I have a European licence, and a UK licence. But if I got offered a job tomorrow in France, Spain or anywhere, am I eligible? No. I have no legal right to live and work in Europe anymore.
EASA and licensing is not the issue here.
Whilst you may be right, some of those affected are dual citizens or even EU citizens in fact. I know of at least 10 pilots who are now stuck with a UK licence and an EU passport. So, in some ways, yes licensing is an issue.
Perhaps UK and EU driving licences should go down the same route because why not just go full daft.
