Brexit out

[Yesterday Once More]

If the Government lose the appeal to the Supreme Court, then Theresa May should call an immediate General Election and commit the Conservatives to implement the will of the British people if re-elected.

They will get a thumping majority, especially given that Labour remain unelectable.

UKIP candidates should not stand against any sitting MPs who commit to voting for Brexit in parliament. They should stand in seats held by any Labour, Lib Dems or Tory remainers like Ken Clarke who won't sign up to standing by Brexit.

Thank f*ck for that

Thank f*ck for that

As to B's point below, it only, in all likelihood, reinforces that Brexit will actually happen

[Alberto Balsam Rodriguez]

I have no doubt that we will leave. At least there is more hope that it will be done in the open.

[Burney]

Thank f*ck for that

I wouldn't get too excited if I were you, Euro-boy. We're still leaving.

Govt appeals, lawyers get lots of money, Govt loses appeal, goes to parliament where they all talk for as long as possible before it eventually gets voted through.. if it gets delayed enough it could be towards the end of next year due to french and german elections.

Problem is nobody knows what form this will taks "soft" or "hard" Brexit.

Isn't that the more likely scenario - MPs will try to influence the Government as to what line it should take in post Art 50 negotiations. As all have correctly pointed out it will be difficult for an MP not to vote the way his or her constituency voted but there is a world of difference between taking a hard position and a soft one. That particular distinction was never put to the electorate.

Or the Queen gives the ok, and then that is that. It's well known that the Royals hate the EU and everything it stands for.

That may be so but at least it will have to go through due process. After all, that is what they were elected for.

The alternative would be a Heil Theresa scenario
