Gina Miller is a beautiful lady. She’s also very clever, incredibly successful and speaks right posh, like wot I do. Innit. She’s my new hero. Not because of any of the above, but just because she has such fabulous principles. As in: ‘look at da principles on dat one!! Phwoarrrrr!’. The new cry from builders in the PC world. If Gina is a Spurs fan I’d believe in God.

Gina took the world to court. And bloody won. Ok, she took the UK to court, and won. All because of the Brexit vote. Which this court ruling does not in any way overturn, you can’t do that. But it makes the ruling that ‘article 50’; our way of leaving the EU, cannot be invoked without firstly passing it in parliament.

Ok, which at that point, does present a bit of a constitutional dilemma. Because ‘the nation has spoken’ in the stupid referendum, and out of Europe we must go. But probably a majority of MPs did not want Brexit. And so could refuse to pass the necessary bill to trigger article 50. Which would be stupid, would go against democracy… but in a very democratic way. Just a different part of democracy. You followin’?? The people were asked, the people decided, but aren’t allowed to have their way til the guv’nors have nodded approval.

Or, they could only approve the Great Exit if the terms we seek are the terms the majority ‘remainers’ want. As we now call ‘a soft brexit’. Whereas most Brexiteers want a ‘hard one’. In a nice way.

The matter now rests with the Supreme Court. Next month. And if that institution agrees then Theresa May will pretty much have to call a general election to extend her mandate.

Its all fucked up, and all due to Gina. Who had the idea, who paid for all of it and who just wants everything legal and kosher. And not at all to try to reverse the decision now ‘the plebs have spoken’ nor just make things difficult for everyone after all those involved lied for all they’re worth in the run-up.

And the only reason any of this is in any way relevant is because football is currently too painful to consider. This is a welcome distraction.

Happy Friday
