LAST week Boris Johnson and his hard-right government launched an all-out assault on our already embattled democracy.
Not content with trying to force through a damaging no-deal Brexit and letting Britain crash out of the EU on October 31, last Wednesday he moved to shut down Parliament to make it harder for MPs to stop him.
