Last Notes npub1stxtn6mazpc4e6u578mshms8tszxd968mrhcrzv23hdc47zht7nq62p8dh Lynn D yeah, somebody called me a Luddite awhile back and was shocked when I said, “yes, and proudly so!” I then had the opportunity to explain what the Luddites were AND why they were fighting the industrialists et. al. I also told him to go and look up the Peterloo massacre. npub1stxtn6mazpc4e6u578mshms8tszxd968mrhcrzv23hdc47zht7nq62p8dh Lynn D yes, but in order to do so, they must have at least 75% support of the people living in the territory. In the context of settler-colonial territories (like Canada), they would also have to respect the territorial claims of the indigenous populations. npub1stxtn6mazpc4e6u578mshms8tszxd968mrhcrzv23hdc47zht7nq62p8dh Lynn D the problem with not having a written constitution is that people, including governments, have no real idea what their rights and responsibilities are in the Byzantine morass. Of course, if there is no ability or will to enforce abuses of a written Constitution, it is only as good as the paper it’s written on, but at least ordinary people will have some inkling of what the principles are and how they are being violated. @npub15wt…46w7 npub1stxtn6mazpc4e6u578mshms8tszxd968mrhcrzv23hdc47zht7nq62p8dh Lynn D the UK has what they euphemistically call an “uncodified Constitution,” which means that they just have a bunch of Charters, Laws, Court Decisions, and “Customs” that purportedly supposed to act as some form of “Constitution.” For those of us looking in from the outside, it just means that they don’t have a Constitution. @npub12pw…zvxn
