Tekktyke, Article 50 prescribes that any withdrawal will be in accordance with the member state's own constitutional arrangements. TM thinks she can do this under the royal prerogative but I think she is wrong. RP can't trump act of parliament, so there will have to be a vote in parliament before the European Communities Act 1972 could be repealed. It's perfectly possible that if given a vote, MP's will vote to give effect to the will of the people. If she attempts to activate without parliamentary approval then those bringing the legal case will seek an injunction until it is determined. The case will go all the way to the Supreme Court, whichever way it goes. And probably ultimately (delicious irony) to the ECHR! Whatever the final outcome, it's going to take a long, long time.

According to the Guardian , the bill will be to basically cut and paste the current laws we operate under en bloc into purely British law . It appears a common sense idea to get things moving whilst guaranteeing continuity of existing rights . Not necessarily popular with those who propose a purely hard brexit but it makes a start , without triggering blind panics on thousands of issues that no Govt. could deal with quickly.
