Article 50

News reports confirm a clause buried in a statement passed by EU leaders last month: if we need time to change our mind, we’ll get it.

Whether Article 50 can be unilaterally revoked before the Brexit deadline is a question that needs to be decided by the ECJ.

First we need a People’s Vote on the Brexit deal - and, if public don’t like it, an option to stay in EU. Then we need to win that vote.

Macron, Tusk and Juncker have said in past week that we can stay in EU if we wish. Now we just have to convince people it’s a good idea.

Top QCs argue convincingly that we can change our minds. PM’s refusal to reveal her own advice suggests it reaches same conclusion.

May says a two-year transition is enough. It isn’t. She may hope it’ll then be easy to get an extension. It won’t. It’s time she fessed up.

New Brexit minister Callanan retracts statement that Article 50 is irreversible. More evidence that we can change our minds if we wish.

Fixing a precise Brexit date is deeply unwise; and its promise of legislation at end of Brexit process doesn’t cover the “no deal” scenario.

John Kerr, who drafted Article 50, says we don’t have to leave EU if we don’t want to. We imagine UK breaking news to EU Council president.

Government doesn’t want scrutiny of Brexit talks. After yesterday’s parliamentary vote, it should publish 58 impact studies in full.

Theresa May is in thrall to hard Brexit Conservative MPs. She should start negotiating in the national interest instead.

From “blackmail” to Gibraltar, papers seem intent on stoking anti-EU animosity while politicians on both sides talk of goodwill.
