An anti-Brexit passenger confronted Tory politician Michael Gove over his “lies” at a Greek airport after she suffered a 30-hour delay. Candida Jones, a former Labour councillor who works for a Labour peer, said months of chaos for UK holidaymakers was “compounded” by Brexit.
The 50-year-old challenged the “tanned” sacked Cabinet Brexiteer for 15 minutes in the bag drop queue at Athens International Airport on Sunday night. Ms Jones, from South London, had been due to return to Gatwick on Saturday - but Easyjet postponed her flight until 10.35pm on Sunday due to disruption at airports.
It’s thought Mr Gove, who was travelling alone after his divorce, was not on the same plane or stuck in the same delay. Ms Jones claimed Mr Gove, who she described as “polite but very passive-aggressive”, insisted the delays were not caused by Brexit.
