Political Constitutionalism and Referendums: The Case of Brexit
Political Constitutionalism and Referendums: The Case of Brexit
EPISODE SUMMARY
This week we ask: Can the Brexit referendum can be regarded as consistent with political constitutionalism? Or did it represented the sovereign will of the people?
EPISODE NOTES
This week we welcome Professor Richard Bellamy back to the podcast. Richard has appeared twice before on the following topics: ‘Does the UK Still Have a Political Constitution’ (May 2021) and ‘Checks and Balances in Democracy’ (Oct 2020)
