Coup, Coup my coup-a-choo

When is a coup not a coup?

Would we know?

Or care?

Parliament has been suspended for 34 days, next Tuesday's Supreme Court ruling notwithstanding.

This stops any proper scrutiny of Government at this crucial time.

Today's Sunday Torygraph leads with the claim that Brexit has seen "them" take on the establishment and win.

The Torygraph. Boris Johnson. Michael Gove. Aron Banks. JRM. Took on the establishment and won.

What is the establishment, if not them?

In baseball legend, Babe Ruth was to have pointed to the furthest boundary of the ballpark during a World Series, indicating where he would slug the next pitch to.

He slugged it.

Now Dominic Cummings has revealed Number 10's next steps, more prorogation.

If Johnson loses on Tuesday, he will ask the Queen to Prorogue again. And if the appeal wins, when the current 34 days runs out, Parliament will be prorogued again until November 6th.

Johnson and Cummings are no Babe Ruth. This seems a little dumb.

Because if the current proroguation is illegal, then a second one would too as it would have the same intent as the first.

So, it might come down to the Queen having to decide whether to back the Government or Parliament. And that is a crisis.

And a potential coup.
