Originally posted by davenotamonkey Thank you, jamiemartin721, the expert on constitutional law.

We'd be stuffed if we actually ended up with a leave result (I know, unlikely, right?!), and then 5 months down the line discovered that all those experts and online remain warriors didn't tell us it wouldn't be implemented, unless passed in a heavily remain-leaning parliament! After all, wouldn't it be embarrassing if those on both sides didn't, at any point leading up to the referendum, mention that this decision would still be bounced back to parliament regardless?! Just imagine if, for example, we'd blown £9m of taxpayer money on a leaflet telling every UK household that the referendum result would be implemented immediately? How embarrassing! And wouldn't it be so embarrassing if we'd gone to the trouble of flying the US President over (he's quite busy) to 'terrorfy' [sic] and scare the sh*t out of people, so they vote in what is essentially just an opinion poll! Gosh, that would be silly! At least now that we all know, politicians like the leader of the opposition won't do anything silly like suggest Article 50 should be invoked immediately, so as to negotiate an exit from the EU! [Link] I'll be sure to bookmark your post, so that 5 months from now, just in case, I can stop all the bickering on here, and say: "hey, guys! ignorance is no excuse! This constitutional expert called it well before the referendum even took place!! Stop pandering to press 'irresponsibility' [sic] in reporting how 'parlimenary' [sic] democracy works!!". Oh, wait. I'm sorry, but what are you saying? If your point is that there was a criminal lack of clear direction before the vote, then I agree. However, that misdirection was from both sides of the debate.

You are welcome. Although its more a fact that I'm currently doing a OU unit on Constitutional Law. It was mentioned quite a few times before the referendum that the UK would require an act of parliament to leave the EU. But everyone was too focused on arguing it would be a wonderland of dreams or an apocalypse of doom, and w**king themselves silly over their fantasy of the UK, rather than being interested in the reality.
