    They're needed for an Enabling Act.

          Well 0.13% of the UK population voted for Boris and 0.00% for the Queen. What did you expect?

            Boris to Queen: I want Parliament to be prorogated.

            Queen: Why?

            Boris: Because Trump has got evidence about Prince Andrew

            Queen: Granted

              I thought the EU didn't interfere in the affairs of a sovereign nation? Oh, hang on...

                All the players (both leavers and remainers) think it's a terrible treaty for the UK, and Barnier loves it, and insists it can't be changed. I'd call that 'reasonably conclusive'...

                  Not me. This is perfect.

                  If Brexit has all the benefits we are told about, then we win.

                  If, however, we crash out with no deal and it's as bad as expected, Boris and his cronies will have to face the consequences. The Tories will be kicked out for a generation, and we will ask to go back into the EU (under a LD/SNP/Labour government). We can then re-join the EU and join the Euro. EU skeptics can be put to bed forever.

                  It's a win-win

                      Apart from the fact that he didn't 'threaten' nor has he interfered, you might note that this is the Daily Express so most of it was made up by a rabid frothing at the mouth Eurosceptic
                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
