The government will seek a three-day recess for Tory conference next week.

A Tory source said they hoped Parliament would not sit on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

The source said conferences were an important democratic institution – and the Tory event not going ahead would be “incredibly damaging” for Manchester’s economy.

The spokesman insisted the PM would speak at the conference even if Parliament is sitting next week.

He says: "Let me just explain why I call it the Surrender Act.

"It would oblige us to stay in the EU for month after month at a cost of a billion pounds per month.

"It would take away from this country the ability to decide how long that extension would be and it would give that power to the EU."

He adds: "It takes away the fundamental ability of the country to walk away from the negotiations.

"The best way to get rid of the Surrender Act is not to have voted for it in the first place, to repeal it, and to vote for the deal we are going to do."

Labour MP Alison McGovern says: "The irony is not lost on any of us.

"Prorogation is nothing to do with Brexit, the pirme minister told us, but yet here we are talking constantly about Brexit.

"But it's the more serious point about our political culture that I want to raise with the prime minster.

"Because those of us who constantly remember our friend Jo Cox need our political culture to change now.

"It is getting toxic, Mr Speaker. The prime minister's language is violent and his government is dysfunctional.

"So will he promise us that he will change? And can I ask him, just for this session, to take responsibility for his actions?"

Mr Johnson replies: "I agree... tempers have become very ragged across the country and people feel the fever of Brexit has gone on for too long.

"But the best way to sort this out is to get Brexit done.

"I hope she will join us in getting a good deal for this country and getting it through the House of Commons."

Former Tory minister Justine Greening has told the prime minister he should stop referring to the law passed by MPs against a no-deal Brexit as the "Surrender Act".

But Mr Johnson repeats his nickname for the bill and said his experience during negotiations in the past few weeks "has made it more difficult for us to get a deal".

To shouts of "stop it!", Mr Johnson says he will not extend Brexit beyond 31 October.

Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson demands an apology from Boris Johnson for "illegally shutting down our democracy".

No 10 has said it will assume MPs have confidence in the government and its Brexit strategy if opposition parties do not table a confidence vote tonight.

A spokesman for the PM said: “It’s put up or shut up time.”

But the spokesman would not say the PM would resign immediately if he lost and would not say when a general election would take place if the government was brought down.

Tory MP Victoria Prentis asks whether the prime minister is working hard for a Brexit deal and whether MPs will have the opportunity to vote on another deal.

Mr Johnson says: "I can absolutely guarantee that if and when we are able to bring back an agreement that I think will work for this House and this country on October 17 and 18, of course we will put it to Parliament and I do hope it will then get assent."

Boris Johnson has described this week's Supreme Court judgement as "astonishing" and "novel".

In response to a question from Joanna Cherry, the SNP MP who brought one of the challenges against his decision, Mr Johnson said: "She did produce an astonishing result, it was a ground-breaking judgement, it was a novel judgement and it has had the effect we can all see today."

Labour MP Jess Phillips says the "strongest thing" the PM could do is to act with humility and contrition.

She says that she would be ashamed if the Labour Party had done what he had in proroguing Parliament. "This looks horrendous to the public," she says.

The prime minister says he does accept the judgement of the Supreme Court. "I think the humblest thing we can do as parliamentarians is respect the will of the people," he adds.

"Have seen more hours of the Commons than I care to remember and that was one of most brutal and mad I have ever seen," says the BBC's political editor., external

"No shred of remorse from the PM ruled to have broken the law yesterday, paltry attempt at answering Corbyn's questions, a few Labour MPs screaming, 'you should be in jail'."

Plaid Cymru Westminster Leader Liz Saville Roberts says she has found a 2004 Telegraph column from Boris Johnson saying then-PM Tony Blair should be impeached.

Mr Johnson also signed an impeachment motion, she says.

"Does he still believe it right and proper to seek to impeach the prime minister who has been judged to mislead the public?" she asks.

Mr Johnson replies: "I'm glad she is such an assiduous reader of my column.

"The Supreme Court did not impugn the motives of the government and secondly, Wales voted leave."

The BBC's political correspondent Nick Eardley says No 10 is trying to lay down the gauntlet.

"If they don’t go for confidence vote, Downing Street will argue it’ll be 'very clear they do have confidence in this government'.

"But even if PM were to lose, [he] wouldn’t have to resign right away and No 10 won’t say when election would be."

Lesley Laird, the deputy leader of Scottish Labour, shares her take on Mr Johnson's speech:

Others, also from Labour, accused the PM of showing no respect, and making "a mockery of our Parliament".

The Independent Group for Change leader Anna Soubry asks: "Will he now apologise, if not to this place, to the country? And has he apologised to Her Majesty the Queen?"

"I would not comment on my conversations with Her Majesty," Mr Johnson replies.

Stella Creasy, Labour MP for Walthamstow, says she has been told by a constituent that "Brexit propaganda" is being "broadcast" in primary schools on thousands of digital screens.

She says this is happening "without the prior consent of the schools".

Mr Johnson says this is news to him, but that his government is "spending more" in primary schools across the country by "levelling up".

Labour MP Yvette Cooper says "none" of the PM's predecessors would have prorogued Parliament.

But Mr Johnson disagrees, saying: "All prime ministers have had prorogations... I think John Major had several weeks in advance of an election."

"Let's be clear we are as one in respecting the Supreme Court and we are as one in thinking that judgement was wrong."

Nigel Dodds, the DUP's Westminster leader, says that, on Brexit, the fundamentals remain unchanged and that "we need to deliver on the Brexit referendum".

He asks whether the prime minister agrees that "shenanigans" in the Commons may end up bringing about a no deal.

Mr Johnson says there is a chance to make progress but that is not helped by the law passed by MPs which aims to prevent a no-deal Brexit, which he dubs "the Surrender Act".
