The EU have already stated the WA is not up for negotiation. A few tweaks will not materially change the backstop arrangements.

No. That is taking this in completely the wrong direction.

We will most probably land up with an Article 24 situation, described as a 'managed Brexit'. That should persuade the renegade Tories who are concerned with disruption. The DUP will like that, too, because there would be no backstop involved.

Ah yes, the Robin Tilbrook case that argues that we have already "legally" left the EU. Been aware of this case for some time. Using the same legal argument that Gina Miller made regarding "Legal Powers", that the PM did not have the power to extend Article 50, without an Act of Parliament.

A former Appeals Judge, Sir Richard Aikens has said Mrs May's Article 50 extension was “highly unsatisfactory” and “arguably illegal”.

This would put the Brexit Cat amongst the Remainer Pigeons, if his case holds weight.

It clearly has Westminster spooked, if it's hit the House of Commons Library briefing papers.

I just don't see our bent system of justice coming down on the side of brexit if it's proved we have legally left the EU.

Farage, BoJo know that Tillbrook's case is flawed. Inclusion in papers filed for the House of Commons Library is for historical completeness.

You misunderstand the rule, so no it isn’t relaxed. The link is to YouTube. I have told you before, if you have a site query, PM a team member. Do not post off-topic again and that includes replying to this.

Good news is that if you feel this strongly about our justice system, you still have an opportunity to exercise your freedom of movement benefits and see if the grass is greener.

You are not a legal expert, so don’t have the qualification to say if it’s flawed.

You don't need a legal qualification to sniff out the BS in this case, Mick.

I trust the word of a former appeals judge over your “Arm chair” expertise any day. And as for BS-There has been plenty of whiffs of it from your side since 2016.

Talk about straw clutching. This takes it to a new level.

I was researching this Robin Tilbrook character: he is the founder of a sad and slightly sinister party called the English Democrats.

In its 2016 manifesto, the party proposed a devolved English Parliament,[5] instead of its 2014 suggestion that England should become an independent country.[6] It presents itself as an English equivalent to the Scottish National Party,[7] though the Scottish National Party is generally considered to be a centre-left party, whereas the English Democrats are on the right of the political spectrum.[8] The English Democrats have welcomed defectors from the far-right British National Party into leadership roles and former members of the party have criticised informal links with other far-right organisations, though party leader Robin Tilbrook has stated that party members are expected to pledge their opposition to racism

Just looks a nobody who want his time in the sun jumping on the the Brexit Betrayal narrative.

I will offer this one as an alternative.

Sadly, I believe we are. Still lawfully in the EU.
