If you want to apply for Ryanair get both, as they will require you to transfer license to Ireland which is EASA anyway for DAC operations, you'll also get a bonus for holding dual licenses. If you're not thinking about RYR at all then save the hasle of doing the exams twice.... alternately maybe a new Labour government will mend some bridges and the CAA will rejoin EASA or at least stop being such silly arses about recognising what is essentially an equivalent qualification.
