The Prime Minister keeps referring to the "surrender act," much to the anger of the opposition benches who are interrupting him by shouting "disgusting!" whenever he uses the term.

Johnson is referring to the law Parliament passed before the suspension, which requires him to seek an extension to Brexit if he can't get a deal before late October.

It is officially known as European Union (Withdrawal) (No. 2) Act 2019, but most lawmakers refer to it as the Benn Act, after the MP who sponsored it.

It is designed to prevent the UK from crashing out of the European Union without a deal, a scenario economists, the Bank of England and the government itself say would damage the UK economy and hurt the poorest most.

Justine Greening, who was sacked from the Conservative Party for voting in favor of the law, said: "Continuing to call a bill this House has passed a 'surrender bill' is deeply disrespectful to this place."

Johnson said he calls the law "surrender act" because it was "intended to damage this country's negotiation position."
