Parliament has passed the Brexit bill, paving the way for the government to trigger Article 50 so the UK can leave the European Union.

Michel Kangro Brexiteers don't care about details, only ideologies. As long as they get Britain out of Europe at any cost, they're happy. What's astonishing is that Parliament doesn't have the guts to stand up to this. Actually formulating some kind of even vaguely coherent exit strategy is too difficult, but hell, we must get out, it's the will of the people... so if jumping off the cliff is the only option, then it's time for some base jumping without a parachute.
