Daily Mail: The Queen AGREES to suspend Parliament: Boris Johnson's Brexit gamble gives Remainer rabble just THREE DAYS to spring their plot to stop No Deal
* Boris Johnson will suspend Parliament until October 14 when a new Queen's Speech will take place
* The Prime Minister proposed his plan to the Queen this morning and it was formally approved this afternoon
* Jacob Rees-Mogg, Commons Leader, flew to Balmoral in Scotland to present plan to monarch in person
* Move means the House of Commons will be suspended at some point in the week beginning September 9
* Proroguing Parliament will reduce the amount of time available for MPs to try to stop No Deal Brexit
* Mr Johnson's decision increases the possibility of Jeremy Corbyn calling a no confidence vote next week
* If the PM is defeated in such a vote it would likely lead to a snap general election in October or November
* It has sparked a political firestorm with the Prime Minister accused of attempting to sideline Parliament
* Furious MPs have savaged Mr Johnson and accused him of 'behaving like a tinpot dictator' over Brexit
* Mr Corbyn said suspending Parliament was an 'outrage' and he has written to the Queen to demand a meeting
* Commons Speaker John Bercow joined howls of anger and said decision 'represents a constitutional outrage'
* But government has insisted the Queen's Speech plan is a regular procedural step for a new administration
The Queen has agreed to Boris Johnson's plan to suspend Parliament as the Prime Minister tries to stop MPs from blocking the UK leaving the EU on October 31.
Mr Johnson outlined his proposal to the monarch in a phone call this morning while Jacob Rees-Mogg, the Commons Leader, flew to Balmoral Castle in Scotland to present it to her in person.
The Queen then formally approved the order this afternoon as Mr Johnson laid down the gauntlet to Jeremy Corbyn and the 'Remain Alliance'.
