There can be three reasons for requiring the suspension of Parliament.
1. Prorogue without a reason
2. Prorogue for non-Brexit reason
3. Prorogue for Brexit reason.
All are problematic.
1. The Prime Minister goes to see the Queen in Scotland and asks, for no good reason, that during a major crisis, Parliament doesn't need to side for five weeks. Really?
2. There was some other, more important reason than the national Brexit crisis that required Parliament to be shut down.
3. The Prime Minister complains that Parliament keeps doing it's job to scrutinise and pass laws to stop him executing a policy that will damage the country?
This morning Johnson denied lying to the Queen, in which case maybe he would like to sign an affidavit saying the same, on the pain of perjury? If he is telling the truth, no reason not to sign a legal document saying that?
The Operation Yellowhammer document that Michael Gove said was out of date an inaccurate was in fact up to date and accurate. So, will he apologies.
The part redacted says that in the event of no deal, two oil refineries will close and lead to major fuel shortages in their areas.
No biggie.
In all this, nothing is mentioned about the actual benefits, just more about fuel, energy, food, medicine shortages. And planning for this costing £6 billion. Now, wondering where those sunlit uplands are, and when the actual Brexit Bonus will be paid?
