As oppostion parties expressed their fury. Suspending parliament is not acceptable. It is not on. The Prime Minister is smashing and grabbing on oui minister is smashing and grabbing on our democracy and force through a no deal brexit. The leader of the scottish conservatives, Ruth Davidson a vocal critic of borisjohnsons is now expected to quit tomorrow and in other news League One Football team, bolton wanderers, have announced theyve been saved, with their administrators securing the clubs sale to Football Ventures limited. And teenage environmental activist, greta thunberg, has arrived in new york after a 15 day, 3,000 mile voyage across the atlantic. And at 11 30, well be taking an in depth look at the papers with our reviewers, Political Editor of the sun on sunday, dave wooding, and former fleet street editor, eve pollard. Stay with us for that. Good evening. Borisjohnson has successfully secured the queens approval to suspend parliament for more than four weeks next month. To suspend parliament for more than four weeks next month. The current parliamentary session will now come to an end earlier than expected, shortly after mps return from their summer break. The move means mps wanting to block a no deal brexit on october 31st have even less time to do so. The Prime Minister insisted the decision was all about getting on with the uks future. But it has sparked fierce criticism from all sides. The labour Leaderjeremy Corbyn called it a smash and grab on our democracy. The speaker of the house of commons, john bercow, said it was a constitutional outrage. Heres our Political Editor laura kuenssberg. Protests at his door. Borisjohnsons plan to shut the gates of parliament for an extra week or so brought in thousands to whitehall tonight. Angry that debates wont take place. Borisjohnson has got to go mps will not be able to vote to stand in the Prime Ministers way. We are bringing forward a new legislative programme on crime, on hospitals, making sure we have the Education Funding that we need and there will be ample time on both sides of that crucial october the 17th summit, ample time in parliament for mps to debate the eu, to debate brexit and all the other issues. Ample time. But scores of mps are furious. Suspecting this is about one thing only, closing the commons for some extra days to silence objections to leaving the eu without a deal, and Senior Tories are part of the resistance. At a time of national crisis, Parliament Must be able to meet to hold the government to account, to represent our constituents, the electorate, up and down the country and it is profoundly undemocratic to shut parliament down to stop it doing its job. Suspending parliament is not acceptable, its not on. What the Prime Minister is doing is a sort of smash and grab on our democracy in order to force through a no deal exit from the European Union. What is he so afraid of . He is acting like some kind of tinpot dictator and it is frankly not acceptable and if mps dont stop it, it is no exaggeration and it is not hyperbole to say this is the day any semblance of uk parliamentary democracy absolutely dies. Even the speaker, who is meant to be impartial let his fury be shown. He said he had had no contact from the government but this move represents a constitutional outrage. He went on to say. It is not unusual for a new Prime Minister to close parliament for a short while to press reset, to announce a new programme at what they want to do. But it is intensely controversial to do it now because just as Boris Johnson is determined that we leave the eu at the end of october, even without a deal, so a huge group of mps is equally determined to try to stop him from doing that and by squeezing their time, the squeeze is their chances. Their time, he squeezes their chances. Are you ignoring parliament, mr walker . The government might say it is business as usual but some ministers seem to have been rather caught on the hop. We need to have a queens speech, we have a new Prime Minister and he needs a new legislative programme. There are plenty of questions to answer. A trio of those in the know disturbed the queens Summer Holiday at balmoral to seek the official approval. Are you trying to avoid scrutiny in parliament . Certainly not. Are you worried about a legal challenge . This is a proper constitutional procedure. Not exactly your standard august day. And get used to hearing this defence from the cabinet table. This is clearly a political attempt to stop debate on brexit and block mps from preventing us from leaving without a deal, is it not . It is certainly not. The Prime Minister is clear he wants to use a new parliamentary session in order to ensure that the peoples priorities are met. Do you expect people to believe this has nothing to do with brexit . It has everything to do with a new Prime Minister making sure the policies he had announced and on which he won his mandate are implemented. People outside westminster want a government that will make a difference and push change. That message would be as popular as a wet wednesday at the protest that sprang up in manchester, durham, liverpool and edinburgh after the announcement, even though, crucially for number ten, their allies from a different part of the uk are on board. The Prime Minister is entitled to go to her majesty the queen and seek a new queens speech, particularly at a new leader and new Prime Minister. He wants to set out his domestic agenda and i dont think there is anything unusual about that. Borisjohnson has never shied away from making people angry. He wants to go down in history as the Prime Minister who did what it took to get brexit done but whatever it takes could take him down as well. We can speak to our nick eardley, political correspondent, who is at westminster. Looking at the front pages and the reaction, this move from number 10 has caused a massive reaction, fury among Boris Johnsons opponents. Has caused a massive reaction, fury among Boris Johnsons opponentsm has. The government is going to continue to say this is normal, that it has the right to introduce its new policies. 