in case anyone scrolls back this far...
ECoC is open to: EU, EFTA and EEA members. Also countries applying for EU membership.
It became clear in the last few weeks that the UK still plans to leave the EU and not join EFTA/EEA. And anyway, if the UK did try to start joining EFTA/EEA today, it'd take over 5 years to become a member anyway.
The cities were stupid enough to spend hundreds of grand on something that they're ineligible for. If they'd already started the bidding process and not quite the moment that Art50 was enacted, then that's entirely their own stupid fault.
