I agree, Richard, and Bogdanor was wrong. He should have said, as you do, that we do not have a WRITTEN constitution. Bit of a howler for a law professor.

But why did no one correct Cameron when he said he would activate Art.50 immediately there was a "leave" vote? Because no one thought it would happen, of course.

But I would advise the PM to declare war on all 27 EU member states, which she undoubtedly has the power to do, whereupon we would be immediately expelled, no Commons vote, no Act of Parliament, no Art. 50 and no 2 years. Just get on with it. No need even to fire a shot. And anyway the EU will no longer exist 5 years after our departure...and that of several others.
