RogerC Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 So the majority have 'no common sense'?? All this proves is that once again EU law overrides UK law......one of the very issues of EU 'dictatorship' that gave fuel to the 'exit' vote.

pepe63xnotuse Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 RogerC - 2017-01-24 11:52 AM ...All this proves is that once again EU law overrides UK law..... Eh?...How on earth does this decision make you come to that conclusion?.... UK judges, sitting in a UK court, drawing upon UK laws.... come to the conclusion that the UK Parliament should get a vote before Article 50 is triggered...?.. I thought these were some of the things the Leave side had always been shouting about? "..take back power!.." etc. ? :-S (But how long before the non-Dom, multimillionaire owners of the usual rags will be telling their unquestioning devotees that one/some of the Judges may be gay/ a vegetarian/ or once smoked pot at Uni' etc..?. *-) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than you would think, offset by the loss on 11 to 0 though. Had a smile today as Paddy Power lost £5m on the Trump win. £4m due to the win and £1m due to paying out early on Clinton!

Thank you for the clarification which required my further investigating the issue and highlights one of the reasons for the desire of the majority in the referendum to leave the EU....to recover legal supremacy from the EU.

Get in on the 2020 Presidential election. Paddy Power have Kanya West at 100-1 and Beyonce at 200-1. I thought Kanya West was a suburb somewhere in America until i googled but either has to be worth a punt. Beyonce knows how to twerk so she's definitely White House material. The only thing holding me back is Trump won't serve a full term in office so it could be a hamburger flipper from downtown Detroit, or a Las Vegas stripper. http://www.paddypower.com/bet/politics/other-politics/us-politics?ev_oc_grp_ids=2711243 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
