    Indeed:

    The long held view that the Tory party is good at managing
    the economy is a myth.

    Time for something new that will really keep manufacturing jobs
    and valuable British owned companies in this country .

    Germany and France are doing it. Why can't we?

    Tory Brexit mad economics =
    sell off British owned valuable companies to foreigners
    and then use British taxpayer subsidies to keep them here
    and therefore reducing the tax they pay.

    Rolls-Royce, Mini, Jaguar Land Rover......
    (all famous around the world for being "British")

    Yep owned by the Germans(BMW) and Indians(Tata motors).

    The Indians came in and completely transformed Jaguar Land Rover
    and I bet our stupid Tory Brexit government will be running around
    with a blank cheque begging them to stay.

    Only recently they allowed ARM Holdings, a valuable British owned
    company which holds the intellectual properties of most microcontrollers
    running our gadgets around the world to be sold.
    (A strategic blunder in my view as China will never allow it).

    Sadiq Khan, you naive fool

    Yes, the country voted for Brexit. And of course, that means we’ll be leaving the European Union.
    Finally got it, have we. Clever boy!

    But that doesn’t mean unnecessary economic self-sabotage.
    It kind of does, Sadiq.

    The government doesn’t have a mandate to jeopardise our economy or the prosperity of millions of people in London and across the country.
    Yes it does - that's democracy. Suck it up!

    1 out of 3. Must try harder. See me afterwards.

    Stick to the day job of talking the economy up.

    Nissan assurances must mean the UK will stay in the customs unions

    interesting, the Germans would also be wanting that I would have thought and Australia have rejected negotiations.

    Is Liam Fox redundant ?

    You have nothing more than a lay (and probably incorrect) understanding of the legal arguments. You're spouting on the t'interweb, along with the rest of us.

    That being said.

    I suspect that you don't fully understand the argument you're making here. In essence, you're arguing that "statute beats prerogative". In the case of A50, this is accurate, but irrelevant. What, precisely, is the relevant conflict between the two? What Act of Parliament is inevitably displaced by the triggering of A50? What is the legal argument to suggest that a risk would be sufficient?
    Weeeeeee!
