Unanimous judgment. All 11 Supreme Court judges agree.
1. Matter is justiciable.
What are the limits to prorogation?
1. Parliament undermined if executive can undermine it by proroguing.
2. Parliamentary accountability relies on parliamentary oversight.
Did this prorogation frustrate or prevent Parliament from carrying out its constitutional role?
Reminds us that prorogation is completely different from recess.
No justification of taking action with such extreme effect has been put forward before the court.
Court is bound to conclude that the decision to advise Her Majesty WAS unlawful.
(This is like watching a flurry of finishing moves in a fighting game.)
Prorogation brings the essential business of Parliament to an end.
Prorogation was void and of no effect. Parliament has NOT been prorogued. This is the unanimous of all 11 judges.
They're saying Parliament can and should meet again immediately.
Quite literally could not have gone better.
