- pbhjpbhj 13y agoUK has the rule of law, the ECHR (for example). Would it matter if there were some other document making such things unlawful? Do you think that if they had the protections of the ECHR but it was called a constitution that GCHQ wouldn't have taken the same actions? Lawyers may tell you the UK do have a constitution - I've never really understood how that's true however.
