Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson will suspend Parliament for more than a month before Brexit, enraging opponents and raising the stakes in the country's most serious political crisis in decades.

‘Stop the coup’ rallies expected in locations ranging from Manchester to Copenhagen.

Fiery protests in London saw Green Assembly Member Caroline Russell led away in handcuffs, before activists marched on Buckingham Palace.

Demonstrators gather to oppose the PM’s move to suspend parliament in the final weeks before the expected Brexit date.

‘Shame on you,’ demonstrators shout as they gather outside Downing Street and block roads and bridges.

Protesters ranged from students at the prime minister’s old Oxford college to retired teachers, children and activists.
