The reality that the Customs Union and Single Market are as good as a trade deal can get
will slowly sink in. It came into effect on January 1st 1993, but had been agreed after Thatcher sent Arthur (later Baron) Cockfield to negotiate it, which he did in 1986.
The Welsh, and other UK fishermen may complain about the Common Fishery Policy,
but that comes as part of the package of voting for Tory Governments who don't care about their electorate.
I hope the British fishermen are ready for a repeat of history.
