BREXIT: Parliament can't stop "no deal" - Matt Hancock

[NotAllThere]

The reality is, we really don't know, because we don't have a written constitution. My gut instinct, as much as it pains me, is that it won't work.

The Parliament can’t stop no deal Brexit because whilst being in EU it’s not a Sovereign Parliament, which is the reason why Brexit is needed to take back control!

I don't support brexit and I support the option of a no-deal even less, but if this gives us another chance to be free from the english tyranny....I'd be okay with that

Oh the tyranny of us subsidising you....

I'm happy to stop that, so tell me why the Scots weren't when they had the vote?

Can it be prevented? Probably not, according to that article, if the gov't is absolutely committed. Preventing it relies on the PM respecting conventions that he has vowed not to respect (in the same way remainers haven't in Parliament, one could argue).

I reckon once the UK is free of Scotland the NHS will only cost about 10p a year....

What will the NHS do with the extra £18,199,999,999.90?

Brexiteers are slowly giving up on parliamentary democracy to get their way.

It won't work, crashing out accidentally will just trigger an election which will be incredibly hard to win with all the chaos going on.
