Scottish court could censor UK Govt over Brexit

Published on: 

Scotland’s highest court says it could censure the British Government if it tries to skirt its obligation to avoid a no-deal exit from the European Union at the end of this month.

Britain’s Parliament has passed a law compelling the Government to seek a three-month delay to Brexit if an EU divorce deal was not in place by October 19 — and to accept a delay if the EU offers. Judges at the Court of Session in Edinburgh ruled Monday that the case should continue until the Government’s obligations under the law have been complied with “in full.”
