London: Prime Minister Theresa May yesterday called on British MPs to accept people's verdict favouring UK's exit from the EU and work on delivering Brexit, days after a high court ruled that a parliamentary approval is must to trigger the proceedings.
In a statement issued before she left for her India visit, May said, "While others seek to tie our negotiating hands, the government will get on with the job of delivering the decision of the British people.
"It was MPs who overwhelmingly decided to put the decision in their hands. The result was clear. It was legitimate. MPs and peers who regret the referendum result need to accept what the people decided," she said.
