The British constitution is often described as being 'unwritten'. Which of the following statements best explains what this means?

  2. B
    The UK has a single, codified written document that contains all its constitutional laws in one place, similar to the constitution of the United States.
  3. C
    The constitution is 'unwritten' because the laws of the UK are based entirely on ancient oral traditions and have never been formally recorded in any written form.
  4. D
    The constitution consists only of Common Law (historical court judgments), as Acts of Parliament are not considered part of the constitutional framework.

Cevap

The British constitution is uncodified, meaning there is no single document that contains all the rules; instead, it is made up of various sources like Statute Law, Common Law, and conventions.
The correct answer accurately reflects that the UK constitution is uncodified. This means there is no single document that someone can point to as 'the constitution'. Instead, it is built from several sources: Statute Law (Acts of Parliament), Common Law (legal precedents), and constitutional conventions (traditional practices).
