UK supreme court rules parliament still sitting



LONDON: Britain’s Supreme Court has ruled that Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s suspension of Parliament was “void and of no effect.”

Judge Brenda Hale says that means Parliament was never legally suspended and is technically still sitting.

She said lawmakers could decide when to reconvene.

The unanimous decision by the 11 judges is a devastating blow for the government.
