We had a thriving fishing industry which the EU ruined
(compare it to Norway & Iceland which sensibly kept out),

They limited our fishing to avoid extinction in the North Sea.

Rubbish. If that was the c ase then the unrestricted fishing by Norway
and Iceland would have obliterated stocks. As it is they are increasing
fast.

Not only that, but our fishermen were restricted, but the Spaniards had
free reign.

Spain didn't join the EU until 1986 and had no access to British
waters for the next 10 years. Fish stock were depleted long before
then.

The EU ruined our fishing industry and Brexit is a way to restore it.
