Britain's top court to hear challenges to suspension of parliament

London - Britain's Supreme Court is scheduled to begin hearing legal arguments on Tuesday against Prime Minister Boris Johnson's suspension of parliament, amid accusations that Johnson wants to reduce scrutiny of his Brexit plans.

Johnson has rejected calls to recall parliament, insisting he did not mislead Queen Elizabeth II when he asked her to approve its prorogation, or suspension. Anti-Brexit legal activist Gina Miller, the lead plaintiff in the English case, said the issue at stake is "so much more important even than Brexit."
