Although if the Supreme Court hearing next month is unsuccessful, the government could still ask the CJEU to provide a view on the legality of the UK constitution

<ROFL> I thought brexit was to stay away from CJEU so they cannot have a say in our affairs.

Assuming the UK remains in the customs union – which the government have “assured” Nissan we will, the UK will remain under the jurisdiction of the CJEU.

The purpose of a court is to provide lawful unprejudiced decision.

Sections of the media have condemned, and demonised the three High Court judges for doing nothing more than their job. Pathetic.

Don't really care about Britain to be honest since I live in a country that will keep doing well regardless of what these isle folk do.

Why should MPs get to vote on Brexit when a majority of the electorate voted for Brexit. A clear mandate from the people of the UK to leave. MPs as representatives of the electorate should abide by the wishes of them
Get us out !!

Where we all going?


Honestly this nonsense from the Brexiters. There may have been 17 million that voted out, but that is a only a little over 25 per cent of the British Population, don`t the other 75 per cent get a say in anything for evermore now.

The Brexiters and their Media chums are beginning to sound like playground bullies now with their demands for all things Brexit.

The media today shamefully said that the three judges, just doing their job, were the enemy of the country. FFS talk about Facism returning.

Parliament will ensure the process has accountability, transparency, and will also protect the economic interests of the UK.

The government wanted to invoke Art50 without giving any detail to Parliament, nor the entire country.

I understand 11 Supreme Court judges will oversee the appeal. Given there is no prior legal precedent to invoke the Royal prerogative, (relating to matters of national interest) it’s inconceivable the decision will be overturned.

What, I suspect the Government are most unhappy about, is the process will be subject to public, (via Parliament) scrutiny. When the general public discover how little leverage the UK have, and find out the cost of EU severance, the Government’s popularity will significantly diminish.

Which IMO is why they have been fighting this in the first place.

This.

"Take back control. Take back democracy. Take back rule." Except when we want an unelected leader making decisions that will dramatically affect the UK for many years - without consulting Parliament - the people we elect to make decisions for us.

This is not an attempt to change the referendum result - and those portraying it as such do not understand the case or are dishonest (£350 million pwk for NHS?)

Brexit voting was daft anyway.

16-18 year olds unable to vote, and people over 75 were able to vote and they'll be dead before any of this makes a difference!

If anyone can, Emre Can



Although I still feel the decision (as much as I disagree with it) should be respected.

However if it transpires that following negotiations with the EUC, the deal was not in the UK’s economic interests to pursue, IMO there at least should be the option of pulling out. I’m unsure however if there is statute in Art50 which would grant this.
