My god we seem to have entered an era of politics of willful ignorance, I wonder why though all the pro-Brexit people want to do it behind closed doors, using the royal prerogative to slide it past Parliament. Which is about as undemocratic as they come, practically feudal in fact. It seems to that lot democracy is something to be picked up and dropped when it suits them.
The Tory rags should be hanging their heads in shame, frightening how they went after those judges for, well judging, applying the law of the land, a law passed by an act of parliament. A parliament elected by the people. Yet they defy the 'will of the people'? What pathetic rhetoric, and recent polls indicate that it's not the will of the people, it's actually the will of less than half of the people. These are frightening dog whistles for the extreme right, we've already seen an MP murdered, what next, these judges? The 'foreign-born' millionaire that brought the case to law?
These are frightening times, this is going to get worse, and uglier.
