and borisjohnson is sticking with the idea that the prorogation of parliament was to do it on queen ‘s speechtober the 14th and it had nothing to do with brexit but i think most people are very aware that parliament was suspended simply so that parliament was suspended simply so that it couldn't scrutinise the no deal bill, the preparations, and to try and prevent a bill which actually did then come to existence. it seemed like a wheeze that boris johnson tried to do that ultimately failed because there is now this bill in place and although he says he will ignore it, it will be quite tough for him. well, it is very tricky because he was quite clear in parliament about this bill that became law on monday that does require the government and the prime minister to seek an extension of article 50 if there is no deal in place before the european summit i october the 19th. johnson is saying in parliament he will not ask for another delay, he will not. he is adamant that is not something he is willing to do. it is a question of how you get around the letter of the law. but also, the independent is

life will mean life or child killers, tougher sentences for the worst offenders, expected in the queen ‘s speechve by boris johnson. number of people get full life terms is incredibly small. —— the number. and it is within the gift, if you like, of the courts to impose that already. this is only talking about killers of children who are under school age. so, infants, really. but downing street has put this announcement out. apparently boris johnson is has put this announcement out. apparently borisjohnson is going to use the queen's speech to announce a new sentencing bill. and the other thing is that they want to get rid of labour's policy of prisoners becoming eligible for release halfway through their sentence. it just seems it goes against any sort of rehabilitation. i always feel uncomfortable with things like this. i think the whole essence of prison release is a complex business. the pa role release is a complex business. the parole board doesn't always get it right, but i still think that system is much better. if they are a danger, they have to stay in. but if there is a chance of rehab

to recall parliament which then gets really complicated because if you are going to have the queen ‘s speechdown whitehall and all the security arrangements to be put in place. and then the final properly politically nuclear option is that the court says yes it is our business and the prime minister is a liar. and then i think we would be into house for a resignation, that would be a massive political intervention. people are relu cta nt to political intervention. people are reluctant to get into politics from the courts. it would be a constitutional crisis. talking about a pot constitutional crisis. talking about apot— constitutional crisis. talking about a pot — may possibly political —— dahsa possibly politicised cream. queen. we always run out of things to say. going to start reading page one. what do we have to do next week? borisjohnson is what do we have to do next week? boris johnson is going what do we have to do next week? borisjohnson is going to new york for the un general assembly and that he will see leo varadkar, emmanuel macron. we don't have time to go into it. and the lib d

borisjohnson said was the reason for that suspension of parliament which was preparation for the queen 's speechsense, sir john major says that makes no sense and cannot be the explanation. so effectively, accusing the current prime minister of dishonest motives. let's just recap for you what happened yesterday. in the courtier, the supreme court, the highest court in the land which is considering this crucial legal constitutional, political question about whether the prime minister did unlawfully suspend parliament. our legal correspondent clive coleman has been following proceedings inside the court. much of the argument has been had and lawyers for the government addressing the court from these benches have focused on the point that for rogaine or suspending parliament as a purely political matter and is not one on which a court can and should adjudicate because there simply are no legal standards against which it can be judged. on the other hand, lawyers for the business woman gina miller and a group of 70 parliamentarians have argued that the suspension was unlawful because its purpose was

very clear that the prorogation of parliament is about making sure that we are going to have a queen ‘s speeche you a lot of time to talk about the issue, the high—street issues. i would really like you to address the issue specific the suspension of parliament. charlie, what i was going to say, i was... go ahead. i was going to. standing here today, talking about issues like this, is actually what the vast majority of people in this country want us to get on with. the domestic agenda. revitalising places. investing money in making sure that places, our public services, for example, are thriving. that is what borisjohnson wa nts to thriving. that is what borisjohnson wants to do an traditionally parliament is prorogued before a queen speech. there was plenty of debate about brexit in the first couple of weeks of september and the important thing is parliament will be sitting over the crucial period of the eu council and october 31. let me, if i may, remind you that in june, on bbc question time, you said proroguing parliament was clearly a mad suggestion. you said shutting down parliament for

you want to set out an agenda, what your government will be about and you do that by having a queen ‘s speechssion to leave the eu after the 31st. we have seen how parliament and certainly the opposition has worked to try and essentially get britain to surrender the in these negotiations and make sure that we never leave the eu and we never get a good deal. and that is unacceptable. but for us it is not just about brexit. is unacceptable. but for us it is notjust about brexit. what is unacceptable. but for us it is not just about brexit. what we is unacceptable. but for us it is notjust about brexit. what we had yesterday was my spending round which allowed us to set out a bit more about what this government will be about. yesterday we saw the biggest increase in departmental spending in 15 years. we saw for the first time since 2002 that there was no cut in any department spending. and now we want to focus on what i think other people ‘s priorities. i get your frustration, i get yourfrustration, as chancellor you want to talk about your spending review and what you wa nt to your spending rev

we have those two weeks with the queen ‘s speech and plenty of opportunity at the end of october andges have not gone anywhere now because we are still some way away from the end of october. but if borisjohnson tries to the law, i will be confident the supreme court would oblige him to obey the law and if he then won‘t do so, ithink obey the law and if he then won‘t do so, i think he will lose a motion of no confidence in the house of commons and there will be a new government. there is no willingness whatsoever in parliament to put up with any more nonsense from boris johnson, no more of his lies, no more of him ordering the cream to do things that are unspun to choose your. —— things that are non—constitutional. people have had enough of boris johnson non—constitutional. people have had enough of borisjohnson already. to all intents and purposes, his premiership is now over. meanwhile, a legal challenge brought over boris johnson‘s decision to suspend parliament for five weeks has been rejected by leading judges at the high court in london. the anti—brexit campaigner, gina miller,

ministers insisted is to allow for a new queen's speech setting up the government ‘s plans for the nextpension is a cynical move to keep mps away from westminster in the run—up to brexit stop dominic grieve demanded to see all the communications between ministers and special advisor ‘s. between ministers and special advisor 's. we have seen documents that show that although on the 23rd of august of this year number 10 downing street and the prime minister denied considering the idea of proroguing at all, in fact, internal government documents reveal that this matter was under consideration some ten days before. he said a remarkable memo has shown the prime minister was happy with that and thought the ideas of mp sitting in september are necessary and contemptible. it is also rather noteworthy that when we found what was under the reduction it turned out he condemned mr david cameron's belief in having a september sitting as being a" girlie swat" which i suppose was meant to be contrasted with his manly idleness. but the government did have supporters. with his manly idleness. but the go
