Also lol Aaron? 2% of GDP. I don't think £350m a week is even 0.1% of the economy.

British GDP is like 2 trillion. £350m a week is £18.2bn a year. It is literally nothing, only mugs fell for that.
But it was combined with buzz words like will go to the NHS. You had to be a complete mug to buy into that though. |

there's going to be a lot of angry people whatever happens which is why this referendum will be forever stupid

But that's the problem, there were so many lies from both sides that the campaign didn't actually have that much effect on peoples voting - people tuned out. Many people had decided way before, people have been think about this issues for 30 years.

It is going to near impossible to unite the country. The only feasible way is if you get the pipe dream deal of free movement for us, not free movement for you. But leavers think that's the target, remainers realise that's never going to happen.

The claim: The next prime minister will not be allowed to invoke Article 50 - the mechanism for leaving the European Union - unless an act of Parliament authorises them to do so.
Reality Check verdict: It may turn out that an act of Parliament is needed before Article 50 may be triggered, but it is difficult to see how Parliament could in practice ignore the result of the referendum. |

A group of unnamed business people and academics represented by the law firm Mishcon de Reya has launched a legal challenge to require a future prime minister to get the approval of Parliament before triggering Article 50.
|

By:
The lawyers at Mishcon argue that triggering Article 50 would automatically, although not immediately, override the European Communities Act 1972, and that only Parliament can change its own legislation.
But some legal experts argue that the 1972 act would remain part of UK law until it is repealed by Parliament at the end of the process, rather than the beginning. Cabinet Office minister Oliver Letwin told the Commons foreign affairs committee on Tuesday that the government had been advised that the prime minister could trigger Article 50 without an Act of Parliament, but that Parliament would have to be involved with the changes to the European Communities Act. It is important to get it right, because Article 50 says a member state may decide to leave only "in accordance with its own constitutional requirements". During the campaign, Prime Minister David Cameron said he would go to Brussels immediately after the referendum to trigger Article 50, although he has since decided to resign. If he had gone straight away, it would have had to have been with the use of prerogative power, a collection of executive powers held by the Crown since medieval times and now placed in the hands of ministers. They are often used in foreign affairs that Parliament has largely left to the government. So, for example, the prime minister would not ask Parliament who to nominate to be head of the European Commission or whether to ask for a lower EU budget. |

Dr Thomas Horsley, an expert on EU law from Liverpool Law School, says the challenge to the prime minister's ability to trigger Article 50 without the prior approval of Parliament is "based on a particularly wide reading of a set of cases on limits to the exercise of prerogative powers".
But he adds: "It would be politically necessary with respect to Article 50 that when prerogative powers are used, Parliament is consulted - at the very least." Kasra Nouroozi, from Mishcon de Reya, says: "Everyone in Britain needs the government to apply the correct constitutional process and allow Parliament to fulfil its democratic duty, which is to take into account the results of the referendum along with other factors and make the ultimate decision." It is the suggestion that there are "other factors" to take into account that is tricky, because the majority of MPs were in favour of staying in the EU. |

aaron, the emotive arguments were quid-pro-quo - as in most political campaigns. The major difference was that the tone and sentiment were truly horrid.
|
|
By:
A Cabinet Office spokesman said: "As the prime minister said in the Commons, we have now got to look at all the detailed arrangements, and Parliament will clearly have a role in making sure that we find the best way forward."
So it sounds like there will be some involvement from Parliament. |

It has come as a shock to many that the referendum result itself is not legally binding in UK law and it alone does not trigger the UK's departure from the EU.

Mishcon de Reya's clients argue that under the UK constitution the decision to trigger Article 50 rests with Parliament.
The firm has been in correspondence with government officials to seek assurances over the process. |

Mishcon de Reya believed that any prime minister using executive powers to start the process would be acting unlawfully because they would be overriding the 1972 European Communities Act that enshrines UK membership of the EU.
The law firm says that constitutionally only legislation can override legislation and an act of Parliament is required to give the prime minister legal authority. The passage of such an act could in theory provide the majority of MPs who favoured Remain the chance to block the UK leaving, our correspondent said, but he added that this seemed "constitutionally inconceivable". |
|
By:
Kasra Nouroozi, a Mishcon de Reya partner, said: "We must ensure that the government follows the correct process to have legal certainty and protect the UK Constitution and the sovereignty of Parliament in these unprecedented circumstances.
"The result of the referendum is not in doubt, but we need a process that follows UK law to enact it. "The outcome of the referendum itself is not legally binding and for the current or future prime minister to invoke Article 50 without the approval of Parliament is unlawful. "We must make sure this is done properly for the benefit of all UK citizens. Article 50 simply cannot be invoked without a full debate and vote in Parliament." |

I understand if average joes don't bother with umlauts, but can't big online publications borrow some for their articles? Is that too much to ask for? Dussel = dimwit |

aaron; if I can just take the other side of the argument briefly, it is unfortunate that economists, and to a lesser degree, politicians see themselves as some sort of 'scientists'. This was a slam-dunk attack vector for the Brexiters, since these groups of people are constantly getting it wrong. People are fed up with others tell them they know best, hardly get it more right then the old fella drinking alone at the end of the bar.
