Sovereignty Act: Rubbish
No better way to return to blogging than to turn around, face your party and tell them they’re wrong!
As I am currently en route to a constitutional law tutorial, it only seems appropriate to talk about the constitutional issue running through the blogosphere this week: Cameron and Hague’s proposed Sovereignty Act. This act, we are told, will assert UK supremacy in the area of EC law.
The problem with this legislation is that it is a pile of logically absurd and constitutionally dangerous nonsense.
First, look at the underlying logic of the act. The only time you need to pass an act declaring you are a sovereign body is when you are, in fact, not
Ego Boost
I just found this about me on politics.co.uk. Suffice to say I am flattered (even if they did misspell my name).
