The Prorogation of Parliament by Boris Johnson was unlawful.....judgement just made unanimously by the U.K. Supreme Court. They have ruled that he acted illegally and the advice he gave The Queen to prorogue was also illegal.

He has lied to the Crown and got caught by the highest court in the land. As a PM, he cannot and should not stand. At best, he must resign with immediate effect - no waiting to come home from New York. At worse, beheading in the Tower, although really he must serve a considerable prison sentence.
So, what next?
Parliament must form a government of unity in a national crisis and remain sitting until it is over.
As for me... YAY! I'm getting to employ my degree studies in the real world!

I can’t see him resigning voluntarily!
Boris like Trumpty dumpty cares not a jot for rules or traditions, he sees himself as a populist dictator and entitled to make up his own ethics as he goes along.
We live in the age of the entitles spoiled brat and BJ is the purest personification of exactly that.
Why then is this not Treason?

Good question.....!
@Marionville Well judging from the fiasco this morning Bojo is trying to make the attorney General a Patsy, but Darth Cox is having none of it, and every other solicitor and barrister who hold a seat in the House of commons is rallying behind him.
However despite the fact that it is generally agreed that any prime minister or even MINISTER would be honour bound to resign not only from cabinet but as an MP under such circumstances Blowhole Jo is hanging in there, and though currently skulking golem like in No10 he is expected to bluster his way in the house this afternoon.
@LenHazell53 BoJo will face The House this afternoon....so I’m sure there will be more bluster and defiance from him...not expecting any apologies or humility.
@Marionville in the words of Good Queen Victoria (quoting her predecessor Charles the I) , who the Johnson boy is distantly related to
"Never apologise, Never explain"
@LenHazell53 He certainly takes that to heart!
