The Article 50 Bill: the start, not the end, of the Brexit process.

Theresa May has now published Article 50 legislation – the Bill to start the UK’s disentanglement from the European Union – in preparation for MPs’ votes.

MPs have been given just five days to debate it – and try to amend it.

The Bill, which is only eight lines long and contains just 130 words, was published this week after the Supreme Court ruled that MPs and peers must give their consent to invoking Article 50.
