Even though this vote took place and was passed with a massive majority the supreme Court case will continue WTF? More money being sucked from the tax pot by the Lawers
'Lawyers for Gina Miller, the Remain campaigner who brought the case, said tonight's vote was nothing to do with the case.
They argued it had no revelance because it wasn't binding on the government - and there should be a full Act of Parliament instead.'
NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CASE!!!? The case IS about parliament voting on article 50, didn’t they just have that last night?
The whole thing should be abandoned now.

Interesting list but not surprising quite a few have asked for this elsewhere, you don't mind if I copy it ta
Even though this vote took place and was passed with a massive majority the supreme Court case will continue WTF? More money being sucked from the tax pot by the Lawers
'Lawyers for Gina Miller, the Remain campaigner who brought the case, said tonight's vote was nothing to do with the case.

Last nights vote was about agreeing a timetable for brexit
The court case is simply a matter of constitutional law - namely whether the government can use the royal prerogative to enact a law that changes the right of UK citizens
Without recourse to parliament
We have a Parliamentary democracy, the key word is parliamentary
Not a dictatorship of government, or the tyranny of the masses
It really is that simple - that's why the government will loose (and they know they will loose)

We do seem to be slipping in to a tyranny of the minority though.
All the surveys indicate that the vast majority of people wish to remain at least with full access to the single market, and also the majority do not wish to leave the EU, it's simply a matter of immigration.
A very hard core minority seem hell bent on exiting the EU no matter the cost.

These would be the same surveys that predicted Brexit wouldn't happen? The same ones that predicted that Clinton would walk it?
Come on.........they talk to a thousand people in the affluent SE and say it's indicative? My shiney @rse it's indicative.

Of all the people I know who voted for Leave, only one or two don't like the EU, they just don't like the immigration. Sadly for them, the two go hand in hand.
Still, when we Brexit and immigration still doesn't fall, they'll look a bit silly, won't they?

The polls about Brexit were close, the polls about Clinton were close (and she did indeed win the most votes, just not the way she needed). But these polls are not. You cannot claim they are suddenly just a poll of 'suverners' because you don't like what they say. The referendum was always going to be close, and the polls reflected that, albeit slightly in flavour of Remain.
Immigration may well fall a bit, but seeing as we cannot control non EU immigration, which is fully under our control, why do you think it will be any different post Brexit? Please enlighten me, I'm dying to hear it.

totally anecdotal but I don't see a massive change of heart from the leavers
obviously this is probably skewed by the vocal-ness of hard core leavers in maintaining their fantasy

I can't find the BBC article, but here is another source that is very similar.

They were reported in the BBC last week (no doubt Alcazar will cry lefties!). It' not a massive change of heart, they still want what they voted for, but they do not want to lose our access to the single market. I don't believe they ever did, just wanted less immigration (which whilst I can understand, I don't necessarily agree)

they bought into some of the Brexit nonsense (take back control etc etc) but also realise that a divorce from the EEA and Customs union would be "problematic" for the UK economy
the true believers will never be convinced, like climate change deniers (often one and the same) show them graphs of ever increasing global temps and ever disappearing sea ice and they will argue the opposite
denial is a cruel mistress

Yes, which is why surveys are done across a representative section of the population.

2.A representative of the population? That'd need the whole country to respond.
3. Both of the surveys mentioned were wrong. End of.
4. Please don't be facile: you know as well as I do that the MAIN problem is the UNCONTROLLED immigration from the EU which we cannot control in any way, (thanks Lying Labour). THAT is why it's hit new levels since we voted to leave...they think they need to get in now.
