4. Explain and analyse the significance of three sources of the UK Constitution
1. Statute Law: A law which uses parliamentary sovereignty to override all other laws with the exception of the
EU’s laws. An example of a statute law would be the European Community Act of 1972, or the Human Rights
Act of 1998. Therefore, this is arguably the most important source of the UK constitution as these laws are
‘superior.’
2. Common Law: These are laws which are based on precedent and tradition - sometimes referred to as a
‘judge-made law.’ When deciding the legality of a case, a judge will analyse previous decisions made on
similar cases. An example of this would be the powers contained in the royal prerogative (which are now
exercised by the PM.) The common law is significant as it enables lawful and justified legal decisions to be
made by a judge, which therefore prevent misuse or injustice from occurring.
3. Works of Authority: Works written by scholars who are deemed as being ‘experts’ by the constitution; they
outline what is lawfully correct. An example of this would be Bagehot’s ‘The English Constitution.’ Works of
authority is significant as it ensures the constitution continues to be run ‘correctly’, as well as traditionally
however, arguably this only makes the constitution outdated as the scholars rose to prominence in the
Victorian period.
