Johnson’s legal spanking barely moves Brexit dial peter_tl
The United Kingdom’s Supreme Court on Sept. 24 ruled that Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s decision to shut down parliament in the run-up to Brexit was unlawful.
“The decision to advise Her Majesty to prorogue parliament was unlawful because it had the effect of frustrating or preventing the ability of parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification,” Supreme Court President Brenda Hale said, reading out the unanimous decision by the court’s 11 judges.Sterling initially hit a day’s high of $1.2479 after the ruling before falling back to trade at $1.2454, up 0.2% on the day.
There was no word from Johnson, who was in New York attending the United Nations General Assembly. The government declined to comment.
