Relax both of you. Your beloved Art.50 will be triggered.

Parliament will have a vote on triggering art.50 and will most likely vote to trigger art.50.
I already told you guys not to get too excited about this ruling.

Or in the words of Geoffrey Robertson, QC,

You have told people not to **** their pants and also suggest you have told people not to get excited over this.

I don't see anyone doing either. The only thing I see is you pretending you are somehow superior while trying you're best to troll people.

It has been made perfectly clear that once Article 50 is invoked the UK will leave.

Parliament can still decide to stay in the European Union after Article 50 is triggered, a leading constitutional lawyer has said following the Supreme Court’s Brexit verdict.

Think about the good side. Supreme Court ruled Scotland can't have a veto on Article 50.

All SC said it requires a bill in parliament and with Tory majority and many labours also supporting the bill, Brexit is still very likely to happen.

Then constitution and court verdict are upheld and people's will also respected

All the court did was its job. There was a disagreement over the constitution so the Supreme Court, the body which is competent to make decisions about the constitution, decided who was right. I see it as a victory for democracy and justice.

The next steps are that Parliament will vote on Brexit and it will clear the HoC pretty easily as I reckon all the Tories except probably Ken Clarke will vote Aye and the Lib Dems + SNP will vote Nay along with something like 50 Labour MPs so that makes 300++ Aye and say 110 Nay. The rest of Labour will either vote Aye or abstain so it'll be either 500++ to 110+ or 300++ to 110+.

May has already said that if the Lords try to vote it down she'll simply pack the Lords with pro Brexit life peers and send it back.

Democracy in action.

it would seem to me that if the majority of MPs decide to support a vote of no confidence in the government, then brexit could be stopped at any time : it didn't/doesn't need a ruling from the supreme court.

As no parliament can be limited by former decisions it is obvious that parliament can change its mind on brexit after article 50 is activated.

Whether article 50 can be rescinded by the UK alone (i.e. without the agreement of the EU27) is another matter.
