    As our only conduit to the other side @PleaseNotPoll will have to extract Pete's views on the ruling.

    The Commons will probably be forced to pass it on a political basis.

    The Lords won't give a **** and it's heavily Labour weighted. The Tories will now set about trying to do a Lloyd George <laugh>

    Faisal Islam's live reporting of the ruling on Sky News was hilarious. He was almost fist pumping.

    Kustard would have assumed he was watching Al Jazeera.

    It's just like a football game, Millers FC v May FC.

    Like UTD v Liverpool

    Millers are winning 6-0

    Farage has already started trying to talk up civil unrest the hideous snake

    "I now fear that every attempt will be made to block or delay the triggering of Article 50. If this is so, they have no idea of the level of public anger they will provoke."

    Wasn't a marginal ruling. The courts completely dismissed the governmnent's case.

    ”The court does not accept the argument put forward by the government. There is nothing in the 1972 European Communities Act to support it. In the judgment of the court the argument is contrary both to the language used by parliament in the 1972 act, and to the fundamental principles of the sovereignty of parliament and the absence of any entitlement on the part of the crown to change domestic law by the exercise of its prerogative powers.”

    Typical Farage. He tries to portray the use of the law of the land as an attempt to overturn his and his followers bigotry.

    Like Trump, he's a rabble rousing scumbag. Playing on the minds and fears of the feeble minded!...

    If I saw him crossing the street, I'd put my foot down!...

    If the government had gone about it properly to start with then there would've been no need for a court case. Their attempts to use the referendum as an excuse to ignore the very UK law people voted for more of is laughable.

    Indeed mate.

    The bigots will be screaming about democracy, whilst ignoring the fact that the ruling is ensuring that our democracy is upheld.

    I just saw Charlie Mullins on TV outside the High Court.
    I asked my wife how old he was. She said 40s. He was born in 1954 so will be 61 or 62!
    He looks younger than me.

    Pete is conspicuous in his absence. Ula is doing a jig as she prepares lunch.
