Opis

This is the first book about constitutional reform which sets out to forecast what the UK's constitution will look like in ten years time. Starting with the eleven constitutional Bills passed in 1997-98, the book analyzes how these will affect the UK's constitutional structure, and examines in detail the further reforms that will be required to ensure that the new constitutional settlement beds down.

Recenzje

there are three mysteries about the transformation of the UK. What does the Prime Minister think he is doing? Why doesn't the British media hold constitutional reform to be important enough to demand an answer to this question? And why don't "the people" care? Any overview of the reforms now under way, such as Constitutional Futures, the aptly timed, keynote publication of the Constitution Unit, should be judged in the first instance on how well it addresses these puzzling questions.
