UK Constitution

The UK constitution is a collection of laws, traditions, and principles that define how the country is governed. Unlike a single written document, it’s made up of statutes, judicial decisions, conventions, and historical practices that together establish the powers of Parliament, the government, and the rights of citizens. It provides the framework for laws, elections, and the relationship between the state and individuals. This flexible system allows the UK to adapt over time without a formal, codified constitution, relying instead on an evolving set of legal and customary principles.
