British MPs will have their say on whether the UK can trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, which will start the process of leaving the European Union, a High Court has ruled.

The lord chief justice, Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, said that “the most fundamental rule of the UK constitution is that parliament is sovereign.”
The judgment is a huge setback for Theresa May, who had argued that the referendum results mean MPs do not need to vote. Campaigners called this unconstitutional.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said the ruling "underlines the need for the government to bring its negotiating terms to parliament without delay".

"Labour will be pressing the case for a Brexit that works for Britain, putting jobs, living standards and the economy first."

Britain voted to leave the EU in June by a margin of 51.9% to 48.1%.
Negotiations about the terms of the UK's exit cannot begin until Article 50 is triggered.
