Closed Introduce a written constitution based on the American model

Closed on

Introduce a written constitution based on the model of the American Constitution and Thomas Paine’s The Rights of Man, that protects inalienable rights of all citizens. We believe this would better protect the poor, vulnerable and elderly.

We believe a written constitution would better avoid legal grey areas, and set in stone fundamental rights and protections. Only the Government and Parliament can do this.

This could be an unprecedented change of British politics to rival political systems of the world for the 21st century.
