It is the main reason the EU is keen for the poorer eastern countries to join. keep them out of Putins reach. No wonder he loving the result

Yet they still want the UK government to guarantee the same level of support that the EU was giving their region... Maybe the UK government should link the level of financial support they get to the fortunes of the economy. If the Brexit they supported brings the wealth and benefit that Brexiteers were claiming it should, then they will be in clover!
LOL - UK turning back into a country of hunters and gatherers selling fish ... after earning currently the main share of their foreign income with (mainly financial) services. A step into the right direction - REALLY?
I see them in future competing on a level basis with Greenland and New Zealand to sell fish to the world ... Lose-lose?

HON Tim Grosser
Minister of Trade
MEDIA STATEMENT
Trade Minister Tim Grosser has welcomed an announcement today by Prime Minister David Cameron under the Commonwelth trade Priorities and Accountabilities Act 2016.
"Specifically we are on a 90 day count down after which NZ domiciled poms will have their citizenship revoked requiring them to return to the Uk" says Mr Grosser
"Our own Cabinet has agreed that this is a mutually benificial agreement which will see the average intelligence of both nations increase over the term of the transition"
"Soon after this period commences we expect other commonwealth nations will meet to sign similar agreements, except Australia who have signalled they need to retain as much intellectual capacity as possible" says Mr Grosser.
"Step by step we are commited to improving the lot of our UK partners. To this end in a special meeting Cabinet yesterday approved a special fund that would see Vaughan Coveny seconded to the English Football team as special advisor."
"The N Z government will take the actions required to open up significant long term benifits for new Zealanders from our first ever post Brexit free trade deal" says Mr Grosser
END OF RELEASE
completely wrong ...working in the NZ Fishing industry I can understand the issues the small UK F.V have . the hate toward local small privately owned fisherman over foreign operators fair dumbfounds me ....(not long before the Foreign slave trawlers are removed from NZ fishing grounds, thanks to national gov)
EU over fishing

FISHING
Out of the EU the UK will regain control of our fishing grounds.
The Common Fishing Policy has done huge damage to our fish stocks and has allowed factory ships from the continent to come and take so much of our fish. A UK domestic policy could be more successful at husbanding our fishing grounds and giving priority to UK vessels. Norway, Iceland and Canada show how.
-Outside the EU the UK will be free to buy more of our own food in the UK without the problems of EU procurement laws.-
