That's because you've mixed up the fishing rights with ownership. The only one who owns every body of water is mother nature, and she doesn't sign contracts or treaties with anyone. Ownership of the waters and fishing rights are not the same thing. |

I know exactly what you are saying, but what I am saying 71% of Earth is covered in water, you can lay claim to land but not water... hence
The seas and oceans are considered to be a 'global commons', which means that they belong to everyone and no one at the same time. However, countries do have the right to claim 'exclusive economic zones' (EEZs) up to 200 nautical miles from their coastlines
So the UK should stop illegal migrants and return them to France when they reach 199 nautical miles from France, because they are still in French waters.

I don't even think it would be legal to sell off parts of UK waters to foreigners , how the fuck can you sell off parts of your rivers, seas and oceans, who's making all this nonsense up? That's because you've mixed up the fishing rights with ownership. No we haven't Andy you were the one who tried to imply different |

Now you are mixing up territorial waters, ownership of seas and fishing rights.
They are not connected.
There are only 27 nautical miles between UK and France.

The law states we can lay claim to our waters within 200 nautical miles of our coastlines , which means France can fuck off fishing in our waters, if this government ever grows a set of balls and tells them fuck off. |

At least settling on Mars isn't likely to become a reality, especially if we completely bugger up the planet we're living on.
Though, we may learn how to counter the problems we're causing — in which case it will be useful knowledge to take with us... Shall I put your name down?  Is this the new crypto — invest now and sell on when the price rises...? |

Yes absolutely, would you be interested in our timeshare deals, they will be up and running in 2056, invest now, just think you'll own your own plot of timeshare land on Mars, spread the word, best be quick though, we've already sold half the planet 7,000 miles, would be sad if you missed out on this once in a lifetime opportunity.  |

Who owns UK fishing rights?
It is known that foreign ownership of fishing rights is widespread – at a conservative estimate, around 20 per cent of English and Welsh fishing rights are owned by a handful of Spanish, Dutch and Icelandic companies, although this number could be higher. Why the fuck do they own any part of our waters FFS? You can say the same about all the offshore wind farms. Remember all this crap we were told about we were going to be a leader in Green technology? I don't think we own a single site. A lot is Norwegian. The people of this country can't run a pissup in a brewery. We have gone from being one of the most technologically advanced and innovative counties in the world to a status of jungle bunny. |

With cod and chips costing anywhere from £9 to £11.50 round here, it's less costly to get our takeaway protein from chicken, Chinese, Indian or kebab sellers. Mind you, Junior and the Roti Stop offer good value too... £31 in the Mayfair Chippy. |

My idea on Mars is sounding better by the minute.
