      Terf Island doesn't have a consistution

      wait what? am i falling for a dumb bit here or is there actually a country in the 21st century that still doesn't have a real constitution?

        they pretend there's a constitution but it exists entirely in the minds of judges and shit. it's supposed to be this cloud of principles and important laws and precedents or some shit.

        in practice it's numberwang, i think.

        The UK does have a constitution, but it's spread across several dozen documents, caselaw and convention. Government action has in the past been struck down for being unconstitutional, which would be fairly impressive for a nation without one.
