Nohing overcomplicated about it, and certainly necessary.
It's a question of fundamental constitutional importance. That requires detailed analysis and discussion. Hence we have the Court sitting en banc, and taking four days for submissions.

Right now it very much looks like it's a delay tactic by government......

There we go more insults ...ignorance and prejudice, bullies and bruisers. ..sigh
Needlessly? No.
This country has been frustrated by the EU for 20 years or so
Many of us wanted a referendum at Lisbon Treaty point but didn't get it.
The people of London do not represent the rest of the country

I agree, but I thought the "bunch of people over complicating matters" was referring to some of the posters on here!

I don't think he's been all that bad, and has done pretty well at responding to questions, but this in-depth examination of the De Keyser case seems to be going rather off-piste from the core question.

And that's fine. The end result will be the same.

Bothered enough to appeal the original decision but as I said earlier that's mainly to do with her being petrified of the reaction of the mad dogs at the Mail and Telegraph.

As I say ...over complicating

Nope, but their views are equal to everyone else's. Hence we have people correctly exercising their right to have their concerns addressed in court.

Parliament voted on allowing an advisory referendum. Parliament voted on taking into consideration, along with everything else, the outcome of the referendum. Available for you to read black on white on Hansard if you care to look for it.
We are governed by Parliament, not by the government and most certainly not by Mrs May and the three stooges.
You're right - it is very simple.

He is shocking. Every question throws him off. He made a mess of one of the few half-plausible arguments they have submitted.
I'm sorry, either the government has no one more capable or this is done on purpose.
A little background music would be good, it effectively ruins just about every other TV show especially documentaries.

Glad you agree that the government is overcomplicating things.

Isn't he supposed to use the term "Your Lordship" instead of "My Lord"? Edit: in reference to Neuberger.

Not that you knew what was in it - it was that moronic chant by Farage groupies, which got us into a mess, from which no-one seems top know the way out.
Still, easier to denounce judges - what do they know about law, after all?

I think he has got it right so far from what I heard.
My lord is used to directly address the judge, your lordship is used in place of "you" i.e. "Please see para 148 my lord, if your lordship would..."
Crikey can't they put all this stuff on a powerpoint or a tablet?

Not quite. I am trying to get my head around it rather than just waiting for the spurious outraged digest that will appear in the DM!
