  • The British Constitution and the Movement for a Modern Bill of Rights

  • Kersi B. Shroff
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    28 February 2019, pp. 99-108

  • It took the incisive pen of H.G. Wells to provide a simple understanding of the diffuse and arcane British constitution:

    Nobody planned the confounded constitution. It came about; … but you see it came about so happily in a way, it so suited the climate and temperament of our people and our island, it was on the whole so cosy, that our people settled down into it. You can't help settling down into it.

    The purpose of this paper is to briefly look at some aspects of the constitution that the British “settled down into” and to examine arguments calling for the incorporation of a written declaration of individual rights.
