Government loses Brexit vote appeal
David Greene, Edwin Coe’s Senior Partner and solicitor for hairdresser Deir Tozetti Dos Santos, said the Supreme Court had decided that the rights attached to the UK’s membership of the EU were given by Parliament and can only be taken away by it.
He hailed today’s ruling as “a victory for democracy and the rule of law and we should all welcome it”.
He said Theresa May’s decision to allow Parliament a vote was “insufficient” but was only brought about by the Supreme Court case.
