The British PM intends to go ahead with activating article 50 in March by appealing to the Supreme Court. It was the ruling of the High Court that the EU referendum has to be advisory which meant MPs had to debate and vote in the House of Commons. This would further result in it having to go through the House of Lords where the Conservative party don't have a majority.
However, Nigel Farage has argued that the EU referendum has the highest mandate in political history with more than 46 million electorates voting.
If Parliament don't get the result they want, they do have the chance to appeal to the European Court to determine Brexit's fate. More than likely, if this happens it would mean Brexit would take place because the EU wants Britain out since the result of the referendum.
Teresha May intends to tell the EU that Brexit is still on track despite the article 50 ruling. Due to Gina Miller, the polls now show that the majority of the electorate wants to remain inside the EU. This would then bring into question May's government and has the potential to lead to another general election
