Establish a UK written constitution to safeguard freedoms

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 26 September 2025

The UK is one of the few democracies without a written constitution. Our rights and freedoms are scattered across laws and conventions, leaving them vulnerable. A written constitution would protect civil liberties, limit government power, and strengthen democracy for future generations. Recent debates over the scope of executive power, the use of Henry VIII clauses, and the suspension of Parliament in 2019 have highlighted the fragility of our unwritten system. A written constitution would ensure that short-term political interests cannot erode democratic principles and civil liberties.

A referendum on whether the UK should have a American style constitution.

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 31 March 2025

The UK has an unwritten constitution, which relies on conventions, legal precedents, and Acts of Parliament. It can easily be manipulated, and does not inherently favour British citizens over others. A American style constitution that favours British citizens is needed to protect are way of life. The current state of the UK economically and socially is on the brink of collapse, and British citizens are at boiling point with parliament, the state of the current political parties and the globalist agenda of mass migration. We ask you put this to a referendum, let British citizens decide if we want to keep the current unwritten constitution or have a American style constitution that favours British Citizens above anyone else.
