Boris Johnson’s decision to suspend Parliament was unlawful, the Supreme Court has ruled.
Mr Johnson suspended – or prorogued – Parliament for five weeks earlier this month, but judges said it was wrong to stop MPs carrying out duties in the run-up to Brexit on 31 October.
Supreme Court president Lady Hale said “the effect on the fundamentals of democracy was extreme.”
The PM says he “strongly disagrees” with the ruling but will “respect” it.
A raft of MPs have now called for the prime minister to resign and some have said they would attempt to force him out if he did not go of his accord.
