Brexit plans will not be derailed by court, May says
Prime Minister Theresa May is due to tell the Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, that the Brexit timetable will not be delayed by the High Court’s Article 50 ruling.
The news comes after a ruling has directed that May cannot invoke Article 50 without Parliament's support. However, it has been reported by the BBC that May still intends to inform Juncker that the process to leave the EU will begin in March as initially planned.
The Supreme Court is expected to hear the government's appeal next month, which opens the door for a possible debate over the terms of what Britain's exit from the EU should look like.
In an interview with the BBC, Brexit Secretary David Davis, said: “Parliament voted by six to one to give the decision to the people, no ifs or buts, and that's why we are appealing this to get on with delivering the best deal for Britain."
