The Parliamentary Battle Over Brexit provides answers to those who
want to understand the bitter arguments that occurred over Brexit,
what might have been handled better, and the role that parliament
played. Since the 2016 referendum, the hotly contested issue of
Brexit has raised fundamental questions about the workings of
British democracy. Nowhere was this more true than regarding the
role of parliament. This book addresses important questions about
parliament's role in the UK constitution, and the impact on this of
the Brexit process. While initially intended to re-establish
'parliamentary sovereignty', Brexit wrought significant damage on
the reputation of parliament, and the wider culture of UK
democracy. Charting the full story of the parliamentary battle over
Brexit, Meg Russell and Lisa James show that it wasn't always what
it seemed. Based on careful documentary research and extensive
interviews with key protagonists, the book explores multiple
nail-biting moments, procedural innovations, and political 'what
if's'. Drawing on insider accounts, alongside media and
parliamentary debates, the book puts the events of Brexit into
context and provides a clear and reliable document of record on a
complex and disputed story. Ultimately, it argues that Brexit was
largely a battle inside the Conservative Party, for which
parliament got the blame. Insightful and comprehensive, the book is
necessary reading to those with broader interests in British
Politics, the culture of UK democracy, and the challenges of
populism and democratic 'backsliding'.

Four-year-old Lisa's world turned upside down when her
step-father moved in. Most of the time he was just violent but then
he started making her do things she knew were wrong. Soon he was
visiting her at night. Lisa begged her mother for help but she just
shrugged, telling Lisa he would have his way. It was the greatest
betrayal of all.
At first Lisa's step-father would just make her stroke and
massage his feet, hitting her if she stopped, but he soon wanted
more. Much more. By the time she was 12 he was regularly abusing
her. One day, when Lisa turned 16, she came home to discover that
her mother had swapped bedrooms with her. 'You're my girlfriend
now', her step-father told her. Lisa turned to her mother for help,
but was met with a shrug. She wouldn't hear a word against her
husband. 'Don't blame me, ' she said. Her step-father's abuse was
horrific but what completely tore her apart was knowing her mother
knew and encouraged it.
Trapped and increasingly desperate, Lisa tried to find a way
out. But her isolation was complete. Several months later her
mother told her she'd arranged for Lisa and her step-father to move
into a flat together down the road. It was too much for Lisa to
bear. 'Please don't make me, please, ' she sobbed. But her mother
just ignored her. Lisa was marched around to the flat with her
possessions and her nightmare was complete.
Alone with her step-father, Lisa's life became even more
unbearable. Then one day, finally, she got the chance she'd been
looking for to escape. Lisa bravely struck out on her own,
petrified her mother would find her and hand her back into the
waiting arms of her step-father. But Lisa's mother had no idea how
determined she was to break away "
