Protestors displayed placards, chanted slogans, and blocked part of the pavement, causing minor congestion. Some pedestrians had to step into the road to pass, and store staff complained to the police about disruption to business. Police issued warnings under section 14 of the Public Order Act 1986 (POA), citing the risk of serious disruption, and ordered the demonstrators to move. When they refused, several were arrested and later convicted under section 137 of the Highways Act 1980 for wilful obstruction of the highway. The Magistrates\u2019 Court ruled that the obstruction was unlawful, as it interfered with the public&#8217;s right to pass freely. On appeal, the Divisional Court overturned the convictions, citing the protestors\u2019 rights under Articles 10 and 11 of the ECHR, and found that the Magistrates had failed to assess the proportionality of the interference with those rights.

You are advising a law reform commission tasked with reviewing judicial approaches to statutory interpretation in the UK, particularly in light of constitutional values such as parliamentary sovereignty, the rule of law, and the role of the judiciary in protecting fundamental rights. The commission is especially interested in the continued relevance of the literal, golden, and mischief rules, alongside the modern purposive approach and the interpretive obligations under section 3 of the Human Rights Act 1998 (HRA).

The Prime Minister publicly asserts that the prorogation is a \u201cstandard political manoeuvre\u201d designed to allow the government to \u201creset its legislative agenda.\u201d However, leaked internal communications suggest that the true motivation was to prevent Parliament from interfering with the government\u2019s trade strategy and to avoid scrutiny during sensitive negotiations. A cross-party group of MPs and legal campaigners applies for judicial review of the Prime Minister\u2019s advice to the monarch to prorogue Parliament. They argue that the Prime Minister\u2019s action unlawfully frustrates parliamentary sovereignty and undermines democratic accountability. With reference to <em>R (Miller) v The Prime Minister<\/em> [2019] UKSC 41 (\u2018<em>Miller No 2<\/em>\u2019), and broader principles of UK constitutional law, critically assess whether the Prime Minister\u2019s decision is justiciable and, if so, whether it is unlawful.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<fieldset>\n\t\t<legend><\/legend>\n\t<div class='qmn_radio_answers mlwRequiredRadio'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qmn_mc_answer_wrap  mrq_checkbox_class\" id=\"question92-1 \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<input type='radio' class='qmn_quiz_radio qmn-multiple-choice-input ' name=\"question92\" id=\"question92_1\" value=\"0\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<label class=\"qsm-input-label\" for=\"question92_1\">\n\t\t\t\t\tThe Prime Minister\u2019s decision is unlawful because, under Miller (No. 2), the use of prorogation that frustrates or prevents Parliament from carrying out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification is justiciable and may be quashed.\t\t\t\t\t<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qmn_mc_answer_wrap  mrq_checkbox_class\" id=\"question92-2 \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<input type='radio' class='qmn_quiz_radio qmn-multiple-choice-input ' name=\"question92\" id=\"question92_2\" value=\"1\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<label class=\"qsm-input-label\" for=\"question92_2\">\n\t\t\t\t\tThe Prime Minister\u2019s decision is a political question concerning the exercise of prerogative power and is therefore non-justiciable.

The Ombudsman investigates such complaints and makes recommendations for redress. However, in certain cases, the MP filter requires individuals to first obtain the support of a Member of Parliament (MP) to bring a claim, creating an additional hurdle for those seeking to challenge public body decisions. This filter is often justified as a way to prevent vexatious claims, but it has been criticized for limiting access to the Parliamentary Ombudsman system, particularly when claimants are unable to secure an MP\u2019s support.

The government, however, announces a non-statutory review instead, citing concerns over cost and delay. Critics argue that a non-statutory review lacks independence and transparency.
