lorna gordon, bbc news, at the court of session in edinburgh. our scotland editor, sarah smith, is at the court of session in edinburgh for us. first of all, what is the significance of what has happened today? what these judges have said is that they have not explicitly come out and said in terms that they think borisjohnson come out and said in terms that they think boris johnson either lied come out and said in terms that they think borisjohnson either lied to the queen or try to mislead voters, but in essence, hidden in the complex legaljargon, but in essence, hidden in the complex legal jargon, that but in essence, hidden in the complex legaljargon, that is exactly what they are saying. the premise has repeatedly told us that it is perfectly normal for a new government to prorogue parliament and he wasn‘t trying to undermine democracy by doing so. these three judges at scotland‘s highest civil court have essentially said they do not believe him and they think he is trying to undermine parliamentary scrutiny on the way, as the uk is prep

first, edinburgh's court of session accused boris johnson first, edinburgh's court of session accused borisjohnson of changes tiny parliament are misleading the queen. here's our legal affairs correspondent, clive coleman. constitutional law, dry and dusty? not a bit of it. a prime minister stands accused of misleading the monarch and undermining parliament. the supreme court will have to resolve two dramatically contradictory judgments. scotland's higher civil court ruled that the prime minister's advice to the queen to prorogue was motivated by the improper purpose of stymieing or frustrating parliament during critical weeks before brexit, but the high court in london ruled that proroguing was a political matter and there were no legal standards against which a court could judge it. so the supreme court will have to decide firstly whether proroguing or suspending parliament is a matter for the courts and if it is, they'll have to give a ruling as to whether that advice given by borisjohnson to the queen was unlawful or not, and that will determine whether parliament can sit again in

let's talk to our scotland editor sarah smith at the court of session in edinburgh. some more detail about this highly significant ruling that was passed by thejudges significant ruling that was passed by the judges today. yes, fascinating if you look at exactly what the three judges at the court of session actually had to say in their ruling because while it does not explicitly say that boris johnson has either lied to the queen or try to mislead voters, if you drill down into the complex legal jargon, you will say that is pretty much exactly what they are saying. borisjohnson has always maintained it is perfectly normal for a new government to prorogue parliament and that it is nonsense to suggest he is trying to undermine democracy. today, the three judges he is trying to undermine democracy. today, the threejudges in he is trying to undermine democracy. today, the three judges in the court of session basically said that they did not believe him and that they think he is trying to avoid parliamentary scrutiny in the run—up to the uk leaving the eu. they were una

a panel of three judges in edinburgh five weeks was unlawful. a panel of threejudges in edinburgh found in favour of the group of mps and peers who were challenging the move. the defence secretary was asked about the move a short while ago. it was ruled it was unlawful to prorogue parliament. i wanted to get your reaction to that and do you now believe they should reconvene parliament? i saw the ruling this morning. the government has said it will appeal to the supreme court. i am not going to comment on and are legislative process. then wallace saying the government won't be doing until the supreme court case. much more on that coming up with the news at one, first good afternoon. to exit tropical weather systems have taken control of our weather for weather systems have taken control of our weatherfor much weather systems have taken control of our weather for much of this week. today, we are dealing with the re m na nts of week. today, we are dealing with the remnants of what was hurricane dorian. it is making for a windy day. certainly not a

welcome to ouch: storytelling live at the edinburgh festival fringe! applause ijust i just turned 42, ijust turned 42, a month ago. i am enjoying being in my 40s, ifeel good for it. i don't do birthday parties though. i didn't even have a 40th. my parties though. i didn't even have a aoth. my mates, they took me to see guns and roses live, also they told me anyway. we could have just gone to their houses and put the live album on, sarge mesic —— charge me six quetiapine for three hours. not as busy as you would have thought this guns and roses concert, not as popular as they were? it sounds a bit weird, there is a cat, but never mind. we have a series of storytellers today who each have a disability or mental health difficulty. some of these guys never have been on stage before. the theme this year is "lost and found" and we have let the guys interpret that however they want to. the only criteria is that the stories are all true. so let me ask you, are you ready for your first storyteller of the show? yes! what i want is a lot of love, support for

now, the court in edinburgh has ruled, no, thati5 court in edinburgh has ruled, no, that is unlawful. although mp5 are demanding that parliament is recalled forthwith, i think there is 110w recalled forthwith, i think there is now going to be an appeal which will be heard, it is understood on tuesday. why that matters is because time is moving on. if the appeal is heard on tuesday, we will already be into the party conference 5ea5on. heard on tuesday, we will already be into the party conference season. in other words, it may be too late by then to recall parliament. so how then to recall parliament. so how the legal system response to this ruling is absolutely pivotal in term5 ruling is absolutely pivotal in terms of the timetable. becau5e ruling is absolutely pivotal in terms of the timetable. because it seems if we get to tuesday and parliament has not been recalled by then, mp5 may have to carry on with then, mp5 may have to carry on with the party conference 5ea5on, even though there were 5ugge5tion5 if parliament had been sitting, they would have cancelled it. but another way of

