Boris Johnson's advice to the Queen to suspend Parliament was unlawful, UK Supreme Court says, in unanimous and historic decision

Judges unanimously upheld an earlier decision by Scotland's highest civil court, which ruled that Johnson had acted illegally to suppress parliamentary scrutiny of his Brexit strategy.The decision is a huge defeat for the Prime Minister, and essentially rules that he lied to the Queen when he asked her to suspend, or "prorogue," Parliament. It will likely set off a bitter argument over whether the justices have strayed too far into the UK's political arena.

"I invite Boris Johnson, in the historic words, to consider his position and become the shortest serving Prime Minister that has ever been," Labour leader Corbyn said, speaking at his party's conference in Brighton following the Supreme Court's ruling. He added that Johnson must"obey the law, take no deal off the table and have an election to elect a government that respects democracy that respects the rule of law and brings power back to the people, not usurps it.

Get him out He just like trump NO good

💯

The queen should fire him if he doesn’t resign

Was it?

The US president realDonaldTrump always does all kinds of illegal, immoral & evil things but the US congress, judiciary & many of the people are constipated (they don’t give a shit). Hopefully, the UK won’t become like the lawless, barbaric & hate filled USA.

Jail him

It’s crazy to see what the left is like when they lose elections and referendums. Just don’t accept the results. I’m sure that won’t come back to bite you in the ass

Mais loira Na liderança de um país

That m’fer needs a comb!

Let me ask the question a little differently as in very direct. Did Boris Johnson lie to the Queen?

So who's gonna take his place? You can't tell me that no reasonable politician exists in the UK. If America could give Trump a vote of no confidence we'd have someone better, not worse, to replace him.

Great news. Proud of our judicial system. Politicians back in the commons tomorrow to work on getting the BREXIT omnishambles resolved.

Very impressive! I pray our Supremes will stand up to the tyrant in the WH.

There needs to be a call for resignations if Dominic Cummings, Nikki De Costa and Boris Johnson.

Sisi_lies we have dictator in Egypt 🇪🇬, his name Sisi

I wish we had a court like this in America. Trump needs several smack downs like this

What did The Donald say when Boris became PM? ' They're calling him Britain's Trump'. Looks like they were right.

Pathetic. The EU steps in with their agenda and judge caves. AgendaKillsPeople

Well at least ONE Supreme Court upholds the law...America, what’s your problem?!

It's all just expected it's a real stupid decision from the newly elected P.M.

Don't let democracy die in Thailand. PrayutGetOut

Another moronic leader. I guess he share drug dealer with trump.

There is people chopping up people over here

The minute Trump said Boris would be tremendous, it started to fall apart......its going down in flames.

SpeakerPelosi I hope you take a cue from what happened in UK and throw in the towel and let the impeachment process start! Put the whole thing on fast track so that he is basically impeached before the election!

Little Trump screwed up

How come our Congress can’t act as quickly on Trump impeachment issue?

How come our courts can’t make rulings as quickly? And how about a 40 day election period like Canada? Why is everything so drawn out in the US? Let’s get this Trump shit show on the road already!

He is so say meeting your great Leader later on Today. Love to be a fly on the wall listening to that conversation.

👍

Farage says Cummings should quit because ' prorogation worst ever political decision'.

Should it how it’s is HE LIED TO THE QUEEN 😱😱😱

U.K. Supreme Court: Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Suspension Of Parliament Was ‘Unlawful’The U.K.’s Supreme Court has upended Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Brexit strategy by ruling his decision to suspend Parliament was illegal. What a beautiful judgement, delivered in clear, elegant yet anticlerical English: reaffirming the role of the courts, the dominion of parliament and limitations of executive power. Baroness Hale’s tenor is that of a modest oracle; plenishing our oft assaulted moral imagination! THE ONLY SMART THING JEREMY CORBYN EVER SAID Some in flight music sir?