0n the face of it, thatis new policies. 0n the face of it, that is absolutely true but doing it now, doing it for five weeks, that is absolutely true but doing it now, doing it forfive weeks, in that is absolutely true but doing it now, doing it for five weeks, in the run up for the brexit run up is different. This is not a normal situation and doing this now has caused huge controversy, almost like nothing we have seen over the Brexit Process over the last three years. Borisjohnson will continue to argue he is doing this for the simple reason he wants to curtail debate in parliament on a brexit because he is worried he will lose key votes. Tonight among anti no deal mps, they will continue to force his hand and turn up on tuesday when mps return to westminster and try the best to force a piece of legislation through that would stop Boris Johnson leaving the European Union without a deal at the end of october. The time they have to do it and the scope has been curtailed by this decision and it makes theirjob extremely hard. And what about the no confidence vote . And what about the no confidence vote . If it comes to that, how many conservatives would like that . At the moment, the short and simple a nswer the moment, the short and simple answer is not enough. There are conservatives moving in that direction but that could change somewhere down the line. The thinking about tory rebels is they wa nt to thinking about tory rebels is they want to do everything to stop a no deal but there is a limit to that and that limit is making Jeremy CorbynPrime Minister. They will not go intoa corbyn Prime Minister. They will not go into a situation to bring down the conservative government to be replaced by a radical labour one. For now, they are much more intent on pursuing that legislative route and trying to do something that binds borisjohnsons and trying to do something that binds Boris Johnsons hand. And trying to do something that binds borisjohnsons hand. Will they do it . There is a huge parliamentary battle to follow and if they do manage to find mr johnsons hands, what does that increase the likely hood of . And other general election. There is a clash going on between the executive, the government, desperate to meet brexit no matter what at the end of october, parliament are determined to stop a no deal brexit, and the public which has voted to leave the eu but who may think they need to be asked again at a general election or perhaps, perhaps, in another referendum. We have protests, petitions, threats of mps sitting in parliament, refusing to leave the chamber. 0ver1 million signatures saying do not provoke parliament. Proruoge. Signatures saying do not provoke parliament. Proruoge. A poll suggesting the percentage of the population that backed the proruoge action is a third or less. It is ha rd to action is a third or less. It is hard to tell how this will play with the public at large. Number 10 is taking the gamble it will get the sympathy of people who want to see brexit done and undetermined to leave the eu. They will say Boris Johnson is doing this for legitimate reasons and he has other priorities. 0pposition parties are convinced that the thousands of people you sought marching at westminster, many of whom still in Parliament Square, and practice across the uk, opposition parties think they represent the majority who would be furious at the idea that Boris Johnson is packing up mps forfive weeks so close to the brexit deadline. I was speaking to one mp in the process of trying to block no deal says he thinks they have underestimated and under calculated and it could change the tide. We do not know but what we do know is that there are two diametrically opposed views of mps who think they have a majority and tory rebels in the government and that will come to a head. The scottish conservative leader Ruth Davidson is said to be on the verge of resigning because of disagreements over borisjohnsons political choices. Those close to her say personal reasons are also behind her decision. Ruth davidson, whos been in the job for almost 8 years, has openly criticised the idea of a no deal brexit saying she could not support it. 0ur scotland editor sarah smith reports. Ruth davidson rode onto the political scene unlike any tory we had ever seen before. A working class gay woman who didnt seem to take herself too seriously. She appealed to voters other tories couldnt seem to reach. Declaring Ruth Davidson the duly elected leader. Becoming Scottish Party leader atjust 32, eight years ago, she led the tories to overtake labour to become the Principal Party of opposition in scotland. And win a total of 13 mps at the last general election, up from just one, crucial to keeping the tories in power. A passionate remainer, she clashed directly with Boris Johnson in the brexit debates in 2016. You are being asked to make a decision that is irreversible. We cant change it. We wake up on friday, we dont like it and we are being sold it on a lie. And its not good