and in about an hourfrom glasgow and edinburgh and in about an hour from now glasgow and edinburgh and in about an hourfrom now there glasgow and edinburgh and in about an hour from now there will be a whole wave of departures to nairobi, abu dhabi, those will begin and then loads of american flights will be rounded and they will not be coming from new york, boston, toronto and some of the flights from miami and los angeles and that is simply nothing to do with a strike because pilots cannot strike while they are abroad. they are simply running out of space to put the ba planes at heathrow. so what are the options for passengers affected? everybody should have been told two weeks ago that their flight was cancelled. thousands of people were told that their flights were cancelled and then they were reinstated, which annoyed a lot of people. yes, you can geta annoyed a lot of people. yes, you can get a refund, rebook, but an awful lot of people have contacted me to say that the obvious like they could be on is on the easyjet from gatwick because ba competes directly with easyjet, and ba

lorna gordon, bbc news, at the court of session in edinburgh. our legal correspondent clive coleman is here. what does this mean, fundamentally? what does this mean, fundamentally? what it means is that the suspension of parliament, the prorogation of parliament was unlawful and because it was obtained by way of an unlawful purpose, and improper purpose, the court in scotland called it, so the advice given by borisjohnson to the queen, which is at the center of now three legal challenges, that that, in the scottish court, which is a higher court than the court that heard it here in london, in england and wales, and this is an appeal court, that ruling remains. what is interesting is that the government did not seek to suspend that ruling, pending the appeal to the supreme court, so parliament is effectively prorogued. how it could reconstitute itself is an interesting question and we are in uncharted waters. the speakers office said it was a matter for the government. but parliament, effectively, is now not pirogue. we have had some of the reaso

but we should also focus on edinburgh. in edinburgh, politicians from a number of parties are asking scotland's highest civil court to rule that borisjohnson acted illegally and unconstitutionally by proroguing parliament. remember, when the suspension of parliament was announced last week, senior government ministers denied it was to prevent mps intervening on a no—deal brexit. here are two examples. the prime minister is going to bring forward a new queen's speech and i will reflect the priorities we have asa will reflect the priorities we have as a government and let the country has as well. there will be lots of time to debate before the 31st of october and parliament will be sitting then and it will have whatever emotions we want. there prompted plenty of scepticism. the speaker of the house of commons. today, in the court in edinburgh, we heard that the prime minister approved plans to prorogue parliament on the 15th august — two weeks before the move became public. and well before number 10 responded had describ

before they arrive, look at these temperatures. 24 cardiff, 25 london, 22 edinburgh. it will feel warm in that sunshine. further changes in the picture as we head through the rest of the weekend. the weather front eventually will stagger its way across the uk, showers or thunderstorms initially working in but then a more potent band of rain will work into the west as we go on into the night. from there on sunday, the rain will push northwards and eastwards, a degree of uncertainty about how far north it will get but the best chance of staying dry will be across the far north—east of the uk. temperatures generally down, around 19 celsius towards parts of wales and south—west england 18 degrees. enter next week, low pressure in charge. that will bring spells of heavy rain and spells of strong rain. temperatures will continue to slide into next week, highs of around 15 degrees in edinburgh as we get towards the middle of the week. heavy rain around at times too. that 00:27:41,860 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 is your weather. hello, you're watching afternoon live — i'm

the university of edinburgh has found itself in the firing line after rolling out his red carpet for a so-called racism conference that has burned white people from asking questions during a q. and a. we will therefore not be given the microphone to by people during the q. nace not because we don't think why people have anything to offer to the discussion but because we want to amplify the voices of people of color if you know white person with a question piece share it with a member of the community all our speakers after the panel discussion. the event was organized by a group called the resisting whiteness collective the organizers say their aim is to raise awareness about the importance of anti racist actions in the u.k. the hosts of the event however have created 2 separate rooms called safe spaces for those who could feel overwhelmed or uncomfortable as one of them barring white people from even entering and bring inversed expressed concern over certain aspects before the event including the safe rooms the universities officials claim the organizers have started reviewing that

let's go back to john in edinburgh ok let's work under the assumption that brags that occur as a result even if it's on october 31st or january 31st of next year it's happened outside tahrir supposition right here there's a lot of talk here that the you know we the u.k. will drift into the u.s. or bit because we have people like secretary of state mike pompei i just essentially drooling over the possibility of a new trade agreement with the u.k. which of course will have all those political attachments to it when they deal with foreign policy i mean is this something that's going to happen because i think a lot of people on both sides of this issue say britain can't stand alone it's going to have to choose one side is that really an outcome that a lot of people that voted in the referendum are interested in seeing happen go ahead john. no i don't think it is and i think that's why there was a lot of opposition over into boris johnson's attempt to root through you know direction because of the trump ministration you know the trouble michigan has been in both antipathy towards multilatera

our scotland correspondent lorna gordon is in edinburgh. yes, their lawyer, aidan o'neill qc, this morning claimed the uk government was showing breathtaking contempt for the constitution in suspending and probing parliament in this way, likening it to autocratic rule. he said the government wasn't stacking the cards, it was taking the deck. he argued this wasn't politics as usual, it was rather an attempt to upset the balance of power between the executive and the legislature, an attempt, he said, by the prime minister to roll back history in favour of some divine right. we have a prime minister who is seeking to hold office without accountability, it would seem, the better to use power without responsibility. that is not a situation which this court can permit. well, the prime minister, the court was told, declined a request to submita was told, declined a request to submit a sworn statement to court, but government documents submitted here at the court of session this morning showed that in one document, the prime minister is said to hav
