Boris Johnson statement LIVE: Prime Minister clashes with MPs in Parliament following Supreme Court ruling

Boris Johnson has clashed with opposition MPs in the Commons as they rowed over the Supreme Court ruling and the government's stance on Brexit.

It comes after the PM challenged opposition parties to bring forward a no confidence vote against him as he pushed for a general election.

This followed heated scenes earlier in the chamber, when Geoffrey Cox told MPs that he believed the legal advice over prorogation was correct and the Government had acted in good faith.

MPs returned to the Commons at 11.30am today, following the bombshell legal ruling, which was handed down on Monday.
