The Queen couldn't have known that it was illegal - because it wasn't at the time of her meeting with Boris.
The prorogation only became illegal when the Supreme Court itself passed a new law to make it illegal - and then it declared it illegal.
Just days before, the High Court ruled Johnson's prorogation to be entirely legal, and did so by following at least 300 years of precedent.
The Supreme Court's ruling was another Establishment stitch-up against the largest democratic vote in British history.
No...if it is wrong.....it if wrong regardless of party ..
things are really not good when both are trying to use the Queen for their own agenda.
She might be the "Mother figure.".........but she is not their mom.
The prorogation only became wrong when the Supreme Court changed the law to suddenly make it wrong after the appeal against the High Court's decision reached the Supreme Court.
Days earlier, the High Court, following 300 years of precedent, found the prorogation to be legal.
An intelligent response, just as I expected.
Just the kind of unbeatable rebuke to my comments I expected from you. You're obviously way out of my league.
No Deal it is...
Brexit: Deal essentially impossible, No 10 source says after PM-Merkel call
A No 10 source has said a Brexit deal is "essentially impossible" after a call between the PM and Angela Merkel.
Boris Johnson and the German chancellor spoke earlier about the proposals he put forward to the EU - but the source said she made clear a deal based on them was "overwhelmingly unlikely".

Why ? How long should the next guy have ? Should the Brits just pull down their drawers and bend over ?
Why? For delivering the thing that the people voted for?
He should step down if he DOESN'T deliver Brexit.
New poll finds voters are more likely to blame Remainer MPs and Parliament than Boris Johnson if Brexit is delayed beyond the Halloween deadline
A survey conducted by ComRes shows that if the UK's departure date is pushed back beyond October 31 then the PM will be at least partially blamed for the extension by just over half of voters.
But crucially for the PM the numbers show that voters will blame other groups far more than they will the premier if he is unable to stick to his 'do or die' Brexit pledge.
The statistics represent a boost for Mr Johnson and Downing Street because they come as the chances of a Brexit deal appear to be shrinking while the possibility of an extension past Halloween increases.
Number 10 is adamant that the UK will leave the EU with or without a deal but the government has also conceded that it will have to comply with the so-called Benn Act.
That anti-No Deal law states that the PM must ask the EU for a delay if the two sides have not struck an accord in the run up to the October 31 deadline.
However, Downing Street has made clear that while it will ask for a delay in such circumstances it will also make plain to the EU that it does not want an extension.
Should a delay be agreed, the ComRes poll for The Telegraph suggests Mr Johnson would have to shoulder some of the blame.
But he is likely to be heartened by the fact other groups would be blamed more than he would.
