the UK Government could go down a similar route if it wished.

The impartiality of the Judiciary has not really been questioned until the antics of Gina Millar and the judgement of the blair construct of the supreme court. That is why I would prefer to revert to what was before. Had the PM retained the ability to go to the polls when he/she wished the circus of recent months would have been avoided.
The electorate held parliament accountable to their promise to deliver brexit. It was only because parliament thought itself above the people, and acted in defiance of them, that this sorry saga resulted.
As was clearly demonstrated the people have sovereignty. As will our country very shortly.
We, the people, took back control. It has a nice ring to it does it not? It is anathema to socialists and that makes it even sweeter.
