After several weeks of debate on the floors House of Commons
and House of Lords, after the end of the various legal tussle between the
government and concerned citizens. Her Majesty the Queen is now going to give
the Royal Assent for the UK to official kick-start the exit process from the
EU.
Once the bill otherwise known as the European Union
(Notification of Withdrawal) Bill, becomes law, it will empower the PM to
trigger Article 50 that will official start the exit deal with the other 7 EU
member states
According to sources from the government, it is probable
that the monarch’s Royal Assent may be signed at about 11am
Government sources say Royal Assent is likely to be granted
at around 11am.
Such a bill has never been rejected by the monarch since
1707 apart from when Queen Anne refused it for a Bill for settling the militia
in Scotland.
The bill's passing into law follows a difficult day for the
Government in which ministers were accused of "driving towards a
cliff-edge with a blindfold on".
Surprisingly, Brexit Secretary David Davis has been made to
accept the fact that the office he heads is yet to make an assessment of the
economic consequences of a failed Brexit deal with the EU.
His admission was despite the Prime Minister repeatedly
saying she thinks no deal is better than a bad deal.
