| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In my initial essay, I played the role of Cassandra, prophesying a political disaster unless a constituent assembly were convened to hammer out a written constitution for approval by the British people. To make out my case, I asked readers to put aside ‘problems of implementation’ that diverted attention from the pathologies that require immediate and decisive action. On the surface, it may appear that my commentators disagree. For all of them, real‐world implementation issues play a key role in deciding whether they should back my proposal. |
