By upholding a democratic mandate of the British People? I somehow don't think so The British People just want Brexit to happen so the country can move on

Gina Miller - 'I have already instructed my legal team to take whatever steps necessary to ensure that a prime minister doesn't attempt to put themselves above the law, and that we would seek some judicial review and clarity. 'That is already in motion and we would be ready.'

That 'Senior Tory' of all people being Malcolm Rifkind (forget the 'sir' bit) - remind me again why he stepped down? - What an ar5e of a choice to throw in his ha'penny's worth! Gina Miller has far more credibility

Could.... Might....Maybe..... Hysterical nonsense

And you know what happened to his head

He’d welcome that notoriety, unfortunately.

The LIBLABCON is just One BIG WESTMINSTER Con! Please... Vote The BREXIT PARTY brexitparty_uk for DEMOCRACY & FREEDOM! Thank You!

This would put him in a position where he would have claimed that Teresa May should resign. It is transparent that his overall ambition was power, supported by his stupid father

Will he be beheaded ? 😜

Remainers hatch plot calling on Queen to sack Boris Johnson if he defies vote of confidenceRemainers are plotting to drag the Queen into a political crisis by demanding that she sack Boris Johnson if he refuses to step down in the event he loses a confidence vote in Parliament. Unconstitutional, and she’ll never be drawn into their trap. I'm sure The Queens priority will be keeping The Union together at all cost. General Election is the way 4ward. ‘Remainers hatch plot’! It’s Johnson who is hatching one of the biggest plots in UK history if he defies a vote of no confidence by Parliament. It will be the Queen’s constitutional duty to ask Johnson to resign if he loses a vote of confidence.
