The UK's constitutional order faces an existential crisis, with Brexit placing unbearable pressure on the political and legal architecture. All this makes the need for a written Constitution more pronounced. Retaining the easily accessible style of the first edition, this book addresses how this might be put in place. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePart 1 sets out a number of arguments in favour of a written Constitution, as well as the most common objections. Part 2 presents a working draft in the form of one possible model for a Constitution. Observations and explanatory notes are attached to each section of this draft Constitution. This model Constitution is intended as the first stage in a public debate, designed to provoke further discussion about the content and method of legislating into law a written Constitution. Part 3 contains the draft of the Act of Parliament that would be needed to introduce any form of constitutional change. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRarely has a book been more timely or essential.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Gordon Kc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509979115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509979110\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hart Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Richard Gordon Kc","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46767310078207,"sku":"9781509979110","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cd9081e6-42d3-4df9-8338-1ff7a7794c6d.jpg?v=1744169443","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/repairing-british-politics-richard-gordon-kc-9781509979110","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
