The UK Supreme Court has been in existence for some thirteen years and is now taken for granted as part of the fabric of our legal system. This new edition of the book not only tells the remarkable story-full of twists and turns- of how the court came to be created, but also of the repercussions which followed from the court's judgment in the prorogation case. In doing so, it taps into a rich seam of social and political history. It also provides an up-to-date assessment, free of legal jargon, as to how the court has "performed" in the light of both the fears and expectations which greeted its arrival

The author, who has personally known some of the main characters in the story, has had a long and distinguished career at the Bar, appearing in many landmark cases in different areas of the law. His memoir, 'Chance, Cheek and Some Heroics', was published in 2018
