Brexit and Fishing Rights

 Excerpt:

"As it stands, Britain will leave Europe’s trade and customs area on Dec. 31, with no prospect of an extension.
A no-deal scenario is widely expected to cause economic chaos, with customs checks required at borders
Concern is particularly acute on the border between EU member Ireland and the British province of Northern Ireland, where the sudden imposition of a hard border threatens the delicate peace secured by 1999’s Good Friday Agreement.
The talks have already dragged on much longer than expected and time is running out for ratification of any deal by the European Parliament by the end of the year."