enough. You deserve the truth. Last year she had a baby, finn, with her partner,jen. And she became the first serving party leader in britain to take maternity leave. The pressures of being a new mother have contributed to her decision to quit. Back at work in time for the tory leadership contest, she did not support borisjohnson, backing sajid javid instead. Now this is a phrase that i have not used very often, but he is the man for me. 0ffering only lukewarm support for mrjohnson after he won. He wasnt my choice for a leader. I didnt vote for him, however i willjudge his premiership by his actions in office. It was never going to be easy working with a Prime Minister with whom she fundamentally disagrees. Now it seems she has decided to walk away. The Welsh Assembly will now be recalled early from their summer break, following todays news. First minister Mark Drakeford said the constitutional crisis which now faces wales meant Assembly Members needed to be recalled. Their recess was due to end on 17 september, but the assembly will now hold a day of debate on 5th september. The queen has agreed to the governments decision to suspend Parliament Days after mps return to work, and a matter of weeks before the brexit deadline. These are the key dates to look out for parliament will return from recess on the third of september, and will be prorogued or suspended a week later, at some stage no earlier than the 9th september and no later than the 12th of september. Thats expected to make way for Boris Johnsons new administration to hold a queens speech, laying out the governments future plans, on 14th october. Later that week there will be a crunch Eu Council Summit the last one before brexit which could provide the last opportunity for the Prime Minister to avoid a no deal brexit. If no agreement is reached in brussels and mps opposed to no deal dont have time to pass any laws that could stop the Prime Minister taking the uk out of the eu without a deal, brexit will still happen on the 31st of october. The decision to suspend Parliament Earlier came as a surprise. So how exactly does this highly controversial move work in practice, and can anyone stop it . Our home editor mark easton takes a look. Its a matter of time. By announcing a queens speech to set out its plans, the government makes it harder for parliament to stop the clock as the country heads towards brexit day on october the 31st with or without a deal. I met constitutional expert hannah white on Parliament Square where else . With three questions. First, what is happening . What it means practically is that mps and peers will have significantly less time to talk about anything relating to brexit or otherwise, before the article 50 deadline is reached at the end of october. A pause. And her majesty the queen. The queens speech ceremony emphasises the tensions between her majestys government and an independent parliament. Slamming and banging of doors a reminder of a sometimes fractious relationship that today sees government ministers using audacious and legitimate tactics to curb the powers of mps and peers. So how does it work . What we are seeing now is a real showdown between parliament and government. And what the government has done is quite clever, because it really constrains the Time Available to people in parliament who want to legislate to try to prevent no deal. If they dont get legislation through in the next couple of weeks, it will fall, they will have to try again in october, starting from scratch, and getting a bill through the commons and the lords in the limited Time Available, i think, is going to be very difficult. Stop the coup with their options are narrowing, those who oppose a no deal brexit, or even a brexit at all, are anxiously discussing tactics. But it may be they have already missed their chance to delay or stop britains departure from the eu. So question number three can it be stopped . I think probably there are three options now. The first is to legislate, but as we discussed, thats really difficult in terms of the timing. The second is to try to bring the courts into it. But we are really in uncharted territory as to what view the courts would take of a challenge at this point. So third is to try a no confidence vote in the Prime Minister, which can lead to an election. But the thing to bear in mind there, setting the election is up to the Prime Minister and that could be after brexit has happened on the 31st of october. Both sides in this dispute claim their way is the truly democratic way. When the dust finally settles on these extraordinary political events, who, if anyone, will be honoured with a statue here at the epicentre of our democracy . Mark easton, bbc news, Parliament Square. Earlier, i discussed the ins and out of suspending parliament with Catherine Barnard, professor of law at cambridge university, whos in Plettenberg Bay in south africa, and gavin phillipson, professor of law at bristol university. Ifirst asked Catherine Barnard what the chances of passing a law to stop a no deal brexit were now . We dont quite know when parliament will be promoted that mac pro rogue. It is theoretically possible to get a bill through quickly but remember what that bill will say . It will say there is to be no no deal brexit but there is to be no no deal brexit but the default position is that we leave on october 31 and the eu would have to agree to it. The bill would have to agree to it. The bill would have to agree to it. The bill would have to say that borisjohnson is required to answer ask for an extension. That