    One up on Chairman May Oopsy Brexity Tung

    Permission to Appeal (if asked for) to the Supreme Court will be within 21 days so at a guess of it being accepted, I would envisage that they fit the case in just before Christmas.. The nice thing about the Supreme Court is that it is televised.

        Supreme Court will rule against govt.

        Parliament will demand another referendum.

        Magically, remain will win by a comfortable margin.

        Govt will respect the will of the people and UK will remain in the EU until the end of time.

        It's Ireland all over again.

            No doubt the Brexiters will say the jump in GBP is due to Wetherspoons, Morrissy and the possible Columbia trade deal

              I think you are right.

                And even if the government lose, parliament will probably vote it through.

                  My humble prediction is that parliament will approve Article 50, with conditions for parliamentary oversight of the process. No bad thing.

                    It's often said that the public would bring back capital punishment in a vote, but the educated in parliament take a position against the will of the people because they know better. I can see the same rational being used for parliament to vote against triggering Article 50. A second referendum would coincide with the next recession and would vote for remain.
