The wonder and awe of "all things".
Mmmm. Sounds a lot like the recent spate of new laws some U.S. states are passing. But, in the U.S. there are some checks on states passing their own laws. A state law can be overturned for being unconstitutional at the state or the federal levels, or could be overridden by a federal law.Yesterday the proposed laws (bills) for this next period of parliament were announced (as read out by Her Madge). The government has an 80 seat majority and so they'll pass. What's coming will make it possible for the Prime Minister to control when a general election takes place, make it harder for people to vote, make it harder to challenge government decisions, and make it harder for anyone to protest about any of this.
I don't know much about the UK system in those ways. Does the UK have any checks and balances? Does the UK have any kind of court or panel that can review a national law and decide if it's constitutional or some such?
