Should Britain have a written Consitution?
As one should know, it is one of the only 2 democratic nations on Earth that does not. I think it should because:
1. Without one, the Parliament has no one whatsoever to yield to. (Contrast this to the US, where there is a system of checks and balances) 2. It might improve Britain's integration into the EU. 3. It would prevent the rise of a totalatarian leader. 4. The Parliament can make major decisions based only on whether a majority supports a certain motion; with a constitution, there are more clarified legal procedures, like 2/3 majority. So...anyone agree? Disagree?
