The coruscating verdict of the Supreme Court was devastating & unanimous. All 11 justices, the maximum allowed to sit in any case, were in agreement that the prorogation of Parliament was not only unlawful but null and void. Yesterday’s Supreme Court judgement was an absolute destruction of the Prime Minister, as a lawyer I can tell you this is unprecedented. This court is normally very cautious, so what they have done is stunning – he should resign immediately.
The Justices decided it was unconstitutional, improper, based on lies and that this use of the prerogative power is amenable to legal judgement. They delivered a verdict from which the PM’s reputation cannot recover. He has lied to the queen and to the people of this country. He has abused his power in a way so egregious that he has shown himself unfit to hold the highest office in the land and he must go.

The people of Liverpool know what a liar and a charlatan Boris Johnson is because of his disgusting and vile slurs against Liverpool and the victims of the Hillsborough disaster. When he became Prime Minister I asked him to apologise to Liverpool and he wouldn’t, that says it all. Now the Supreme Court has illustrated to the rest of the Country what we have known for many years.
I can’t wait to go back to Parliament today so I give voice to my constituents, hold the Tories to account for their dangerous policies and so I can tell Boris Johnson to his face that he should resign NOW!
