I agree with them and you too.

What astounds me is that any govt; not just this one, would actually want to proceed with leaving and triggering article 50, without a vote and hopeful support from MPs of all parties across the house of commons.

I really cannot see how that can be argued against legally and hopefully the Supreme court will not overturn the judgement made earlier this week.

Better to have the legalities out the way now.
Working together with all parties and MPs would have been a far better and likely smoother route to go down by the Govt.
In my view anyway.

No one - including Brexit supporters - should be clamouring for this or any other government to start picking and choosing when they would like to follow the letter of the law. It's an utterly ludicrous road to want to go down, in the name of "getting something you want" a little bit faster. Utterly insane.
