Financially I haven’t. I don’t really have any money to move into other currencies/gold.

I have taken Irish citizenship though, it probably will never be very useful (other than for using EU customs queues at airports) but at least I have the option of fleeing abroad when Britain goes fully into The Road.

Could I get an EU passport through an italian relative? It would be from my Nan who passed away a few years ago so I'm not sure if that'll count, she moved to England when she was 18 and never renounced her Italian citizenship I don't think. The passport thing was something I planned to look in to more if Brexit really did go to gooseberry fool.
Different countries have different requirements for that sort of thing, some dont allow dual citizenship, some only allow children (rather than grandchildren) to become citizens, some require you to live in the country. Best to look into it yourself and see what you need to do, they should have some kind of citizens information site that outlines the qualifying criteria.

If you were born in any country where citizenship is acquired by birth you may be considered an Italian citizen" which is what Hyperion says, unfortunately my Nan was born before the war so it could get a bit more complicated for me.

It's all a bit more relaxed than the UK's years of forms, score 75% on a quiz about EastEnders and having to have a massive savings account.

My mum qualifies for Irish citizenship/passport through her grandmother - I’m wondering if she takes that up whether or not I could take a passport and use that to get backdoor EU citizenship...

No, you need your parent or grandparent to be an Irish citizen when you were born. It’s the reason I can’t make my son an Irish citizen, he was born before I applied.

If you wanted to make entire family have citizenship you could move here easily enough, after brexit it’ll be really hard. Not suggesting you would.

Or he could move to Northern Ireland and claim Republic citizenship after a few years.

Although as the UK seems happy to throw out the Good Friday Agreement who knows if that option will remain in a few years time.

Government lawyers have been given a two-week deadline to respond to the latest legal challenge over the legitimacy of the Brexit vote.

A judicial review has been launched by the UK in EU Challenge group, which represents Britons living in France, Italy and Spain.

It argues that the Electoral Commission’s findings on BeLeave and Vote Leave, which resulted in two officials being reported to the police and fines being imposed, mean the 2016 EU referendum was not a lawful, fair or free vote.

On Thursday, Mr Justice Warby issued a high court order requiring those representing Theresa May and the commission to submit a summary of their legal defence by 4pm on 31 August.

The order also asks the government to reply to the request for an expedited hearing “as soon as reasonably practicable”.
