Theresa Villiers urges Boris to resist fishing sell-out Boris Johnson was quizzed by Theresa Villiers to pledge to not sell-out the fishing industry in upcoming Brexit negotiations with the EU.
The Prime Minister has repeatedly said the UK will become “an independent coastal nation” post-Brexit.
The Brussels bloc has stood firm and suggested they will request access to British waters in any future agreement with the UK.
Speaking in the Commons, Ms Villiers said: “Will the Prime Minister resist the sell-out of our fishing committees so we can ensure we can take back control of our fishing waters?”
The Prime Minister swiftly replied: “I will indeed. I hope her words are listened to very carefully by the SNP as they would hand back our control of fishing to Brussels.”
