I think some Brexiters started to believe their own propaganda and anything that doesn't fit into this Fantasy island approach is naively dismissed as Project Fear.

Both parties are hopelessly divided sadly.

Maybe you should move to the US, Mick instead of trying to create it here? Seems to me you'd be a lot happier - no EU who are obviously making your life a daily misery, Trump on tap and 24/7 Fox news if you like

Nope, I am happy where I am, in my new house, in a country that does NOT need the EU - enjoying my increased wage and I am doing the same JOB, just expect democracy to be fulfilled and we leave as what was democratically decided in 2016!!!

The way you called it, after the referendum result - we'd all be in a recession by now and house prices would collapse - they have been never higher thanks.

P.S Economy is up by 0.6% too. This is all despite Brexit being around the corner!!! Roll on 29th March 2019 when we will be free of the corruption and con job EU membership.

The reality is that democracy was carried out and Leave won the majority vote, by over a million people, nothing "irrational" about that result thanks.

Leave is now enshrined in to law - we leave on 29th March 2019, with or without a deal. There will be no Second Referendum.

I see that other airlines are doing similar things - Easyjet becoming an EU based company and potential withdrawing of voting rights for non-EU based shareholders of Ryanair, making it an EU based company by default.
