The Conservative party are currently in power with a parliamentary majority. They were going to choose when to formally declare that the UK will leave to EU - I've no idea why but apparently the phrase everyone is using is to trigger Article 50.
The High Court has ruled that the Conservative party cannot unilaterally choose when and how to do that. The UK doesn't have a legal constitution but there are constitutional laws and the court ruled that according to those laws, all of parliament must vote - not just the incumbent party.
It's a complete mess and I have no idea what the result will be.
