French Owned Euro Tunnel has renamed it, its now called Brexlink....         no actually, the new name is Getlink, close, but the French never did have a sense of humor.

The other way round seems more likely, but only for British passport holders of course.  ::)  Everyone else will be able to come and go as they please and have their rights guaranteed by the ECJ, ICJ, US Supreme Court, Chinese Supreme Peoples Court etc etc   :P

More efficient for the shareholders to rebrand (as a new company having first bankrupted the old one) than cough up :-X
