Boris could go to jail if he ignores law and refuses to delay Brexit, ex-top prosecutor warns.

Boris Johnson has vowed to take Britain out of the EU by October 31 - and faces going to prison if he does not respect legislation passed by the Lords this weekBoris Johnson was seen leaving Scotland this morning after having dinner with the QueenCredit: www.newsline-media.comorders Mr Johnson to ask for a Brexit delay until January 31 next year if no agreement has been reached by October 19 and MPs do not back No Deal.

"A refusal in the face of that would amount to contempt of court which could find that person in prison." And he was encouraged by former Conservative leader Iain Duncan Smith to become a "martyr" and continue to push for Brexit. But former Tory MP Dominic Grieve, who had the whip removed for rebelling against his party last week, added: "He can't ignore the law. A Prime Minister is subject to the law of the land just like anybody else."Mr Johnson had previously vowed he would rather be "dead in a ditch" than to further delay Brexit - with sources claiming that he would even be willing to resign as PM.after being blocked by Jeremy Corbyn and Remainers.

My name is Boris !

We need to just leave now ... it’s getting out of control ..

If he goes to jail... we should stand together and not pay our tax”s

No chance but a lot of the other crowd could though.

Nonsense.

Won’t happen. Put my house on it

Bore off 🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉

Trump ignores the law all the time and nothing happens to him, maybe the British parliament are better st doing their jobs than the Americans Congress.

Come off it Parliament would have a field day if you nick him Someone’s got a do his job Boris Johnson is about time this country got on with their job

What if... European Politicians reject an extension AND withdraw their current offer... what then?...

It shouldn't be delayed again getting beyond a joke now just get on with it this country is a laughing stock

buckstopboris

Why isn’t Blair in jail

And so can parliament for treason

What a load of rubbish 🤣🤣

This Johnson man is going to beat Cameron's record and will surely become the worst Prime Minister in UK's history He should have dignity, he should resign

Why should it be delayed again. Absolute joke our country is.

All the remainers in parliament should also be jailed for expense scandal and failing to listen to over 17million people who voted to leave the EU.

Thought I read somewhere that the EU weren't going to extend the deadline. Are we going to jail them too?!!

Sorry but it's wrong

Cobswobble

🙄

Don’t be stupid.

JeSuiswiffwaff BorisJohnson Defender of the People Defender of the EU Referendum Result Shout from the highest steeple Denying Brexit is the final insult Parliament is bleeding an will fail It's full of scheming riff raff If Boris goes to jail Just shout Je Suis Wiff Waff

I'd rather he find that ditch.

LoL, he is as likely to go to jail as much as trump is!!

Put him in with TR then

I came for the comments. Never disappoints.

PRAY FOR DIVINE INTERVENTION! 🙏

In fact, those that allowed the death and destruction in Iraq should be behind bars, and not being paid to be MP’s.

Tony Blair killed millions and yet he is a free man.

But we just need to leave already, there will never be a deal made so why bother, he knows this!

It will be war

Get ready for war if they do

This is getting ridiculous now.

Yeah....right!

Even more remainers are saying they want to leave now & move on. More delay will destroy business & our future yet the remain parties are ignoring us all. They are the ones that have broken the law, they've killed democracy!

he BorisJohnson has a duty to keep his promise to the people,we have some sort of contract, we ticked what we wanted, we were promised,isn't that some form of contract,anyway 17.5 million people will protest if he gets punished for just doing what was supposed to happen 3ys ago

Let's hope so.

Remainder lies. Boris to smart to go outside the law. BUT who would stop him if democracy is to win against dictatorship

Only ones who should go to jail are the remoaners for deliberately sabotaging the largest democratic vote in our history. They’re literally traitors, colliding with a foreign power to the detriment of this country. DrainTheSwamp LockThemUp

This is the man who should be going to jail

Politicians could get caught killing people and they wouldn’t go to jail. He’s beyond the law. Same as royal family. Prince Andrew won’t get jailed either cos it won’t even go to court.

I’ll chip in the make his bail money!

If he does there will be a civil war between leavers and remainers so I doubt it would happen

Don't think the undemocratic parliamentarians would want this as this would certainly wake up the silent majority takeonefortheteamboris

Please ignore the law...please ignore the law... LockHimUp

Yeh right!

All the ones blocking it should go jail if any

Public has no confidence in Parliament! They demand election!

It shouldn’t make court as there is an alternative remedy of a confidence vote and election.

do they think 17.4 million people will allow that? We'll pull the whole lot down.
