End all EU fishing rights in UK waters until France stops small boats

Closed 2,273 signatures

What the petition asks

We urge the Government to end all EU fishing rights in UK waters until France stops small boats coming to the UK. We believe it is costing far too much money and cannot continue. If this is done, the Government could have more money to spend on other services and crime may decrease.
We believe it could help our economy and our police if we have more money to invest in the UK. We feel the Government is not doing enough. We are also concerned that the UK is paying millions of pounds to France, and we believe the French police is not doing enough to combat small boats coming to the UK.
