If you're 'resident' during the time you're absent the country, there's no way this cut-off will apply to you. While they haven't formulated it yet, it's pretty clear this applies to people who try to become residents after the cut-off date, not people who happen to land in the country afterwards. Politics may be a bit screwy right now, but it's not insane, at least not yet in the UK, as much as people like to hyperbolise. If you're currently living here, going abroad for a few weeks will be vanishingly unlikely to suddenly define you as no longer live here.

"Politics may be a bit screwy right now, but it's not insane," Oh yes it is. We have a nasty, dishonest and utterly incompetent government with free reign to do irreparable damage to this country, no thanks to our non-functioning and useless opposition party. Meanwhile, our national press, who have never been anything other than dishonest and self-serving are in full frothing-at-the-mouth hysteria mode when it comes to Brexit. I can't recall in recent memory a time in the UK when politics has been so dysfunctional and depressing as now.
