A flotilla of fishing vessels from the South East and and the rest of the Country have arrived in Dublin, via the River Liffey to hand in a letter to the Taoiseach Micheal Martin highlighting the plight of fishermen.
Over 1,000 people are demonstrating outside the Convention Centre to protest against the low fish quotas introduced since Brexit. Fishermen and women can catch just 15 percent of the fish in Irish water - which they say will cost the industry about 4000 jobs. Fishing quotas have to be addressed according to the Industry. They say, years of falling on deaf ears has brought the protest to where it is today. 16,000 jobs between fishermen and the service industry are in jeopardy and there are demands for a dedicated Minister for fisheries.
