CONSTITUTION
Unwritten constitution: Britain is a constitutional monarchy. That is, it is a country governed by a
king or queen who accepts the advice of a parliament. Britain is almost alone among modern states in
that it does not have ‘a constitution’. Of course, there are rules, regulations, principles and procedures
for the running of the country. But there is no single written document which van be appealed to as
the highest law of the land. Nobody can refer to ‘article 6’ or ‘the first amendment’ or anything like
that, because nothing like that exist.

Parliamentary sovereignty: is a principle of the UK constitution. It makes Parliament the supreme
legal authority in the UK which can create or end any law. Parliamentary sovereignty is the most
important part of the UK constitution.

LEGAL POSITIONS

Lord chancellor: Lord Chancellor is a senior and important functionary in the government of the
United Kingdom. He is the second highest ranking of the Great Officers of State after the Lord High
Steward. The Lord Chancellor is appointed by the Sovereign on the advice of the Prime Minister. The
Lord Chancellor is responsible for the efficient functioning and independence of the courts. The
current Lord Chancellor is Robert Buckland.

Lord chief justice: the highest-ranking law officer in England and Wales, presiding over the Court of
Appeal (Criminal Division). responsible for the functioning and independence of the courts, and

Barrister (queen’s counsel (qc): Barristers are specialist legal advisers and court room advocates.
They are independent, objective and trained to advise clients on the strengths and weaknesses of their
case. They have specialist knowledge and experience in and out of court, which can make a
substantial difference to the outcome of a case. A limited number of senior barristers receive 'silk' -
becoming Queen's Counsel - as a mark of outstanding ability. They are normally instructed in very
serious or complex cases. Most senior judges once practiced as QCs. In order ‘to take silk’ a lawyer
usually has to serve as a barrister for at least 10 years. Recently, solicitors have also been appointed
Queen’s Counsel.

Solicitor: Mainly performs legal work outside the court. Solicitors have special knowledge of
different areas of the law such as family, crime, finance, property & employment. It does contracts,
wills, divorces & presenting clients’ case in Magistrate Court.

Justices of the peace (jp): Magistrates, who are also known as Justice of the Peace (JPs), are not

local committee. They do not get a salary or fee for their work. Magistrates (also called Justices of the
Peace) are unpaid volunteers and come from a wide range of backgrounds and occupations – from bus
drivers to architects, pilots to mechanics, nursery nurses to retired people, unemployed to teachers.
