Updated with supplemental update info
Oct 1, 2020 at 22:04 comment added calum_b Same here -- as I said in the original question, reinstalling Mojave didn't help. I tried to install the latest combo updater first, but it's a year old and won't install on top of the more recent security updates.
Oct 1, 2020 at 19:01 comment added bmike Bummer - we’ve had such good luck with that on ours that have been stuck. I’ve added more work for you on my answer as an edit. Are you sure it’s not account or network related?
Oct 1, 2020 at 18:39 comment added Jonesy @bmike Tried reinstalling Mojave on both my Macs. No luck. App Store updates still fail.
Oct 1, 2020 at 13:13 comment added bmike Seriously, reinstall Mojave on top or grab the combo updater @Jonesy - it’s likely some updates that were delta messed things up in several ways. The reinstall doesn’t delete your files or data, just fixes the system.

Oct 1, 2020 at 6:35 comment added Jonesy Same problem here. My brother is also experiencing it on his laptop running Mojave. And I’ve seen some mentions of it on Twitter. That suggests it’s an App Store issue. I think we have to wait for Apple to fix it.

Sep 30, 2020 at 22:31 comment added calum_b Sadly not. I've tried everything there that involves killing any processes (by dint of reinstalling Mojave), and the fact that I can download every app, just not update them afterwards, isn't really addressed by any of those answers.
