Irish Deafness

The Irish airline, Ryanair is delisting from the London Stock Exchange, apparently so that EU shareholders will control voting in the company. This will be a requirement under Brexit (https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/nov/01/ryanair-profit-cut-winter-ticket-prices-loss-covid). The 'no frills' company has been 'full to the gills' with UK passengers, since that country relaxed its controls on foreign travel. In spite of Cop26, Ryanair intends to carry 225 million passengers a year by 2026. It's to be hoped that any emissions related to UK passengers will be correctly credited to that country rather than Ireland/the EU.
