Free, in-person tickets open for our annual Gray's Inn Reading: Lord Falconer asks, Considering the last decade, has the UK Constitution worked or does it need reform? Book via: https://lnkd.in/eMnAJhSs ..................................... Does the UK’s constitution provide too much freedom for those that wish to abuse it? Specific examples of this might include Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s lawbreaking during COVID, the selection of Liz Truss as Prime Minister, the ability of the Government to force controversial policies (such as the Rwanda Bill) and the sacking of the Cabinet Secretaries and Permanent Secretaries. Or does the UK constitution, perhaps in contrast to that of the United States and many other nation states, provide relative freedom to remove unsuitable political and civil service leaders without relative domestic political trauma?
