    The clown Creed wants to share the Irish mackerel fishery quotas with the north...
    Minister for the Marine Michael Creed faces a clash with the influential Donegal supertrawler fleet following his decision to review the share-out of the lucrative mackerel fishery.

    Mr Creed has also said he was committed to legislation allowing northern and southern fishing vessels reciprocal fishing rights within the island’s territorial waters, in spite of opposition within the industry.

    Dunno, but I'm really happy he called in whinging about no footpaths on a road and being forced to hitchhike home. Look what he started! :D

    You see people harping on about foreigners fishing our waters. Fact is, we in Ireland have never bothered setting up a major fish processing industry. Thats our fault and nobody to blame but ourselves.

    All the whinging in the world won't fix that.

    Absolutely right. Before we joined the EEC we had plenty of time to build up a major fishing industry. We never bothered our ar$es. Now we blame everything on Europe. Typical Irish, playing the victim card.

    There was clearly no inspections at all taking place by the Irish Navy when they boarded Irish vessels to see all crew had BIM safety training complete, this is a legal requirement like the safe pass for all crew members, a blind eye was shown for decades.

    Isn't that the Irish way though. Expect others to do it for us.
