The second, #A50Challenge, is that an express, legally effective decision is required to legally start the process, which has not yet been made.

#A50Challenge relies on existing UK law which was the basis for the decision in Miller. The solution lies in the hands of UK Courts under UK law.

Please support #A50Challenge. It is, we regret to say, the only way to resist Brexit which keeps matters in the UK’s own hands.
And just as crucially, it will forestall similar attempts to abuse our Constitution in future. END
