Fury over 'dead Parliament' comments

The Attorney General Geoffrey Cox - whose legal advice on prorogation was rejected by the Supreme Court - has declared this Parliament to be "dead".

In some furious exchanges, Mr Cox said Opposition MPs were scared of a general election. They accused him of having no "shame" after the suspension of Parliament was judged to "unlawful, void and of no effect".

Kristiina Cooper reports.
