      All together now: Sovereignty doesn’t rest in Brussels *or* the Westminster Parliament; it is the British people who are sovereign. The will of Parliament should represent the will of the people. Whether MPs like it or not, the people voted for Brexit.https://twitter.com/lukemcgee/status/1159045819040968705 …

      Luke McGeeVerified account @lukemcgee
      In writing this had a thought about the constitutional precedent that actually doing no deal against the will of parliament would set. Somewhat flies in the face of returning sovereignty to parliament, a point I remember *some people* making in 2016 https://edition.cnn.com/2019/08/07/uk/the-uk-cant-have-a-constitutional-crisis-intl-gbr/index.html …

      all irrelevant. The British people were asked and never consented to giving away our Parliamentary sovereignty to the EU.

      That tweet is about MPs giving away British Parliamentary sovereignty to Brussels. The British Parliament gets its mandate from the people who vote MPs in - and vote them out. So the British people are ultimately sovereign. That’s the whole point of living in a bloody democracy!

          We live in a Parliamentary democracy. Taking back control was about returning apparently lost sovereignty to the British Parliament, a point you helpfully made in the tweet I linked.

          That's what leavers meant in 2016. Now what they mean is that Parliament ought to function as nothing more than an administrative body nodding through certain things without oversight or control. Suddenly sovereignty has nothing to do with Parliament.

          Simply; The People are Sovereign and any references to Parliament assume that they represent and serve the people "who are Sovereign". When the MP's agreed to a Referendum ( rightly rare occurrence) they fail to perform their duty to a disciplinary level in any other line of work

          We're living in a Constitional Monarchy. That's the difference. The Crown is sovereign.

          A Constitutional Monarchy means that, although the Sovereign is Head of State, the ability to make and pass legislation resides with an elected Parliament.

          Absolutely correct. My point was a constitional one - in the UK, the people are not sovereign, we are subjects of the Crown in which all power is vested and from which all authority stems, hence Johnson can't just bypass parliament of his own accord.

          Which, by your own logic, must have a mechanism for choice & reversal. Sovereignty & democracy are not interchangeable principles to ram home 1 vote. Your selective & misguided use of both only works for those who believe your false assertions. We have a parliamentary democracy.

          We had a general election in 2017 so the MPs are in charge till the next 1. Really May should’ve called an election once the withdrawal agreement failed the 1st time but labour were ahead in the polls

          You are mixing it up with a republic, where the people are sovereign and referendums are binding and run about things that can actually be achieved.
