UK PM Johnson reacts to Supreme Court ruling over Parliament suspension

  • Supreme Court ruling is not right but we will respect it
  • There is a good case for getting on with the Queen's speech
  • "As the law currently stands, the UK leaves the EU on October 31, come what may"
  • We are going to get on and deliver Brexit on Oct 31
  • "Parliament has been debating Brexit for three years solidly now is the chance for us to get a deal, come out of EU on October 31 and that is what we are going to do"
  • Of course, Parliament will come back
  • Getting a deal is not made much easier by this kind of stuff in parliament or the courts

Earlier today, the UK Supreme Court ruled that Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s suspension of Parliament was unlawful, void and of no effect and should be quashed.

John Bercow, the Speaker of the House of Commons,  announced that UK Parliament would resume at 11:30 a.m. local time on Wednesday.
