Unwritten constitution
It is derived from a number of sources. Its principal source is statute law, i.e.,
laws passed by the UK Parliament.
Statute law is particularly important for determining the powers and scope of
government, and the conduct of elections.
Examples include the Act of Union of 1707, which united Scotland with
England and Wales, the various Representation of the People Acts, which
extended the right to vote, and the European Communities Act of 1972,
which took the UK into the European Community.
