Did Brexit actually work out for the UK fishing industry?

The i Podcast - A podcast by The i Paper - Wednesdays

Brexit was supposed to revive the fishing industry. Free of the shackles of Brussels rules, the UK’s fishing fleets would once more be able to make the most of British coastal waters and revitalise their coastal communities.This is what Boris Johnson told Ian Perkes in Devon back in 2019. Four years later, the Brixham fish merchant’s business has seen sales plummet 30 per cent and export costs rise by as much as £3,000 a week.In this week’s episode of The i Podcast with our chief news correspondent, David Parsley, we are going to take a look at what went wrong.Then we are joined by i‘s chief features writer, Kasia Delgado, who has been looking at the four-decades-long deal between the media and the Royal Family, that has come under intense scrutiny.As Prince Harry’s bombshell claims continue to make waves – the media’s relationship to the Royal Family is fraying, and Kasia takes us behind the scenes on how this deal is being upended. Produced by Julia Webster.
