No, I'm not scaremongering. I've outline the challenges that the UK WILL experience as they move from a fully liberalised aviation market to a more traditional one - something Switzeland has with the EU.

If the UK does not wish to be in the free movement of people then, at best, they will get a liberalised, but not fully liberalised air service agreement with the EU. 1st to 5ths, at most. Switzerland, which has free movement, has just that. No 7ths, 8ths or 9ths. This means Easy and Ryanair are ****ed. They have few options, and even fewer if EU countries decide to play hardball.

Spain had already announced that Gibraltar is on the table. Elgin Marbles and Cypriot Soverign bases will soon join them.

But please, let's leave the politics to JB. It has happened and nothing is going to change that. It's time to face the consequences.
