The courts. They would stop it. 

Explain how please

"Parliamentary sovereignty is a principle of the UK constitution. It makes Parliament the supreme legal authority in the UK, which can create or end any law. Generally, the courts cannot overrule its legislation and no Parliament can pass laws that future Parliaments cannot change. Parliamentary sovereignty is the most important part of the UK constitution."

 

 

- examples of statutes overruled by courts (preferably within the last 50 years) would help.

Parliamentary sovereignty yes - so a law trying to get rid of parliament and create a dictatorship surely wouldn’t be allowed?  It would have to get through the Lords for a start.

I clearly said getting rid of opposition parties, not parliament.

 

And what's to stop the government  packing out the Lords with its cronies?

Such is the strength of the "constitution". Next thing they'll be ennobling camels and Monk Bretton Trots.

What a surprise. The government knows none of it's proposed alternatives to the backstop will work. Irish border after Brexit – all ideas are beset by issues says secret paper

All potential solutions to the post-Brexit Irish border are fraught with difficulty and would leave smaller businesses struggling to cope, experts have said, as leaked government papers outline major concerns just two months before Britain is due to leave the EU.

A report summarising the findings of the government’s official “alternative arrangements” working groups concluded that there are issues with all the scenarios put forward to try to replace the backstop arrangement. There are also specific concerns over whether any technological solution could be delivered to monitor cross-border trade.

There might be short term issues but I suspect they will soon be ironed out and forgotten about. I doubt this will be the beginning of a slide back into the dark ages. and I predict not one person will die of starvation. First world problems....

 

I expect the news reports of panic buying and empty shelves will be along soon.

It seems the remoaners are poor in spirit and soul,

Do you have any proof the shops won't have as much stock or is that just in your hopes, there goes that cheap crystal ball again.

I’ve got proof that there is plenty of dtuff in the shops at present. All at reasonable prices too.

 

Yesterday, we had an extremist Brexit minister telling us that we’d have “the food we need” and that prices would probably be going up. Hardly a ringing endorsement.

 

There’s also ample proof that the UK is already 15% poorer.

 

Trouble is, all you extremists won’t admit that this is already a catastrophe and is about to get worse.

 

Well done
