Activists Gather Outside Supreme Court As Prorogation Appeals Begin
A protester wears an Incredible Hulk costume and Boris Johnson wig as activists calling for the reopening of Parliament demonstrate outside the Supreme Court in London, England, on September 17, 2019. Mr Johnson at the weekend likened himself to the superhero character in his approach to Brexit. A panel of 11 judges at the Supreme Court today began hearing arguments in two appeals of rulings over the legality of the current prorogation of Parliament. The prorogation has been ruled unlawful by the Court of Session in Edinburgh, where it was declared that prorogation had been improperly motivated by Prime Minister Boris Johnson's desire to evade MPs' scrutiny of his Brexit dealings with the EU. The High Court in London, however, ruled that the issue was not one for the courts to decide upon. The hearing is expected to last for much of the rest of the week. (Photo by David Cliff/NurPhoto)
