Seemingly only Scottish law applies as Queenie was in Scotland when she signed the paper authorising the prorogation!

The power to prorogue Parliament belongs to the Monarch as part of the Royal Prerogative, on the advice of the Privy Council,[2] but is rarely refused if requested by the prime minister."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

I do believe Remainers are being short-sighted in trying so hard to stop Brexit.
It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to (1) make a lot of money and (2) discredit the stupids for at least half a century.
Any intelligent Remainers should be actively working for a hard Brexit.Hard Brexit now!

There there Brexling tears a river they'll make. Forget sunny uplands, here's have a cookie recipe instead. (Belgium chocolate I'm afraid)
HOW TO MAKE THE BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE EVER (HOW TO MAKE EASY COOKIES FROM SCRATCH)
Like I said, these cookies are crazy easy, however here are a few notes!
- Soften butter. If you are planning on making these, take the butter out of the fridge first thing in the morning so it’s ready to go when you need it!
- Measure the flour correctly. Be sure to use a measuring cup made for dry ingredients (NOT a pyrex liquid measuring cup). There has been some controversy on how to measure flour! I personally use the scoop and shake method and always have (gasp)! It’s easier and I have never had that method fail me! Many of you say that the only way to measure flour is to scoop it into the measuring cup and level with a knife. I say, measure it the way youalways do. Just make sure that the dough matches the consistency of the dough in the photos in this post.
- Use LOTS of chocolate chips. Do I really need to explain this?!
- DO NOT over-bake these chocolate chip cookies! I explain this more below, but these chocolate chip cookies will not look done when you pull them out of the oven, and that is GOOD.
