It gives irrevocable 2 years notice that all EU treaties are to be revoked subject to any further agreement.

cyderspaceman Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 A decision reached by British judges in a British court using British law. I'd have thought the Brexiteers would be pleased. I hope Gina Miller is taking adequate security precautions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 11 hours ago, ayrmad said: That's just such a ridiculous headline, do the Daily Mail want judges to ignore the law when they're making decisions. That's a very important point; in fact that is THE important point. It's easy just to make fun of the Daily Heil but what they are clearly proposing with that headline is that judges should take decisions based upon political factors rather than their interpretation of the law. That is a pretty dangerous position to be advocating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a position that some folk will advocate so long as they agree with the political view that is being supported. If you asked people the question "Should judges base their decisions on (a) political factors or (b) their interpretation of the law?" you would get near universal support for (b) IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colkitto Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 It's not just the English newspapers and their media at large, these racist right wing views are now ingrained in the English mentality. This isn't going to change anytime soon. In fact I can only see it getting worse! Scotland, we need out now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
