I really don’t know if I am following a logical thought process, but it has occurred to me that, in light of the judgement today, the position of the monarchy might have been damaged.
If the monarch’s Royal Prerogative (to prorogue parliament) can be overturned by the judiciary, it’s role is superfluous and anachronistic. Would we be better served with a head of state who has a legal ability to push back against unlawful actions?
