JUST WHEN WE THOUGHT THAT FOR THEM, THE BREXIT WAR WAS OVER...
FOR four tempestuous days and nights the trawler Sam of Ladram had been scooping up cuttlefish, 20 miles off our South-West coast.
By Thursday morning the storm had abated, and I watched its five crew offload the inky catch known as 'black gold' in these parts in their home port of Brixham, Devon.

Crew from fishing boat â€oeSam of Ladramâ€ unload a valuable catch of cuttlefish which sells to Italy and Spain. The ship is based in Brixham, Devon. After Brexit, Wholesaler Ian Perksâ€ business has seen a steep reduction in orders and an increased paperwork load to sell to European buyers.
