The government will comply with the judgment of the court and do all that it can to implement it. Brexit secretary david davis is due to make a statement later setting out how the government will respond. Good morning from the Supreme Court which today has made legal, constitutional and political history. With this judgment by eight to three, it is parliament that has to three, it is parliament that has to trigger article 50 to begin the formal process of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union. It is a defeat for the government, which said that through its Prerogative Powers it could trigger article 50 alone.
