"Why do you think the

injunction to stop them in their tracks if they did not

Sceptic
(Regarding your Post at "Sun Jun 22, 2008 12:56"

08:31 What, in your view, is
the purpose of the United Kingdom High Court case regarding
the Lisbon Treaty Referendum, if it cannot produce any useful
results? -- by way of forcing a referendum for UK
citizens?
Why do you think the UK High Court
judge (Lord Justice Richards) threatened the Executive Branch
of the UK Government with a court injunction to stop them in
their tracks if they did not respond favourably to his
"invitation" to "stay their hand" regarding the matter of
ratification?
Why do you think UK Prime Minister
Gordon Brown MP instantly decided to fully accept the
"invitation" of Lord Justice Richards?
Last but
not least, why do you think the "tycoon" who has brought the
case before the UK High Court would be doing what he is doing
if he did not believe that his actions might produce the
result he seeks (i.e. a referendum for UK citizens on the
Lisbon Treaty), and what of his legal advisers? -- what do you
think they are hoping to achieve?
Also, can you
provide any written evidence in support of your assertions
regarding the "Unwritten UK Constitution", and the manner in
which you apparently believe it functions? (Though some might
not agree, I am assuming here that The Magna Carte -- issued
in 1215 AD -- is no longer the written Constitution of the
United Kingdom, at least not in
full.)
