Failure to reach a Brexit deal would be the sole responsibility of the UK, the president of the European Commission has said.
Jean-Claude Juncker insisted he and the EU's chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier were doing all they could to secure an agreement because it would be a catastrophe for both Britain and Europe if there was no divorce settlement in place.
He also warned that negotiating a future trade deal would not be easy in the event of a no-deal.

You'd have thought that after all the crying and bickering about losing a few days, they'd have been quite willing to work a day or two extra to catch up on the business they (allegedly) needed to urgently discuss.
Perhaps they all find it much easier to go home and use Twitter & Facebook?

Boris did nothing illegal. He acted unlawfully which is quite different. Acting illegally is obviously unlawful. Acting unlawfully in the context of the SC ruling means acting against the public interest or social convention; no statute was breached.

Astounding isn't it they come back wednesday at 11-30 and pack up for a long weekend at 5-30 on thursday,perhaps they should be dragged back to court to explain what exactly trumps a "national crisis".

'What law did Boris Johnson break?
Boris Johnson's prorogation did break the law, but it broke constitutional, not criminal law.
By preventing Parliament's right to hold the government to account, he broke the rules governing how the UK functions.
What he did was "unlawful" - meaning it wasn't permitted or conforming to the law. But it is not "illegal" - which would mean forbidden by law.'
From the Brexiteer red top....
At no point did i say he had done something illegal....

It does matter, because people are trying to suggest that he committed a criminal offence, which he did not. That isn't spin, it's about stating the facts correctly. Much as you would like to 'lock him up'.

You can keep going as long as you want. You cannot find a law that was broken, otherwise post the statute.

He did not commit any criminal offence. Does that clarify it for you?

The Judiciary can’t "invent" laws.

It's called 'case law', isn't it?

Re: Brexit Development(s) Discussion
It's been known to everyone for some time that those who oppose Brexit have to put up a PM.

Not in this case*

The Supreme Court did not create a new area of law, as its US counterpart had done in establishing a precedent of judicial review in 1803 with Marbury v Madison. The UK decision is instead a fundamental reassertion of constitutional principles.
