This most recent article about labour sent me into a spiral of questions appropriate for its own thread.

I get that the queen gets to decree prorogue and the prime minister can ask for one. But why does parliament allow the PM to request at will?
How is there a discussion about if this violates parliamentary sovereignty when the PM is a member of parliament? Isn't the fact the PM has the power to request prorogation an aspect of parliamentary sovereignty?
How can the minority request an injunction from court? The fact that the minority would get a judge to override the majority coalition and their leading MP seems anti sovereignty.
Is the PM's accountability to the majority party inadequate to address this?
