3 Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP 26-9-2019
4 Parliamentary. House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA.

7 Boris,
8 in my view the 11 judges had it wrong and obviously it will in the end be your decision
9 what you will do or not. However, you might just consider what I am writing about.
10 .
11 You may be aware that the Commonwealth of Australia has COMPULSORY voting, and yet I
12 took on all State and Federal Governments and succeeded in both appeals on 19 July 2006,
13 (representing myself) unchallenged on constitutional grounds. Which may underline that if one
14 does once homework one can succeed regardless of the odds stacked against you.
15 .
16 It is not for me to get involved in the BREXIT issue as I have no particular view about it. MY
17 real concern is that at least in my view all lawyers including the judges failed to be aware what is
18 constitutionally relevant and applicable. As a CONSTITUTIONALIST I hold it is my obligation
19 to make others aware of my views. If I held you acted against the (unwritten) constitution of the
20 UK I certainly would have expressed this. However, in my view the British Parliament has itself
21 legislated that the Monarch can prorogue the Parliament as the Monarch pleases, even without
22 that a Prime Minister is involved in that.
23
24 While the Supreme Court related to the separation of powers it seems to fail to make clear that
25 the branches are all headed by the Monarch. Also as the court acknowledged the Monarch is
26 advised by the Privy Council as such regardless of whatever advice you may have given the
27 Court essentially overruled the advise of the Privy council, this even so it in my view has no
28 justiciable cause to do so.
29 What appears to me is that the UKSC is in a grab of judicial powers and violate the legal
30 principles of the Westminster system the UK Parliament itself has implemented.
31
32 I admit that as to the Brexit issue I have only limited information about it. However, if the
33 parliament legislated that you require an extension rather then a NO DEAL but the EU refuses an
34 extension then no matter what the British Parliament legislate it cannot overrule the EU.
35
36 The Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 (UK) is a British Act and as such
37 considering the decision of Aggregate Industries UK Ltd., R (on the application of) v English
38 Nature and & Anor [2002] EWHC 908 (Admin) (24th April, 2002) and Judgments - Mark
39 (Respondent) v. Mark (Appellant), OPINIONS, OF THE LORDS OF APPEAL for judgment
40 IN THE CAUSE, SESSION 2005-06 [2005] UKHL 42 on appeal from: [2003] EWCA Civ 168
41 It appears that the The European Convention for the protection of Human Rights and
42 Fundamental Freedoms (“the ECHR”) albeit not overriding constitutional law, is
43 complimentary to British (constitution) law, as the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution
44 Act 1900 (UK) is.

2 Obviously what needs to be addressed, well in my uninformed views, that what will be the
3 rule where the UK leaves the EU as to the EU overriding decisions prior to the Brexit? Will
4 the British Parliament nevertheless legislate that the EU past rulings remain applicable
5 unless and until the British Parliament decides otherwise?
6 An example, as I assume, of legal issues confronting the UK!

8 PART I
9 PRELIMINARY
10 Citation.
11 1. This Constitution may be cited as the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore.
12

15 (1) Subject to this Article and Article 8, the provisions of this Constitution may be
16 amended by a law enacted by the Legislature.
17 (2) A Bill seeking to amend any provision in this Constitution shall not be passed by
18 Parliament unless it has been supported on Second and Third Readings by the votes of not

