Thursday’s bombshell High Court’s decision that Theresa May must get approval from parliament before formally withdrawing from the European Union had many of the country’s newspapers exploding with indignation.
The Daily Mail labeled the three judges who handed down the ruling “Enemies of the people.” On Thursday, the newspaper drew backlash on social media for the headline: “One founded a EUROPEAN law group, another charged the taxpayer millions for advice and the third is an openly gay ex-Olympic fencer.”
The Daily Telegraph said it was a case of “The judges versus the people,” while the Sun proclaimed “Who do you think EU are?” and accused a “foreign elite” of defying the will of British voters.
The Daily Express told Brits their country “really does need you,” declaring: “We must get out of the EU.”
