@MartinDaubney This is the attitude of people who know absolutely nothing about the fishing industry, or the history. The industry overfished for decades, they used trawlers & massive nets, which over time reduced the number of fish. The EU fishing quota policy, was all about Sustainability.

@mippy @paulduanefilm Mostly I think it boils down to the absurdity of using the voices & opinions of celebrities, as if they are somehow more important & valid. GN basically said "why the f*ck do you need my opinion?"

@thecarolemalone They live here Carole, they do not live in China. They are British citizens, not Chinese. They are appealing to British politicians, as British politicians can impact on policy here and can use political leverage with other countries. Incredible that you do not understand this.

@_HenryBolton Do you ask where your income comes from, or do you just accept and enjoy it? I suspect you enjoy an income far in excess of those you are critical but what is it exactly, that you do, which makes you of greater value than them?

@andie1105 How many do not? How many have only parts of, being those parts which are essential on this modern world, to keep in touch, to be aware of world events etc.,? Why so interested in punching down or accepting some people who are indeed impoverished?

@TPointUK Weird how a right wing libertarian outfit seems to be pro stop & search. How is such a policy in any way aligned to a libertarian mindset?

@tgpsmith @loisoliviaj Barely anyone works over 5 x harder than someone on the mean average, they're normally just in a more advantageous position, the gross would imply they work over 10 x harder..... And Jeff Bezos works millions of times harder.... This is neither logical nor is it reality

@tomhfh @nytopinion Anything other than the ad hominems that you can objectively criticise, or are you out of ammo there? There were an awful lot of truths in that video, hardly an example of misinformation

The entire notion of a free press, is for it to be free to challenge the authorities, the government and the party of government. If the press isn't doing that, and is heavily partisan, then it acts as a propaganda arm for the owners of it and/or the polticial party in power
