It's not impossible to devise a new way of doing these things. It wouldn't be any more alarming than the old ways.

Or maybe he's just ignorant of what has been done in the past. That wouldn't be surprising in a Tory, even one who thinks he's the Lord Chancellor.

I think you underestimate the damage that can be done to the UK's constitution by people who don't care about Rule of Law and have an 80 seat majority.

As I've said from the beginning, I don't see anything in the statement implying that he's going to violate the Rule of Law. That's only a reasonable interpretation if you ignore the part where it's said he's looking to "allow the Government to introduce ad hoc legislation". Which the author of the article did ignore. This is a purely imaginary fuss, up and until something that actually would violate the Rule of Law is suggested.
