Boris Johnson to ‘see what judges say’ on recalling Parliament

(FASTNEWS | COLOMBO) – Boris Johnson has said he will “wait and see what the judges say” before deciding whether to recall Parliament.

The Supreme Court will hear two appeals that will determine whether the prime minister acted lawfully in suspending Parliament for five weeks.

Edinburgh’s Court of Session said the shutdown was unlawful and London’s High Court said it was not a court matter.

On Monday the PM visited Luxembourg for Brexit talks, but the EU said it was yet to see concrete proposals.

Mr Johnson pulled out of a joint press conference with Luxembourg Prime Minister Xavier Bettel, blaming noisy protesters, but Mr Bettel went on to criticise Mr Johnson’s approach to Brexit.
