Highcourt Ruling on Brexit
 

Parliament have to vote

Interesting. So they can either vote for leaving, better in the short run, no riots or mistrust. Or they can vote for whats better in the long run, staying in and rebalancing the value of the pound. I wouldnt want to have their power right now, theyre either gonna piss off 52% of adults or all future generations of Brits.

Is there a date?

I'm interested to see how this will turn out.

I doubt the majority of them will want to piss off the 52% that voted to leave, fair and square. The consequences would be nasty and generate an even far worse state of Great Britain than we already have.

a supreme court tea

Crikey didn't expect that

They will definitely vote in favour of it by a huge majority though, maybe the SNP will vote against and some MPs will abstain

I they reverse the vote they will never be trusted again to carry out the democratic intentions of their electorate.

lol the pound is such a mess of avarice

No it looks like there will be an appeal to the Supreme Court

Good. Anything that halts this ridiculous decision can only be a good thing.

So...a referendum was pointless? Surely this should have been checked beforehand?

For what its worth I do think they will go along with the vote though. But this is a bit silly

They don't want to block it, surprised so many still confused by this.

'We will scrutinise. We will examine. But my Lords – we will not block. But neither will we be bullied into abdicating our responsibilities.

We have to be adult about this. We can’t have the most enthusiastic Brexiters crying foul every time Parliament asks for more details or seeks to scrutinise.

This can’t be the only issue on which the Government is allowed a blank cheque without any accountability. It’s complex, it’s difficult. And the Government should see this House as an asset and not try to avoid helpful scrutiny.'

NI need to appeal their decision now, surprised they rushed through their ruling, if they had waited to see what ours was?...

if brexit doesnt go through then this country is not a democracy.

It's nothing to worry about.All the government has to do is ask parliament a binary question:To trigger article 50 or not
Only the SNP will dare vote against it.It'll still get triggered.

so basically the voters dont have a voice

I'm getting my conspiracy head on now and I have now decided Cameron stepped down as he found out this and didn't want to deal with it :laugh:

Living for the fumes if Brexit gets overturned tbh.

It will not be overturned. The people have spoken in a fair and democratic election. Politicians have to reflect that.

his legacy gets worse and worse

The people have spoken, the house of commons works for the people, therefore the house of commons isn't neccessary in this instance. Let's hope the appeal sorts it out. If they don't and it goes through, it's going to be fun next time Scotland has a referendum. :shrug:

I think you are right, but not over this. I think he realised it was going to be difficult, didn't have a plan and ran for the hills.

So much for democracy

This is democracy....The govt making all the decisions on brexit is autocracy.
