🚨 “Brexit, to me, never materialised.” The devastating verdict of Shetland fisherman Tom Robertson. He says Norwegian fishermen are laughing at British fishermen because they cannot believe how badly our fishing industry is governed. “We’re a laughing stock.” Norwegian vessels are catching hundreds of tonnes of fish in waters around Shetland while local fishermen struggle with restrictive quotas, soaring fuel costs and dwindling incomes. And the great Brexit promise? 🦄 Take back control 🦄 What an extraordinary humiliation. But here’s the point: Remainers warned this would happen. Fish don’t recognise national borders. Fishing rights require international negotiations. And access to European markets matters just as much as access to fishing grounds. The promises were never realistic. British fishermen were promised control of their waters. British farmers were promised freedom and prosperity outside the EU. Both were mis-sold a fantasy of sovereignty without the economic consequences. Now Norwegian fishermen are reportedly laughing at the very people who were promised Brexit would restore their power. Remainers weren’t predicting disaster because we wanted Britain to fail. We warned about it because we understood the consequences. The tragedy isn’t simply that Brexit failed to deliver. It’s that the warnings were dismissed, the promises went unfulfilled, and the people who made them have escaped accountability. You cannot feed a nation on Brexit slogans.