is the only thing he can do. 0rthe extension. That is the only thing he can do. Or the bill will ask to revoke article 50. What about the second of those options that we saw in that piece . The idea of the courts stepping in . How complex is that and could it work . It would enter uncharted territory. There hasnt been a challenge ever challenging prorogation. Her lawyers have lodged papers this evening in the high court to begin the challenge and that is the same team that brought the miller case that was successful in the supreme court. But this is a much more complex and difficult case. In the end it was a simple case in a way saying that the government does not have the power to trigger article 50. This does not dispute the existence of the power to request prorogation. The argument will be that that power has been misused and that will take the courts into New Territory to make a ruling on that and that will be fascinating to see develop. How quickly can the court set and how many sessions would go for . This would have to be expedited before the end. May be an injunction could be sought but it is due to happen between the ninth and 12th of september. So the courts would need to act with remarkable speed. Catherine, the other option is that neither of those two options were, opponents of no deal could try to call a vote of no confidence. Even if that was passed, and that is a big if, does borisjohnson have to step down . This is contested. He has 14 step down . This is contested. He has 1a days and in that 1a days he could be able to change people s minds or we could look to see if there would be an alternative government led perhaps byjeremy be an alternative government led perhaps by Jeremy Corbyn be an alternative government led perhaps byJeremy Corbyn or perhaps by ken clarke. 0r perhaps byJeremy Corbyn or perhaps by ken clarke. Or if not a general election will have to be called the crucial question is the timing of the general election. It is the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, the general election. It is the Prime Minister, borisjohnson, who would propose to the crown the date of the election. The risk is if a vote of no confidence does not take place until the few days in october, a general election will be after 0ctober a general election will be after october 31 and the uk will have left the eu by default. Gavin, speak up on that. Even if within the 1a day period an alternative interim government is formed, led byJeremy Corbyn or another senior parliamentary figure, can the end of 0ctober date be somehow delayed while a general election is called . If, and it would only happen if there was an alternative government that look as if it could command the confidence of the common steady so afterwards, if borisjohnson confidence of the common steady so afterwards, if Boris Johnson lost a vote of confidence, a new government could be formed and should be appointed by the queen if it can command the confidence of the commons. Once appointed it would be the government and could then go immediately to brussels and request an extension to article 50. But if that only happens if a new government is appointed by the queen and that only happens if it is has a good chance of commending confidence. If that does not happen, a general election is automatically triggered after 14 days to the timing of that election is under the control of the Prime Minister and he can schedule it to happen after we leave the European Union. I want to comment on the repeated statements by various governmental people that this is perfectly normal and parliament is always corroded in autumn. It is worth pointing out that the house of commons Research Shows that in the last 40 Years Parliament has never been prorated for longer than three weeks, usually for longer than three weeks, usually for one week or less. The last three prorogation is was six days, five days and three days. So five weeks is unprecedented in the last 40 years. And tonight a legal challenge has been launched by the businesswoman, gina miller, who won a momentous victory in 2017 against the government and its approach to brexit. This time shes trying to stop Boris Johnson suspending parliament. More than 900,000 people have signed an online petition today calling for the decision to suspend parliament to be reversed. Gina spoke to us earlier and describe Boris Johnson gina spoke to us earlier and describe borisjohnson s decision as cowardly. What borisjohnson is doing is he is hijacking the queens prerogative power and using it for, if you like, unscrupulous means. And i think that is what is so shocking about this, is that it is a very cowardly way of using these powers and, if you like, constitutional convention. You know, our unwritten constitution is a bit like a gentlemans agreement. And you have to say its not being used in that manner. What do voters make of todays dramatic news . Bolton wanderers has completed a takeover deal tonight which will save it from collapse. Administrators announced that the company Football Ventures had bought the league one club, which has been struggling financially for months. Bury fc was expelled from the English Football League yesterday, after a takeover bid fell through. Heres our sports editor, dan roan. Theyre the fans left without a club. With burys hopes of League Survival washed away, they gathered at gigg lane today to try and take stock of the news. 134 years of history brought to an end, a community in shock. Its a bereavement isnt it . Youre losing part of your family. I have