Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking a larger view than the passing glance in most law schools, Loveland (law, Brunel U.) looks at the background and consequences of the 1950 South African case Harris v. (Donges) Minister of the Interior. He agrees with the conventional view that it established the principle that the United Kingdom Parliament cannot legally produce a statute that limits the powers of successive Parliaments. But he goes further by looking at how the case and the precedent relates to broader contemporary concerns about the British Constitution, especially in light of the Labour government's promotion of fundamental reform.
