My question would be is why are the establishment suddenly the champions of procedure and legal process, especially when legislation that goes against their own self-interest and/or ideology is often side-lined or ignored?
It was clear to the ordinary person what the referendum was about, and a truly democratic government should ensure that the people get what they thought they were paying for; rather than being bombarded with small print and legal ambiguities.
There is an alternative course of action, which does not involve the triggering of Article 50, according to Professor Ingrid de Frankopan.
