And then 5 years later, lost to the Labour Party, who won in a landslide, go figure....
We should never have joined the disgusting and corrupted, Anti-democratic EU.
John Major, should keep his hypocrisy stinking trap shut, he prorogued parliament in 1997 for political reasons, to avoid parliamentary scrutiny during the "cash for questions" scandal.
Now he's joined Miller, in a Judicial Review of a Royal Prerogative Power, a convention, while the Queen cannot be challenged by any UK Court, the advice can be and a Judicial Review will not alter and cannot alter a decision made by the Queen, she approved proroguing, is a subordinate system to her, that's a Judge or Justices of any Court system that administers justice on her Majesty's behalf, who swore an oath of allegiance to the reigning monarch, going to tell her, she has to reverse her decision to prorogue because she, according to them, received the wrong advice?
Gimme a break.
If anything, the UK Judiciary should stay out of political decisions or conventions that have been made by the executive.
