The UK is going through a period of unprecedented constitutional change. There is much unfinished business, and further changes still to come. Where are these changes taking us? Will devolutionlead to Scottishindependence and the break up of the UK? Will a British bill of rightslead to yet more power for the judges? Will the introduction of proportional voting systems at every other level lead to electoral reform at Westminster? And will this mean more power for Parliament, or less? In this book, leading political scientists and lawyers forecast the impactof these changes on the UK's key institutions and the constitution as a whole. It is an indispensable guide for policy makers, lawyers and judges, the media, academics, students, and anyone interested in the future of the UK's political landscape.
