You know how the Leave campaign said that we shouldn't be forced to live under horrible EU laws, and we should 'take control of our own destiny' and live under UK laws, here's an example of  one of those horrible EU laws in action.  My  youngest daughter and her boyfriend paid £760 each to go on an all-inclusive holiday to Mexico in June.  They loved every minute, but on the last day their incoming flight was forced to turn back to Manchester causing a six hour delay for their return.  The hotel they were in allowed them to keep their all-inclusive wristbands for an extra six hours, so basically they got an extended holiday.  When they got home I told her to look into claiming delay compensation even though they didn't really suffer.  This morning she got a letter telling her that under EU laws they were entitled to 600 euros (£540) each in compensation.  She has just finished her first year at uni training to be a nurse (£9,000 per annum course fees under the Tories), so the money is very welcome.  If we had left on 29th March as planned, they probably wouldn't have got a penny!
