU failure on Fisheries just the start.

The Sunday Times report, linked here, on the belated admission that the EU policy on fishing has been a complete failure and absolute disaster, made by the EU Commissioner responsible, should mark the beginning of similar admissions by every other EU Commissioner in every other area in which the EU operates and therefore, if we were completely honest, exploits. If the leaders of the EU member states truly wished to start putting their peoples interests first, and never have the economics been more demanding of just that, then all EU activities would be halted with the end of the present Commission and Parliament and a period of respite from the never-ending onslaught of petty regulation and interference could help in bringing forward the moment when Europe's diverse economies could be put to rights. The opening paragraphs of the Sunday Times article are as follows:

Europe’s fishing industry is on the brink of suicide and several species are in danger of extinction after 25 years of policy failure,the European Commission said yesterday.

Officials admitted five key failings in the EU’s Common Fisheries Policy as they prepared to tear up the idea of a centrally dictated strategy. They launched the search for an alternative, saying that much of the responsibility for fishing must be returned to EU member states.
