Quite easy right too.

And they will vote to trigger article 50, which will also be quite right.

Why would they even want to? The courts have ruled that the Jocks, Welsh and Northern Irish governments can't put a spoke in the wheels and MP's have already voted by 461 to 89 in favour of triggering Article 50 by the end of March.

Chairman May ha already said they will get to vote on the final deal anyway. All part of the plan, friends.

That's how I have always read it. I don't believe the government will lose the vote but if they did it would trigger a general election which would return May a much bigger majority than she has now.

They wouldn't. Although why did May take it to the Supreme Court? Equally pointless and just delays things (conveniently?).

Nah, it's just due process. People voted to let Westminster be the arbiter in these matters. We will still leave. Which is fine.

I'm looking forward to the foaming at the mouth brigade trying to make sense of it though.

The courts aren't completely ignoring the will of the people. They are going through the due legal process that this democratic country prides it'self on.

Now if MP's vote against triggering Article 50 then they will be completely ignoring the will of the people.

But again, I'd rather live in a country that has these checks and balances.

I agree the Dictator has spoken however, the fact that an individual (2) challenged the Dictator could - IF we are lucky mean that we have an opportunity to return to a democracy one day.

I think mps in Scotland, norn Ireland and London could reasonably vote to reflect the wishes of their constituents.

Will all be immaterial. The 52 have a much bigger parliamentary representation. When it comes to it, I'm sure it'll be a huge majority.

So, upside - we do live in a representative democracy after all

Downside - it's probably just going to make the Brexit process even more shambolic, but

Upside - Corbyn will be exposed as being at odds with the majority of his MPs and we may get a more effective leader of the opposition before the next General Election, but

Downside - the break up of the United Kingdom in the near future looks more likely

Interesting times, no?

Of course if the SNP now hold another vote on independence they will have the full support of Don, from the Ilse of Lewis - ?

Sorry if it came across that way, just on my phone and couldn't face trying to explain why I disagree with you.

It's not a subversion of democracy in any way at all, despite what some of the press will have you believe. However, the minute I heard the ruling I knew we would be inundated with brexiters bleating about 'the will of the people'.

You're very knowledgeable about lots of subjects but you're wrong on this.

It's just confirming the process of how Article 50 needs to be triggered. May wanted to be able to do it without deferring to a Parliament vote, but the courts have said she has to seek a majority vote in Parliament.

The end result will be the same I suspect, as it would be political suicide for MPs to vote against the will of their constituents (although some will no doubt, especially in Labour where their leadership issues are preoccupying them), so it' a bit of a waste of time. Nice little earner for the legal eagles though.

There may be some amandments which may be for the good.

I would be very unhappy if the situation was left totaly in the hands of the Cash & Redwoods et al to badger the Dictator to just bin everything - unless of course we could actually hold them to account outside the house

Also an important reminder to the government that they don't have the mandate to make this type of decision unilaterally.

Hopefully that seeps into their Brexit negotiations too so it becomes red, white and blue rather than just a blue Brexit.
