And this seems to be flaw in the Benn act that might have been spotted; https://waitingfortax.com/2019/09/15...-the-benn-act/

Essentially Boris Johnson can get Parliament to pass the Withdrawal Agreement before immediately prologue again preventing the further legalisation required to avoid no deal.

I see zero chance of any of that happening.

Well we’re almost there now aren’t we, with Parliament denying the execution of the result of the referendum to the electorate.

Whether you are dictated by an individual (Saddam) or a group (Chinese Gov’t) or Parliament....it’s still a dictatorship.
