Boris Johnson returns to New York early as Parliament reconvenes after Tuesday’s Supreme Court ruling. Eleven Supreme Court judges unanimously ruled the prorogation was “void and of no effect” adding “Parliament has not been prorogued”. However, Boris Johnson refuses to quit after Supreme Court ruling saying he disagrees with the decision but that he respects the independence of the judiciary . A senior government official said Boris Johnson phone the Queen after the Supreme Court ruled his prorogation of Parliament was unlawful and held a telephone call with his full cabinet lasting about 30 minutes to update them on the ruling.
