A genuine benefit of brexit

"The protection of Dogger Bank is that rare thing — a Brexit dividend. There are multiple ironies to it, though. The Dogger was theoretically protected a decade or so ago by the UK government under the EU habitats directive — written by the prime minister’s father, Stanley Johnson, when he was an EU official. Then nothing happened, because there is an unhelpful conflict in European law between nature conservation and the common fisheries policy that has yet to be resolved.
When the common fisheries policy ended in UK waters after Brexit, ministers from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs were — our charity had to remind them — obliged to enforce the nature laws we had inherited from Europe. There was no longer any conflict in law." |  |

Can't lie. At first glance I thought this was one for Keno. |  |

Fantastic news. Let's hope they don't rewrite the law to remove the EU habitats directive protections we've inherited. |  |
