Scroll to see replies

Anyone else struggling with Lords reforms and other reforms questions...
what do you think is the hardest part about unit 2 ?
Ideally i would do
Unit 1 - Pressure Groups and Democracy, maybe elections
unit 2 - judiciary Section A, constitution 40 marker
Right now im just doing plans for all the questions. how are you revising unit 2 ?
That's a good idea, I've just made powerpoints for all the units & im gonna write em up a couple of times

I'm actually not sure lol, probably arguments against or for a codified constitution.

If anyone does indeed have some good ones, I'd be willing to trade ^^
Iraq and France have constitutions.
Reasons to not codify:
Flexibility/organic
Dominant executive
Conservative pragmatism
Reasons to codify:
Bill of right entrenched
Clarity
Modernisation
Dominant executive

Most countries have constitutions lol ^^

I wouldn't combine flexibility and organic btw. they are seperate advantages. an organic constitution is advantageous because it assumes historical authority

Lol true do you think we need examples for both codified consts and uncodified cause most probably have codified? And I thought they pretty much meant the same thing, what would you put with it being organic stuff like the glorious revolution and the shift from cabinet government to pm government?
Thank u man😅

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_United_Kingdom

good source for examples for UK constitution organic arguement, glorious revolution is good ye

just pick one or two old laws and talk about how it has developed over time, not just created at one point in time like codified constitutions
does anyone have any predictions, especially for unit 2 40 markers?

I reckon a question specifically on an elected second chamber will come up - last year was also reform AFAIK, but I think the questions would be very different.
