Rape of the Constitution? (Paperback)

New Labour seduced the people of Britain with red roses and soft soap, it has also undermined Parliament and traditional checks to executive power. New Labour in effect raped the British constitution. That is the position deployed in this text compiled of essays critical of the Government's handling of constitutional reform in relation to Europe, Westminster and devolution, in the late 1990s. Contributors include: Tony Benn, Simon Hughes, Bernard Weatherill, Conrad Russell and Norman Tebbit.
