It comes after Richard Tice suggested the deal was a “full on surrender” for British fishermen.
Reacting to the announcement of the deal, Farage, the Clacton MP, said on social media: “If true that will be the end of the fishing industry.”
He told GB News the deal was “an abject surrender – the end of the fishing industry.”
