Young, Alison eng 2023-04-06 electronic resource text/html ddc:342 brexit Constitutional Change EU Membership Referendum Retained EU Law UK Constitutionalism United Kingdom Verfassungsblog Verfassungsblog--2366-7044 CC BY-SA 4.0 The UK’s membership of, and later exit from, the EU has had a dramatic effect on the UK constitution. It also provided a catalyst for further change. These demonstrate the relative ease with which the UK constitution can be modified, reinforcing the UK’s characterisation as a predominantly political, flexible constitution. This post will argue that these transformations illustrate something more fundamental that applies to all constitutions – be they predominantly codified or uncodified, with or without the ability of the courts to strike down unconstitutional legislation.
