Another globalist NGO taking a swing at Trump. They're just mad because he's actually doing what he said he would. Pacific fishing? More like Pacific sovereignty. Trump 2026.
ffs, here we go again. These big countries think they can just do whatever they want in our Pacific. We're not just a pond for them to fish in.
yes, the 'NGO' that knows better than sovereign nations. Totally not a front for some other agenda.
As an environmental science student, this is so frustrating. Overfishing will destroy the livelihoods of entire island nations. Does nobody think about the future?
Typical. American comes in, takes our fish, leaves nothing. And our government just sits there and takes it. Where's the backbone?
not sure what the big deal is, we've got plenty of fish. surely they can take some?

the big deal is that we're already overfishing. Letting the US in will collapse local fisheries. But sure, ignore science.
haha yeah right, because 'plenty' lasts forever. have you seen the state of the oceans?
Let them fish, it's not like they're bombing us. Focus on real problems.
ok ok i get it. sorry, just seemed like a big fuss over nothing. point taken.
I work in the fishing industry. This will cost jobs. Not just for them, but for our guys too. Global quotas exist for a reason. This is pure greed.
guy gets it. I've seen the quotas get slashed year after year. This will just accelerate it.
Morning coffee and more depressing news. Wonder if the PM will say something or just tweet about the rugby.
