I think it’s more complex for chippies. Fish and chips was meant to be a cheap treat, that’s why it has such a strong working class heritage behind it. So the price rise makes it untenable in a way that may not affect other takeaways. Like, if I’m going to pay £20 for some fish and chips, I might as well have a Chinese. It’s a cultural thing.

That's from a time of plenty, overfishing has decimated fish stocks and trawling is destroying the sea bed.

I'm not going to mourn the loss of that 'industry', we can make sustainable protein, and high prices help to attract investment
