Government lose Brexit case

[Eric Cartman]

If we had voted Leave - then Farrage (or anyone else) would have no legal avenues open to them to appeal the decision in law. This decision was only about process.

I agree though - a remain decision would have kept Farrage in a job for life in Brussels. I think he would have walked away though rather than carry on the campaign, especially in light of what happen in the US.

All Cameron had to was to put in a line in the motion passed by Parliament to allow us a vote that said Article 50 should be triggered within x months and that the result would not need parliament approval - but Cameron was convinced it was a no brainer he'd win - oopsie.

Every government failure seems to get pinned on Cameron now.

Every government failure seems to get pinned on Cameron now.

Hindsight. Don't remember anyone asking for this kind of thing back when the referendum was going through Parliament.
