| Dec 18, 2020 at 13:29 | comment | added | 264 champagne bottles on ice | The rest of this answer however is a bit senseless, as the UK could still export all that fish to the EU, if tariffs weren't erected by the EU in response, which they'd actually have to if the relationship falls back to WTO terms en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… | |
| Dec 18, 2020 at 13:23 | comment | added | 264 champagne bottles on ice | @nwp: the issue is a bit OT, but it's actually well known "Overall, the UK imports 70% of the fish it eats and exports 80% of what it catches." Also kar.kent.ac.uk/54790 | |
| Dec 18, 2020 at 0:21 | comment | added | Lio Elbammalf | @Strawberry One dodgy chippy doesn't make a case. For what its worth I've noticed Haddock and Plaice are alternatives pretty much everywhere with Skate and Hake not rare options either. Your post reads as very opinionated at the moment - I recommend removing those comments. | |

| Dec 17, 2020 at 17:23 | comment | added | Strawberry | @pjc50 I think it's considered food fraud only when substituting one product for another of lesser value. I like to think my chippy is lazy, not crooked - but maybe it's all pollocks; It's all encrusted in thick batter, so I wouldn't really know. | |

| Dec 17, 2020 at 13:21 | comment | added | Jontia | @F1Krazy exports vs imports to and from EU only. Exports exceed imports by 100,000 tonnes. And it seems pretty clear that the UK doesn't eat what it can catch. Though it's confused with many fish being both imported and exported. | |
| Dec 17, 2020 at 12:29 | comment | added | Strawberry | I'm British. The haddock in my local chippy is simply cod with an 'H' on the box. Ask your chippy how much cod they sell relative to other sea fish. | |
| Dec 17, 2020 at 12:28 | comment | added | F1Krazy | As a Brit, I'd like to see some citations for that first paragraph (as in, links to the sites where you found that information). Most fish-and-chips shops here (of which I can assure you there are thousands) will offer you multiple alternatives to cod. | |

| Dec 17, 2020 at 11:58 | comment | added | nwp | This is a rant, not an answer. You should provide a source that the UK is not interested in their fish and that therefore the UK wants to sell fish in the EU instead, but that that requires a trade deal. So while they could agree to fish in their own territory it doesn't solve the fishing dispute. At least I think that's the point you're trying to make, I'm not sure. | |