a sister who hasjust been diagnosed with alzheimers. I used to bring her here, and thats the only thing that she could really accept. Theres none of that now. Yesterday, there had been hope the club could be saved, volunteers getting the stadium ready for the weekend. But their efforts were in vain as prospective buyers backed out just before a deadline. Anxiety turning to anger towards the clubs owner as pleas for a last ditch reprieve came to nothing. All we want dale out said we want dale out burys captain neil danns now finds himself without a club. Today in a cafe next to gigg lane, the midfielder told me the crisis must serve as a wake up call for footballs authorities. When a club exchanges hands i think it should be a lot more stringent. It should be looked into a lot more and theres a lot of people that need to have a look at themselves. Throughout the game, notjust here . Yeah, throughout the game. You see it happening at other clubs now and i think its something that needs to be revised. Today, the woman forced to finally pull the plug on bury admitted the leagues rules on new owners would now be reviewed. This is a devastating situation. I accept that we need to look and we need to learn lessons from it. But do you accept youve failed . What i accept it as that we operated within the regulations that are there laid down and we will go back and discuss those with the clubs and look at it. But tonight, some good news. Bolton wanderers avoiding liquidation and expulsion after a takeover deal was finally completed. Absolutely amazing. Just chuffed to bits. Relief. He can sleep at night now. Hes not been able to sleep the last couple of nights. The fact that this club has been saved tonight will be a source of huge relief. But given burys fate just a few miles away at a time when the top of the sport has never been richer, its unlikely to stem mounting concern that something is fundamentally wrong with club finances and football governance. Dan roan, bbc news, bolton. The 16 year old swedish activist greta thunberg, has arrived in new york after a two week journey across the atlantic in a yacht. Shes taking part in a un Climate Summit and refused to fly because of its environmental impact. She also said the amazon fires were a clear sign that we needed to stop destroying nature. But have a look now at the weather. We are moving into a changeable speu we are moving into a changeable spell of weather, particularly for the north west of the uk. It will be quite wet at times they. That extreme heat, the record heat we had over the Bank Holiday Weekend and into tuesday has been pushed away into tuesday has been pushed away into Continental Europe and instead ourcoming into Continental Europe and instead our coming from the atlantic those weather fronts brought some our coming from the atlantic those weatherfronts brought some rain early on and this area of low pressure approaching the north west will bring Winter Weather on thursday. It will be a cooler start on thursday and for much of england and wales dry and sunny with cloud over maybe a couple of showers in the west. Closer to the low pressure we will see the bulk of the show is coming into Northern Ireland and particularly scotland. Temperatures in the central belt a 17 degrees to a high of 24, 25 in the south east of england. We still have an area of low pressure then drifting to the north of scotland but following the weather fronts there all the way back into the mid atlantic, little ripples, waves and the weather front will enhance the rainfall and we have a conveyor of cloud and rain stretching across Northern Ireland and much of scotland for a while and over the irish sea into North Western parts of england on friday. May be a few showers across wales. Midlands towards the south east should be dry, sunny and warm. Further north not only do we have the rain could be a bit blowy at times as well. That rain will still be around through friday night and into saturday. The rainfall really adding up over the hills of galloway, up to four inches of rain. You can see how the rain banned pivot overnight into saturday clearing the way for Northern Ireland. Rain pushes into wales, western parts of england still dry. Eastern england the temperatures are in the mid 20s. The weather front, anchored by the low pressure will push east in the rain petering out as it does so. 0nce push east in the rain petering out as it does so. Once it clears away it opens the door to polar maritime airso this is it opens the door to polar maritime air so this is cooler air, fresh area and it will bring some sunshine and showers. And really drop the temperatures we will start to see that on saturday, more widely on sunday. A lot of showers for the northern half of the uk and further south there will be a few showers and temperatures may reach 20 degrees in london but only 15 for edinburgh and belfast. It really will feel quite chilly and overnight as the showers fade away these are the minimum temperatures on sunday night. In mind, recent lights have been no lower than 18 degrees. Some places could be four or five in towns and cities. Still on the cool side of that area of High Pressure so we have the cooler air to start with on monday but this time there are fewer showers. Most places will be dry was sunshine and around the top of the High Pressure we start to enter this atlantic air again that will bring in more cloud to scotland, Northern Ireland and maybe a few spots of rain. Those temperatures struggling16 a few spots of rain. Those temperatures struggling 16 21