20 Article 39 (1) (a).
21 16/84.

34 total number of votes cast by the electors registered under the Parliamentary Elections Act.
35 END QUOTE
36 QUOTE
37 Part VA;
38
39 "existing law" means any law having effect as part of the law of Singapore immediately
40 before the commencement of this Constitution;
41 END QUOTE
42 QUOTE
43
44 "law" includes written law and any legislation of the United Kingdom or other enactment
45 or instrument whatsoever which is in operation in Singapore and the common law in so far
1 as it is in operation in Singapore and any custom or usage having the force of law in
2 Singapore;
3 END QUOTE
4 Legislation therefore includes all laws inhered from the United Kingdom, including the magna
5 Carta, the Bill of Rights and other legislation. More over, it includes also that the legal provision
6 that the British Parliament can always amend its own laws remains applicable. Therefore the
7 United kingdom by signing the European Union treaty and so its acceptance of its Constitution,
8 in effect has ensured that the right of the British parliament to compliment the Constitution of
9 Singapore was never extinguished.
10 Again:
11 "law" includes written law and any legislation of the United Kingdom or other enactment
12 or instrument whatsoever which is in operation in Singapore
13 the right of any parliament to amend its own legislation, including a constitution can only be
14 limited by the provisions of the Constitution, but the right to provide complimentary legislation,
15 such as the The European Convention for the protection of Human Rights and
16 Fundamental Freedoms (“the ECHR”) is clearly not avoided, as any legislation applicable to
17 British law automatically applies to all British law, with the exeption that constiotutional law
18 cannot be interfered with by implied amendments.
19 The purpose of the The European Convention for the protection of Human Rights and
20 Fundamental Freedoms (“the ECHR”) is not to undermine the THE REPUBLIC AND THE
21 CONSTITUTION but rather is complimentary to the provisions of the Constitution.
22 QUOTE
23 Equality.
24 12. --(1) All persons are equal before the law and entitled to the equal protection of the law.
25 END QUOTE
26
27 It is clear that the British Parliament at the time provided for Singapore to continue with
28 British Laws unless otherwise legislate by the Singaporean Parliament.
29
30 Hence, the British Parliament likewise could provide for the BREXIT post period as such.
31
32 Again, I have very limited knowledge of legalities concerning the UK and the EU but obviously
33 it is critical that any legislation deals with that before hand.
34
35 What ought to be understood also is that Aggregate Industries UK Ltd., R (on the application
36 of) v English Nature and & Anor [2002] EWHC 908 (Admin) (24th April, 2002) and
37 Judgments - Mark (Respondent) v. Mark (Appellant), OPINIONS, OF THE LORDS OF
38 APPEAL for judgment IN THE CAUSE, SESSION 2005-06 [2005] UKHL 42 on appeal from:
39 [2003] EWCA Civ 168 limited the EU legislation overriding UK legislative provisions only to
40 ordinary laws and not constitutional laws. It means that with the UK not having a WRITTEN
41 constitution the British Parliament may have to rely upon legislation that enacted constitution as
42 of other countries/colonies which would not be subject to EU laws and so can be regarded as
43 constitutional laws for the UK, even if it is only parts of such constitutions.
44
45 You obviously will let me know if you desire to get a more detailed set out from me about
46 why I view that the UK Supreme Court was in error and lacked any justiciable cause to
47 adjudicate.

1 QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
2 The court then has to decide whether the Prime Minister’s explanation for
3 advising that Parliament should be prorogued is a reasonable justification for a
4 prorogation having those effects.
5 END QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
6
7 Where the court specifically lack any justiciable cause then it is immaterial what the
8 court might desire to have viewed as responsibility.
9 QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
10 Nevertheless, it is the court’s responsibility to determine whether the Prime
11 Minster has remained within the legal limits of the power. If not, the final
12 question will be whether the consequences are sufficiently serious to call for the
13 court’s intervention.
14 END QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
15
16 This appears to me to be incorrect to some extend. Even if the House pass a no-confidence
17 motion it still is not the end for a particular government.
18 QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
19 The Government exists because it has the confidence of the House of Commons. It has
20 no democratic legitimacy other than that.
21 END QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
22
23 The Prime ministers motives or otherwise (lawfully or not) plays no part in determining the
24 legality of the Prorogation of the Parliament.
25 QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
26 Government must be accorded a great deal of latitude in making decisions of
27 this nature. We are not concerned with the Prime Minister’s motive in doing
28 what he did.
29 END QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
30
31 This appears to be a total absurd conclusion.
32 QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
33 61. It is impossible for us to conclude, on the evidence which has been put
34 before us, that there was any reason - let alone a good reason - to advise Her
35 Majesty to prorogue Parliament for five weeks, from 9th or 12th September
36 until 14th October. We cannot speculate, in the absence of further evidence,
37 upon what such reasons might have been. It follows that the decision was
38 unlawful.
39 END QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
40
41 The following in my view is totally irrelevant.
42 QUOTE [2019] UKSC 41 On appeals from: [2019] EWHC 2381 (QB) and [2019] CSIH 49
43 68.The prorogation itself takes place in the House of Lords and in the
44 presenceof Members of both Houses. But it cannot sensibly be described as a
45 “proceeding in Parliament”. It is not a decision of either House of Parliament.
46 Quite the contrary: it is something which is imposed upon them from outside.
47 It is not something upon which the Members of Parliament can speak or vote.
48 The Commissioners are not acting in their capacity as members of the House of
49 Lords but in their capacity as Royal Commissioners carrying out the Queen’s
50 bidding. They have no freedom of speech. This is not the core or essential
