Supreme Court judge Lady Hale has become a glorious meme

Boris Johnson’s decision to suspend parliament earlier this month was unlawful, Supreme Court judge Lady Hale has declared.

Announcing the verdict reached by all 11 judges who heard the case, Supreme Court president and Baroness Lady Hale said:

The court is bound to conclude that the decision to advise Her Majesty to prorogue parliament was unlawful because it had the effect of frustrating or preventing the ability of parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification.
