What if in December it gets overturned with a final Yes given to May in January?
In appeal? It's a possibility. If so, legal procedure has been followed. At least something has been done to temper the ridiculous knee jerk decision that was made by leavers following a wave of misplaced nationalism stoked up by a millionaire, ex city banker, EU member of parliament and recipient of 200,000k annually of British tax payers money for not turning up to the European Parliament to fight our corner.
Pantomine?
Sorry? What is your question?

you have presented redundant evidence by inferior minds
whose opinion is more important the minds you have put forward or a high court judge.....which one takes priority?
its a very easy question yet you seem reluctant to answer

Knee jerk ?? Is that on your "must use" cliche list ? A lot of people have wanted to leave for a long time, the lead up to the referendum was long enough for the vote to have been anything but "knee jerk"

Mr Farage claimed that being able to deny entry to EU citizens would open the door for more immigration from the rest of the World and in particular, the Commonwealth, you know Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh etc. Not a problem for me, but if you hoped you will be seeing less Muslims migrating here, you are going to be disappointed.

It's about control,we would not have freedom of movement with the rest of the world would we,immigration will never end,it always has and always will be..
You've not said though. If you can present us with solid evidence that A50 cannot be reversed I would genuinely be interested to read it as all other opinion/ analysis suggests it is very much reversible.

Respectfully accepted-
Again we agree to disagree- i said he did turn up,which would mean not always,however he did (always) fight our corner..

Funny then that immediately after the result, leading Leave campaigners were quick to announce that it did not necessarily mean an end to free movement of labour, or leaving the single market, or that we would not be adopting any EU legislation.

For you it was about control, others (daft as it may be) truly believed, possibly because Farage had a poster with Syrian refugees lined up on it and the words "breaking point", that we would somehow not be under any obligation to accept refugees, and would adopt a racist immigration policy. Those people will be, I am glad to say, disappointed.

To paint a rather fuller picture:
In 1992, the UK opted out of Monetary Union along with the Social Chapter
In 1997, the UK opted out of abolition of border controls
In 2009, the UK opted out of the Charter of Fundamental Human Rights
In 2017, the UK opted out of adoption of common police and criminal justice legislation.
Add to the mix all EU legislation must be debated in the house and enshrined in UK law through act of Parliament then it appears there is every likelihood the trend of achieving significant concessions would continue.
Hardly the binary death march you predict and very much in line with the highly lauded democratic accountability.

im not astonishing anyone, but it is a superior opinion to you.
its common knowledge and open to public viewing......im surprised you are clueless to it, many political commentators have been talking about it.
last week there was a judicial decision about brexit, i notice you have been very vocal in supporting it.
The 32 page judgement investigated what article 50 meant with regard to its judgement and it concluded you cannot withdraw it(article 50) after giving notice and it means inevitable leaving.the EU, the judges based their outcome on this.
here is the relevant part
(1) a notice under Article 50(2) cannot be withdrawn, once it is given
11. Once a notice is given, it will inevitably result in the complete withdrawal of The United Kingdom from membership of the European Union
here is the full judgement

feel free of course to say the three judges are talking out of their arse and their judgement is flawed
