How dare they? Britain’s Brexit-supporting newspapers could not conceal their fury when the country’s High Court ruled
on November 3 that Prime Minister Theresa May needed the parliament’s
agreement to trigger the process that takes the United Kingdom out of
the European Union.
“ENEMIES OF THE PEOPLE” screamed the front page of the Daily Mail, underneath pictures of the three judges who handed down the ruling. “The judges versus the people” was the Daily Telegraph’s front-page headline. The Sun combined an assault on the judges with this less-than-subtle attack
on the woman who brought the case in the first place: “Handful of EU
campaigners led by foreign-born multi-millionaire Gina Miller derail
Theresa May’s Brexit plans.”
All three papers violated the age-old British principle of fairness
in sport and politics: play the ball, not the man. The fact of the
matter is that the verdict creates much uncertainty for Britain’s exit
from the EU.http://carnegieeurope.eu/strategiceurope/?fa=65047&mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTWpRMU5UUXlZMkpsWlRobSIsInQiOiJ3aFlNOFZ0XC83TEpFT3VOTjBKS1ZSMldwXC9GM0hmazUxYWlwWnpMUEI3NlR3OFwvaFIyNkRobEpaNUJQTWpYeDM0TTBcLzdxeWVGcDd5RXN6V3U4N01Ba3FRUFM0ZWFXWmJock15Q0RPOEhzZ2M9In0%3D
