Today, Prime Minister Boris Johnson had a major blow as Britain’s Supreme Court gave ruling against him with respect to the UK Parliament suspension for 5 weeks at a crucial time.

Supreme Court President Brenda Hale said the suspension

was unlawful because it had the effect of frustrating or preventing the ability of Parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification.

The highest and unanimous court with a panel of 11 judges has said that the suspension of Parliament for 5 weeks is

void and of no effect.

It is a crucial time for the UK as it has to make a decision on whether to leave the 28-nation Brexit or not by October 31.

The opponents have also accused Boris Johnson of misleading the queen in regarding the Parliament suspension. After coming to power in July, Boris Johnson and Parliament have been at odds.
