Daily Beast - Boris Johnson’s suspension of the British Parliament has been ruled to be unlawful in an explosive court decision in Scotland which accuses the prime minister of giving illegal advice to the Queen.
... Scottish judges have now declared the decision unlawful after lawyers representing 75 British lawmakers from each of parliament's major parties argued that it was designed to prevent parliament from debating and taking action on Brexit. Johnson claimed he wanted to suspend parliament to allow him to introduce fresh legislation in a new parliamentary term.
Asked by The Daily Beast what they expected to happen next, a British government minister responded only: “Bad things.”

I pretty sure lying to the Queen, can land BoJo in jail. With recent legislation, if an MP is convicted of a crime and given a jail sentence of a year or more, they are removed from Parliament. The case will be appealed to the UK Supreme court, but this ruling is not a good sign for BoJo.
