I knew the Gina Miller would be one you bought up :-D First 2 are about the same thing, the Gina Miller case which was "submitted that the government could not trigger Article 50 and begin the withdrawal process without first giving parliament a free vote on the issue". That was the case not to stop Brexit although she was hoping parliament would but that wasn't what the court case was about. ...

Almost three years ago Nigel Farage said that if the result of the referendum was 52/48 to Remain then the closeness of the result would be ‘unfinished business’ and that pressure for a second referendum would grow. I wonder if he and other likeminded souls still think that way ..... www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/nigel-farage-wants-second-referendum-7985017

Here are a just few I found instantly on Google.  Whilst some of these actions are cloaked as procedural challenges, the real reason for the action is abundantly clear; stop Brexit at all costs. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/782086/gina-miller-brexit-court-parliament-sovereignty https://www.law.ac.uk/blog/gina-miller-my-battle-against-brexit/ ...

Well this is the whole problem, people who can't accept the democratic will of the people. 3 years wasted by democracy deniers. I thought the Soviet Union was gone, but communism is still holding us back.

I'm only ever polite in my posts (as I am on all social media) and stick to facts (remember what those are?) even though the childish use of "Remoaners" constantly really gets on my nerves. Once you have to start with the ad hominem attacks then you have failed.

Remoaners have spent the last three years trying to overturn the democratic decision made to leave the EU, and yet they claim to be democratic.  Forum rules prevent me from saying exactly what I think about these people.

Surely the only MPs that didn't stand up for democracy are those that abstained. They should have voted how they believed their constituents would like them to vote.
