Re: The Prorogation Court Case
Did we expect anything else?Confirmation that our country is run by wealthy lawyers and an unelected judiciary
This country used to be a shining light of democracy, but since The EU Referendum the Establishment had reduced that to a faint glimmer
Now they have snuffed it out
Any slight trust or respect for our lords & masters has gone, and Britain will never be the same again

Not that I believe the majority vote of leave to be right vote in the case of Brexit. Years ago heads would have rolled - and that would not be very democratic would it
Let me rephrase things -
Any semblance of democracy that we had, has now gone

Re: The Prorogation Court Case
At the moment we cannot leave with a deal (we continue the same parliamentary session and cannot bring back the withdrawal agreement unless its significantly changed) and we cannot leave without a deal because of the benn bill.Option 1 : overtime the benn bill in the court
Option 2 : EU do not grant an extension
Or we never leave

I'll go with option 2 but clearly the EU masters won't willingly just let us leave so they very much WILL grant any extension needed.
However. it requires the consent of all other member states to grant such an extension and each member state gets a veto.
Step up Hungary
A disgruntled member state.
They could help Boris by vetoing any further extension thus ensuring the UK drops out with No Deal on 31st Oct.
