Here, on the west coast of Ireland, our fishing stocks have been decimated by the signing of a European treaty about 15 years ago which not only gave other european countries access to Irish waters, but also restricted the Irish fishing fleet. European super-boats now hoover up our waters and regularly ram small Irish vessels (in some cases sinking and killing crew-members) that are in ‘their’ territory.

Wonder if this refers to the ever-courageous French?

Sounds like the same polititions made our American immigration laws that severely limited the European quotas and flooded our country with Asian, African, and Arab hordes.
