Parliament must vote on whether the UK can start the process of leaving the European Union, the High Court has ruled. This means the government cannot trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty – beginning formal discussions with the EU – on their own. Theresa May says the referendum – and existing ministerial powers – mean MPs do not need to vote, but campaigners called this unconstitutional. The government is expected to appeal. Ministers were given the go-ahead for a further hearing to take place at the Supreme Court, which is expected to take place before the end of the year.

The High Court has ruled the Government requires Parliament’s consent to trigger Article 50 and start the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union. However the court granted the government to appeal against the ruling, with a government lawyer saying the Supreme Court had already set aside December 5-8 to hear the matter.

Theresa May cannot trigger Brexit without putting it to an MPs’ vote in the House of Commons, the High Court has ruled. The Government has lost its case that she has power under the royal prerogative to trigger Article 50 – without putting it to MPs. Mrs May is now expected to appeal the decision and the Supreme Court has earmarked December 7 and 8 to hear the case. The case was brought by businesswoman Gina Miller and hairdresser Deir dos Santos, who are both British nationals. The key plank of the case was the actual wording of Article 50 of the treaty on the European Union.

Any judge that is pally with Blair or Brown should not be a judge, having proved himself to be lacking in good judgement, integrity and honesty.
As far as I’m concerned Rees-Evans can walk out and keep walking back to whichever of his 3 homes he likes best.
He is the most unconvincing leadership candidate I’ve ever seen and hasn’t a hope of garnering more than a few votes. To think that Peter Whittle, a capable man, has bowed out and JR-E remains is grotesque.
I knew this stich up was coming. All the more shocking that so many people ran to the Conservatives as soon as the leave vote came in, thinking the job was done. These people will stop at nothing to prevent us leaving. This requires a major national push back. UKIP needs to get its house in order and fast!
Not to mention the vanity of wanting to become a Lord … =/
Brexit is shining a light on the “enemies of the people”. Let them be exposed because they are only damaging themselves and their pathetic position.
The Telegraph hasn’t even run this story yet, unbelievable.
I another rant about this treachery, but word fail me.I suppose there will be plenty of time.
You might be interested in this information which has just been sent to me personally via e-mail:
“This woman is a George Soros sock puppet I am sure.
The True and Fair Foundation run by Gina Miller has a trusteeship, see below.
That trusteeship is with the “Philanthropy impact”, it says “Inspiring philanthropy and social investment across borders, sectors and causes”, guess who runs “Philanthropy impact”, yep you got it.
George Soros
True and Fair Ms Miller.
This clearly shows the connection to Philanthropy impact.

Philanthropy impact – run by George Soros.”
Interesting …
Movements like that of Soros don’t translate to the next generation. All people are after is the money.
The High Court judges have kow-towed to the EU for years so perhaps no surprise.
We would always have had to deal with (remove) them at some point; now we have confirmation of that need. We need our Cromwell to step forward and remind them who they serve.
We need 17.4 million new UKIP members that would settle any treachery issues.
I am a UKIP supporter, recently a member, waiting for the result of the leadership election before rejoining. I resigned as a protest against the NEC and the Carswell Hamilton Evans cabal. UKIP will not survive unless and until these career politicians are shown the door.
Dee Brown,
Can you please expand on the Carswell, Hamilton, Evans cabal? With provable facts that is.
Democracy via the courts. 1642 anyone?
Looks like it’s time for that again, doesn’t it!
It certainly makes me look with favour on beheadings of traitors on Tower Green.
Yes, ‘the GOVERNMENT will implement – NOT ‘Parliament’.
These people are hateful and loathsome in their efforts to overturn democracy and the High Court is their willing stooge.
Foul treason from ‘British nationals’. Deir de Santos doesn’t sound British to me and I’m willing to bet that neither is British in birth, heritage, culture, spirit or loyalty.
Some people are playing a very dangerous game with our belief in democracy; they are wreckers and deserve to be wrecked on the rocks of their own hubris.
Now is the time for Theresa May to show true grit and determination in imposing the will of the people on the traitors. Let us hope that she is bold and cunning enough to smash them down.
COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTIONS NEXT MAY
Perhaps these should be used to stand on the platform of democracy and government of the people by the people for the people.
UKIP candidates in strong Vote Leave areas eg Boston, Doncaster, Blackpool and dozens more need to stand on this one issue – send a message to Westminster that BREXIT – BREXIT and ,,,
