- waqf 4y agoI wouldn't say "supreme" is inaccurate, since the Supreme Court is superior to every other court. (That's if we accept that Parliament is no longer a court after the Supreme Court assumed its judicial responsibilities. Also, I'm likely wrong because everything one thinks one knows about the UK constitution is always wrong, but feel free to tell me how so.)
- MonkeyClub 4y ago> everything one thinks one knows about the UK constitution is always wrong Ha, this cracked me up, and got me thinking whether it's possible that the UK developed legal bitrot because it hasn't had a good revolution in a while. so it's in a sense.
