Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostEr, we know the High Court verdict.
I'd say illegal at the SC, on balance, although it will be interesting to hear their justification because legislation is the yardstick by which to judge illegality (e.g., improper purpose), so what is the made-up yardstick by which to judge political impropriety (noting that Parliament could've legislated against prorogation too, as with the NI Act)?Comment
