It does not prevent Brexit but you are assuming there will be an open debate in parliament requiring the government to reveal details of what it will involve. As many have said, to do that would be like showing your hand to your opponent in a game of cards. How can that happen? Also the EU has said that negotiations will only begin after Art.50 is triggered. So the question is will the MP's who are mostly saying that the wishes of the people should be honoured, agree to trigger Art.50 with little if no detail? Maybe they will. If they don't agree and the motion is defeated, I can't see anything but a general election happening. As of June the 22nd, MP's were 4 to 1 in favour of remaining according to what I read on the BBC's website.
