Nigel Farage said this about Article 50 and everyone’s making the same joke
The European Court of Justice has ruled that the UK can unilaterally stop the Brexit process. The court said in its ruling today that any EU member state can revoke an article 50 process without needing approval from every other member state.
Not everyone was happy that the European Union was giving us the freedom to determine our own future, though. Nigel Farage, for one, who said this.
No surprise there, the collusion to stop Brexit continues. https://t.co/aqiVREltBM

Right so self-proclaimed sovereignty enthusiast and patriot Nigel Farage would prefer that the decision on whether A50 could be revoked was out of our hands and in the hands of the EU.

What a weird take. EU court confirms British sovereignty. Isn't that exactly what you said you wanted?

They're literally telling us we can do whatever we want to do

How dare the European Court of Justice underline the fact that British sovereignty allows us to make our own decisions & control our destiny while we are still members of the EU!?
