whatever you think of brexit and theresa may's government, giving themselves only 55 minutes to reach the decision to lodge the appeal shows shocking, staggeringly shocking, decision making.

Seems unlikely as the ruling is based on the premise that parliament can only unmake legislation

At what point would brexit voters want to see proper scrutiny? It really does seem to have gone over their heads just what was said by Nissan in realtion to what would make them stay and then ......they stay. If, during the negs, it soon becomes apparent that they get a very watered down brexit would they want parliament to have scrutiny then?

the parliamentary debate would only be to trigger
article 50 and not the terms of negotiations

but government must oppose this or risk the backlash
if vote is against triggering art 50

when johnny comes marching home again
he's coming by bus or underground
a woman's eye will shed a tear
to see his face so beaten in fear
an' it was just around the corner in the english civil war

it was still at the stage of clubs and fists
when that well-known face got beaten to bits
your face was blue in the light of the screen
as we watched the speech of an animal scream
the new party army was marching right over our heads

alright

there you are, ha ha, i told you so
says everybody that we know
but who hid a radio under the stairs
an' who got caught out on their unawares?
when that new party army came marching right up the stairs

when johnny comes marching home again
nobody understands it can happen again
the sun is shining an' the kids are shouting loud
but you gotta know it's shining through a crack in the cloud
and the shadows keep falling when johnny comes marching home

With Hard Brexit off the agenda, we are looking at:

- single market access
- some sort of continued EU payments
- some sort of fudge on EU migration

what was the point of it all?

The democratic will of the people is represented by the MPs.  The situation we are in is that the moment Art. 50 is triggered a clock counts down to remove the rights of British citizens.  It is clear that many British citizens wish to retain at least some of these rights.  The only way to preserve those rights is for parliament to pass red line legislation insisting on the limits of brexit (however impractical that might be)
