Brexit, Miller & Henry VIII David Heilbron Price

Brexit, the act of leaving the European Union, is an issue with major repercussions for both UK and Europe. Following the Referendum vote of 23 June 2016, the Conservative Government of Theresa May has tried to submit the necessary Article 50 with little recourse to Parliament. Individuals, associations and UK's devolved governments have all reacted. Considered to be the most important legal issues of recent times, the Supreme Court and High Court Judgements in the case Gina Miller vs the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union are all here in one volume. Both the press summaries and the full judgement are included, together with some of the main submissions of the litigants. The written submissions of the Scottish, Northern Irish and Welsh Law Officers, ex-pats and other interested parties are also included. An Essay links this case with Common Law concepts. Ancient British law was founded on Referendums, Courts with Juries and Parliaments. The king was entirely subject to the Law of the Land.
