Complete Brexit must not be thwarted

Commenting on today’s court ruling on Brexit Jim Allister said:

“Whatever of the court’s motivation it is clear those who took this case saw it as a vehicle to thwart the will of the people so clearly expressed in the referendum. In that they must not succeed. I, therefore, welcome the Government’s indication that it will appeal this ruling.

“Remoaners should accept that this was a legitimate result which should be accepted by all democrats. What signal does this attempt to subvert the people’s decision send to the rest of the world, where the UK argues for free and fair elections?

“Parliament has already had its say on the matter when it passed an Act empowering the people by making provision for the referendum.

“Those anti-democratic forces in the UK who attempt to suggest that they are standing up for Parliament would do well to remember that fact. And so should the courts.”
