The vast majority were complacent and didn't bother voting, not believing it was ever actually going to happen. Without any shadow of a doubt another referendum today would yield a different result.
The majority of people that voted, voted to leave - with all associated consequences and despite clear warnings.
Whilst I am sorry for your personal situation, it is simply the truth - the UK voted to leave an economic pact, and now has to deal with that accordingly. And… as long as there are no domestic flights operated by ACMI operators, what should really be done?

ACMI operators have always been around - simply brexit and its consequences excluded British pilots from employment with them. But that is not the fault of the ACMI operators in the first place.

Purely the actions of your own government excludes you from employment with carriers in 27 states.
