Is there the remotest chance of U.K. fishermen being allowed to fish EU waters in this circumstance? It's worrying that Ireland should address its closest trading partner in such a belligerent and unreasonable way.
Belligerent? Ireland? The country most likely to be hit hard by the reckless action of its neighbour. I think rather they have been planning ahead in launching one (and building others) super sized (the largest) ferry to sail around the UK....they are actually doing something real, something that can be seen and touched.
After all not one single person in the UK government knows what actually will happen to UK aviation or anything else.
The airline business needs to plan ahead and time is becoming perilously short.
