Man told to remove his 'bollocks to Brexit' hat before his FlyBe flight | Latest Brexit news and top stories

A man was told to remove a woolly hat with 'bollocks to Brexit' on it before he could take his seat on a flight because another passenger reportedly found it offensive. IT consultant Derek Knowles was boarding FlyBe's flight BE664 from Knock, in west Ireland, when a flight attendant said he would not be allowed to sit down while he had his hat on. 'She just took exception to it,' said Derek. 'She was polite but firm, saying it might be offensive to other people and I'm not allowed to wear it on the plane.' The airline has since said that a passenger had complained about the hat, and even followed up by writing to FlyBe's CEO about it later.
