We’re covering a dramatic finale to the longest session of the British Parliament in modern history, where Prime Minister Boris Johnson got almost nothing he wanted. We also look at Moscow election results and why Tina Turner is thriving in retirement. By Melina Delkic Prime Minister Boris Johnson of Britain speaking in Dublin on Monday. Phil Noble/Reuters Boris Johnson’s last-ditch election plan fails Monday was the end of [one of the most abysmal starts any British leader has ever endured](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRfWbOMP4QHAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMTkvMDkvMDkvd29ybGQvZXVyb3BlL2JyZXhpdC1qb2huc29uLXBhcmxpYW1lbnQuaHRtbD90ZT0xJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmcmZW1jPWVkaXRfTUJFX3BfMjAxOTA5MTAmc2VjdGlvbj10b3BOZXdzP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEyMjYzJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY4ODImdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUydGlvbj10b3BOZXdzVwNueXRCCgAkjC53Xbhn9JVSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s plan to bolster support in his thinning Conservative Party with a general election was voted down late Monday. Parliament’s push to avert a no-deal Brexit became law.

If Mr. Johnson had thought he could outfox Parliament by suspending it, sidelining lawmakers at a critical moment in the Brexit debate, he ended up being outmaneuvered. What’s next: There has been talk that Mr. Johnson might defy the law and refuse to ask Brussels for an extension. This could lead to a messy court battle or even jail time. Parliament is now suspended until mid-October.

But beyond Moscow, the Kremlin still held full control of the political situation, winning all 16 of the governor’s races. The Kremlin declared victory, but opponents dismissed that. Details: The governing United Russia party will still form the majority in the city legislature, but the results revealed the party’s continuing weakness, as well as the seeming effectiveness of strategic efforts by the opposition to consolidate support behind antigovernment candidates seen as having the best chance of winning.
