172: The Rebel Alliance (And Everyone Else) Takes On Boris

Westminster returned from it’s summer break and with it the “Rebel Alliance” sought to stop no-deal Brexit from being possible for the new PM Boris Johnson. Whether it was Dominic Cummings or Johnson in a latex mask, the idea to prorogue parliament wasn’t received kindly, not least on Johnson’s own benches in the Commons. HuffPost UK Politics and Chris White from Newingtons takes you through what happened and what’s to come next as Brexit comes ever closer to passing.
