The now world-renowned British Speaker John Bercow was again allowed to start a day in Parliament the day after the British Supreme Court ruled that the government's decision to shut down Parliament was unlawful.

He explained to the Assembly that all the letters in the minutes which mentioned that Parliament had closed down should be deleted and that the lower house should be officially treated as never closed.

Went to offensive

Then began, to say the least, a fierce hearing by the government's justice chancellors and about his advice to the government that the shutdown of Parliament was legal.

- We do not agree with the decision reached by the Supreme Court, but the government respects it, says Chancellor Geoffrey Cox in Parliament.

While the conservative politician failed to respond directly to the questions surrounding his legal advice to the government, he also chose to question Parliament's actions. As many media outlets in the UK had speculated before Parliament's meeting on Wednesday, the government chose an offensive stance during the hearing.

- This Parliament is a shame, Geoffrey Cox shrugs on one occasion.

Boris Johnson is expected to speak

He is developing his thoughts on the British lower house, with Parliament saying no to a recent election on two occasions. And the inability to vote through Brexit has led to the failure of British voters.

The hearing of the Chancellor is only one of the scheduled hearings, but lasted for over an hour. Several other hearings follow during the day. Only after they are ready is Prime Minister Boris Johnson expected to comment on how he plans to continue working on Brexit and Parliament's work.

Many speculate that Johnson will run as usual with the goal of Britain leaving the EU on October 31 - but it is also speculated that he may be trying to call for a new election again. Something that Geoffrey Cox may have flagged for during his hearing already.
