I'm a little confused. GIP, the US-based investment company which currently owns Gatwick sold 50.1% of it to a French-based global airports company which owns 40+ other airports around the world, and doubled their money by doing so. What's this got to do with Brexit?

Nothing wrong with being confused but nobody said it had anything to do with Brexit really, rather that it was done in spite of Brexit!
