Böcker av Alexander Deane

On Thursday 12th June 2003, a press release concerning a Cabinet reshuffle declared as a footnote that the office of Lord Chancellor was to be abolished and that a new Supreme Court would replace the House of Lords as the highest court in the UK.In response to intense criticism of the Government for announcing these judicial reforms without holding any prior debate or consulation, Banner and Deane have sought the views of several constitutional experts. This book is the product of their research.

The middle class provides British society with its stability and strength. According to Deane's contentious thesis, our middle class has abstained from its responsibility to uphold societal values, and the enormously damaging collapse of our society's norms and standards is largely a result of that abdication.
