Why the breakthrough?
Undermining the courts and parliament looks wrong if you think independence is coming.
Trouble is press is conniving. So no one is explaining it's far worse.

Ok some of you know the headline.
Boris will make sure he has the final say. Overturning Magna Carta.
1000 years of British history and a normal democratic courtesy says no one should be above the law.
Gone.
Boris knows best.
Thank God we can rely on his scrupulous probity

2. The courts are the final protection for democracy, but here are others to get rid of
Parliament itself is sometimes needed to make laws. Unless you extend the "royal prerogative" so you can make diktats.
The house of lords annoying too.
Guess what #borisisacoward also added

As a #Leaver then 120,000 avoidable deaths caused by "austerity" (ucl.ac.uk/news/2017/nov/…) is too much for me. But then I'm part of the "cult of Corbyn" rather than the coalition of Conservatives and LibDems that were behind it. Brexit is a secondary issue. ->
X : Austerity has nothing to do with EU
Me : Ask Greece. Ask Italy. Ask … oh, why bother. I suspect you believe the EC works on behalf of its citizens? Bless you. In the words of Cecilia Malmström, EC Trade Commissioner - “I do not take my mandate from the European people.”

... still, it doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't work with the EU / EC. Of course we should. But there are more important issues at play here - austerity, education, investment and inequality.
1/ Yes there is more to it than GDP. Silver lining of #Brexit is it has woken up all of us Brits who are proEU. Before EURef we did not need to be active or engaged. Now we bloody well do because the future of our country is at stake. #FBPE #WATON #REMAIN #StopBrexitSaveBritain
2/ irony of #Brexit is that it has created a massive pro EU grassroots across the U.K. Millions of British people who are just if not more passionate, determined, committed & angry as any #Leaver or #Brexiter. #FBPE #WATON #StopBrexitSaveBritain #remainernow #FinalSay #StopBrexit
3/ Why are #Remainers so committed to stopping #Brexit? More reasons than you could give in a series of tweets. First & foremost we believe it is catastrophic to our country & we therefore have a duty to stop that damage to our country #fbpe #WATON #StopBrexit #REMAIN #FinalSay
