    Another challenge ffs;

    A fresh legal challenge to Brexit has been blocked by the High Court.

    A group of campaigners who want Britain to stay in the EU single market argued that Parliament must approve the UK's exit from the European Economic Area.

    But the judges refused to give the green light for the challenge, saying they would give their reasons later.

    The Supreme Court ruled last month that Parliament must have its say before the government can trigger Article 50 and begin official talks on leaving the EU.

    Parliament is in the process of considering legislation which would give Theresa May the authority to notify the EU of the UK's intention to leave by the end of March.

    MPs overwhelmingly backed the bill on second reading on Wednesday.

    The latest legal challenge was brought by supporters of a so-called "soft Brexit" - which would see the UK remain a member of the EU's internal market.

    'Good news'
    They include Peter Wilding, chairman of the pro-Europe pressure group British Influence, and lobbyist Adrian Yalland.

    The government claimed the case, which was heard by Lord Justice Lloyd Jones and Mr Justice Lewis, was unarguable since the existing EEA agreement would automatically cease to exist once the UK left the EU.

    Under the terms of the EEA, which first came into legal force in 1994, the EU's 28 members and three other signatories are bound to accept the free movement of people, services, goods and capital across their borders.

    A government spokesman welcomed Friday's decision.

    "As the prime minister has said, we will not be a member of the single market and we will be seeking a broad new partnership with the EU including a bold and ambitious free trade agreement," a spokesman said.

    Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage said the ruling was "good news".

    I see Sturgeon's little attempt got savaged yesterday, it's all a lot of hot fuss if you ask me, May will have Article 50 in by March 31st, there's not a doubt in my mind.

    I also voted remain, but dislike the EU Bureaucracy as much as Farage. Nobody knows where it will end including May but she must not be allowed to have carte blanche on the negotiations and Parliament must have a say on the matter as well as the people. So far so good, but the crunch is yet to come.

    They've already decided that parliament will have a say on the matter, but what mustn't happen is stupid idiots like Corbyn being given too much leverage, he needs to accept the situation he is in and that he doesn't have an equal say in what happens. We'll never get anywhere with his stupid little vegan policies, so he should be gagged, tied up and shoved in a bunker for the next 2 years, preferably without food or water.

    May could well go down as one of the greatest if she is allowed to do her job properly and assemble a team that represents the best interests of the future of this country, not the present.

    I would never deny a fellow human being their right to vote for who they like most, but I'll always reserve my right to laugh at you.

    The word 'hopeless' springs to mind, in a comforting way.
