British MPs have backed proposals to make it harder for the next prime minister to force through a no-deal Brexit by suspending parliament.

Boris Johnson, the clear frontrunner to succeed Prime Minister Theresa May next week, says Britain must leave the European Union on October 31st with or without a deal.

Johsnon has refused to rule out suspending, or ProroguingĀ , parliament to prevent MPs from passing legislation to block his exit plan if he tries to exit without a deal.
