| Description | The Fishing Party were formed to contest the Scottish Parliamentary Election, 2003. They stood candidates in the North East Scotland region for the Scottish Parliament.
Largely a single-issue party, their formation was prompted by those involved in the fishing industry angry at cuts in the amount of fish they were being allowed to catch as a result of the European Union Single Fisheries Policy. The rationale behind their formation was that they were in the best position to represent the fishing industry as they were part of it themselves.
The party has not been registered as a political party with the Electoral Commission since 2003 and is understood to be defunct. |
