That's fair enough, Nigel, but I am sure you can appreciate that arguing that "the whole affair cannot be put down to Brexit" risks be misunderstood as "Brexit is not involved in any way." Quite different things, I hope you agree. Yes, I fully agree that that form of wording could be misleading to those who do not read English carefully. Fortunately I didn't use that phrase. What I said was: My response about Monarch Airlines was a response to Mr Red's post of 2/10/17 04:51 which appeared to put the whole affair down to Brexit. As you'll see I was not attempting to identify the root (or any) cause. Just pointing out that Mr Red's comment appeared to read that Brexit was the sole cause of Monarch's failure.
