Boris and the Tories, didn't close Parliament. Boris did, against the wishes of quite a lot of the Conservative Party MPs.

Yes, the UKSC was the appropriate venue to adjudicate this, and if you say they dont have the authority, you're saying there's no constraint on the PM doing anything he liked, irrespective of law.

And yes, given (b).

@firefall Ok Boris did but he represents the Tories and it was the TOry privey council that advised the Queen and the Tory Attornt Genral who gave the legal advice

Yes I think so too as the UKSC was completly indpendant and let both sides not stray away from the reason they were there for.

@milkymum1 that was part of the UKSC decision, that Boris did not represent the Tories in Parliament without seeking their vote and approval, or so I understood it.
