Who governs Britain? Is Parliament sovereign? Who chooses the Prime
Minister? And who enforces the rules? The United Kingdom is in the
throes of political and constitutional conflict. Tensions between
different Westminster and Holyrood, and between the UK and the
European Union, are part of a wider picture of constitutional flux.
The United Kingdom is one of only three nations that does not have
the principal provisions of the organs of state, nor is how they
relate to one another and to the citizen embodied in a single
document. Devolution and Brexit have given rise to calls for a
codified constitution, but the debate has taken place against a
background of confusion and uncertainty as to existing
constitutional arrangements. We must first understand what already
exists and how our constitution works today. This deeply informed
and elegantly written book addresses the problems that have arisen
in the context of the greatest political crisis our country has
faced in decades. -- .
