Seafood lorries travel to Westminster for protest against Brexit red tape

Fishers losing their livelihoods' as delays hamper exports to the EU and trucks return empty

Fishing lorries from Scotland and Devon have descended on Westminster to stage a protest against the Brexit red tape they say is either delaying or ruining exports of their fresh shellfish to the EU.

Trucks with slogans including Brexit carnage" and Incompetent government destroying shellfish industry" parked metres from Downing Street on Monday, but they stopped short of carrying out their threat last week to dump fresh fish close to No 10.
