Description: This book delves into the fundamental principles of constitutional law within the framework of leading cases that have shaped the British constitution. These principles have been established over centuries through legal decisions, parliamentary precedents, and established practices. The book chronologically examines landmark cases, some unjust or controversial, such as the oppressive "Ship Money" tax or the infamous "Seven Bishops" trial. These cases illustrate the development of fundamental principles like the limits of royal prerogative, the rights of citizens, and the balance of power between the different branches of government – all of which have contributed to the formation of the British constitution as we know it today.
