Court hears case on UK's pre-Brexit parliament shutdown
By EUobserver
The British Supreme Court has started hearings on the legality of a government suspension of parliament in the run-up to Brexit on 31 October, with a verdict due on Thursday or Friday. He would "wait and see what judges say" before deciding whether to recall MPs, UK prime minister Boris Johnson told the BBC on Monday amid concern he might use dirty tricks to force a no-deal exit.
