Stuck at a Crossroad? Substantive Legitimate Expectations in English Law
In “The Provenance and Protection of Legitimate Expectations” Forsyth argued that English law should protect substantive legitimate expectations. However, he was concerned that too great an expansion of legitimate expectations could lead to incoherence and intuitive decision-making. I argue that recent case law, and Forsyth's analysis, have clarified some of these inconsistencies. Nevertheless, the doctrine of legitimate expectations stands at a …

Brexit, Miller, and the Regulation of Treaty Withdrawal: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
In "the constitutional case of the century," the U.K. Supreme Court concluded that the Government did not possess the prerogative power to withdraw from the European Union. However, while it may be clear from the decision that legislation was required to empower the Government to notify the European Union of its intention to leave, the scope of the Court's reasoning in Miller is otherwise uncertain. At its broadest, the decision would apply to th…

In Defence of Due Deference
The doctrine of deference permeates human rights review. It plays a role in defining Convention rights, in determining the nature of the proportionality test applied when analysing non‐absolute rights, as well as in deciding the stringency of its application. The role of deference has recently been subjected to both judicial and academic criticism, some of which advocates the demise of the doctrine. This article develops a contextual account of d…
A Peculiarly British Protection of Human Rights
The Human Rights Act 1998 has generated a plethora of academic literature discussing its desirability, the scope of its provisions and its impact upon both the common law and the constitution. As the commentary develops, the temptation to categorise debate as a battle between two distinct camps becomes irresistible. For Nicol, the con£ict is fought between incorporationists and third-wave protagonists. Incorporationists desire a full constitution…
