Almost seriously - anything stopping us restarting the countdown by revoking (which we don't need permission for) and then invoking fresh. Apart from it being colossally shambolic of course.
The ECJ made a ruling last year on whether the UK can unilaterally revoke or extend A50.
It rules that we need EU approval to extend but can revoke unilaterally. BUT, the revocation could not be with a view to reinvoke (soon?) thereafter.
So no, it would be illegal.
