"Fishermen are to rename two of their biggest exports in a bid to attract British consumers after post-Brexit difficulties selling to the EU. Megrim sole is to be sold as Cornish sole, with spider crab being rebranded as Cornish King crab. It is being driven by the Cornish Fish Producers Organisation (CFPO) after research with chefs and consumers."

Not really brexit related ( a little though) , but does anyone watch Cornwall : This Fishing Life on bbc 2 ? It’s a really interesting show I think . The spider crabs 🦀 biggest market until recently was China but the market for these stopped after our recent dispute with them . |

Be nice if all this leads to cheaper crab though, mmmm crab. |

Get Brexit done? It's only just started, Groundhog Day, this time financial services. "Andrew Bailey said the City wanted to reach an agreement on financial rules, but would not accept being "dictated" to by Brussels. Both sides are working towards a March deadline to agree an "equivalence" regime under which each would recognise the other's regulation. But Mr Bailey said EU demands had so far been unreasonable. "I'm afraid a world in which the EU dictates and determines which rules and standards we have in the UK isn't going to work," the governor said in his annual Mansion House speech to the City, this year held virtually. "Is the EU going to cut the UK off from itself? There are signs of an intention to do so at the moment but I think that would be a mistake," he added. "We have to state the argument for global standards and markets and openness and if we all sign up to that then there's no need to go in that direction." Financial services - a key driver of the UK economy - were largely omitted from the last-minute Brexit trade deal agreed in December. As a result the City has been cut off from EU markets since 1 January, something that is already causing the £135bn industry to lose business to hubs such as Amsterdam. But Brussels says it will not be rushed into decisions on granting access for UK financial firms, as it wants to see how far UK rules will diverge from its own. It follows fears the UK will adopt a low-regulation Singapore-style model that would undercut the EU." www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56017419 |

Tbh that's rubbish ,having spent all my life in the Banking Industry the difference between regulation and oversight in the UK to what passes for regulation in the EU is seismic,the UK has long been at the forefront of Regulation post the free for all of the 80s/90s ,what Jes Staley was referring to is the opportunity in the Capital markets outside the EU,we have to remember that the EU is not the centre of the universe particularly when it comes to Financial services and capital markets. I find their approach to negotiation very negative instead of working on what we can do together to improve the life of ordinary folk it's more a tell tell style . |

It's been a while since the catastrophe of 2008 so there must be something money spinning coming up to entice that maggot back in to it. |

If we get a stuffing econimically because of Brexit (+the virus of course). the EU will too. Take away those EU exports to us and the EU will hurt. And we can go on holiday to Turkey, N Africa, Cyprus Caribbean etc. Don't think Spain Italy & Greece will like that much and sit by watching. We will be saying "well we'd like to come to you place, but....".

The Eu exports have fallen 14% and the UK’s 68% ...... we’re definitely winning there ! 🇬🇧 |
