Sir John Major joins court case to stop Parliament suspension
Mr Johnson has said the government will hold extra talks with the EU, with negotiators meeting twice a week in the run-up to the EU summit on 17 and 18 October.
Mr Johnson has also dismissed suggestions that suspending Parliament is motivated by a desire to force through a no deal, calling them"completely untrue". "In view of the imminence of the prorogation - and to avoid duplication of effort, and taking up the court's time through repetition - I intend to seek the court's permission to intervene in the claim already initiated by Gina Miller, rather than to commence separate proceedings."
