Last-minute talks to save the UK from a disastrous no-deal “hard Brexit” in less than a month have
stalled on a few remaining issues—one of the biggest being fishing rights. 

Hard Brexit may no longer be the wish
of weary Brits—in fact it’s almost cruel,
but still I’ll do it, and I’ll blame the fish.
Hard Brexit may no longer be the wish
of most, but how they’ll benefit! Well, ish—
it’s bound to help some chaps I knew at school.
Hard Brexit may no longer be our wish,
but still let’s do it. And we’ll blame the fish.
