"Brexit has put in question much of the traditional fabric of the constitutionUnwritten Rule is a brave attempt to show how it can be remoulded. While few will agree with all of the proposed remedies, Unwritten Rule will undoubtedly re-invigorate the debate. It is written with clarity and verve by experienced practitioners in government." -- Vernon Bogdanor, Professor of Government, King's College, London
"A timely, compelling and extremely important contribution to the most pressing political debate of the next decade. Can we reinvent the United Kingdom for the next century as it has so often been reinvented in the past? The authors suggest a series of positive steps, including constitutional reform and significant devolution in England, in the hope that the nations and regions of the United Kingdom can find enough common ground to prevent a painful dissolution of the Union." -- Gavin Esler, author of How Britain Ends: English Nationalism and the Rebirth of Four Nations
