UK-EU deal a ‘horror show’, say Scottish fishing leaders

A new 12-year deal will see EU vessels continue to have access to UK waters.

Scottish fishing leaders say a deal struck between the UK and EU is a “horror show” and a “failure of Government”.

The agreement will include a 12-year deal over fishing, which means EU vessels will continue to have access to UK waters.

The Scottish Government has criticised ministers for having made the agreement “without any involvement” of devolved powers.

The UK Government says the deal will allow easier imports and exports of food and drink to Europe.
