The Supreme Court has ruled that Boris Johnson's decision to prorogue Parliament was unlawful, turning a page on the country鈥檚 constitution. The Supreme Court president Lady Hale said "the effect on the fundamentals of democracy was extreme."

The Prime Minister responded that he "strongly disagrees" with the ruling but will "respect" it.

So is British democracy at a crossroads? In an extended edition of the Briefing Room, David Aaronovitch asks who is running Britain and is it now time to have a written constitution.
