Portsmouth MP signs cross party declaration against Parliament shutdown
The Church House Declaration, named after the venue in Westminster where the signing took place, labels prime minister Boris Johnson’s plan to suspend Parliament as ‘an undemocratic outrage.’
Stephen Morgan MP said: ‘I am proud to be counted as one of the 160 MPs from across the house who have stood in solidarity against this Prime Minister’s undemocratic and reckless attempts to push us closer to the no deal precipice.
