The E.U Factortame case.

E.U law does not have to pass through parliament. It just is. Factortame case: E.U Treaty of Rome 1973 took precedent over British Merchant Shipping Act 1988. This meant that a previous parliament had bound its successor, undermining the key feature of parliamentary sovereignty.

Britain is stronger as a member of the E.U

And even if we feel the need to leave, we are not bound to it.

Devolution
Diluted form of federalism, weakens parliamentary sovereignty.

Devolution
Can be overturned N.I 1972

HRA 1998
Interferes with sovereignty as appeal can now go to the European court of human rights in Strasbourg.

HRA 1998
Sensible act that ensures laws are just and fair. Judges cannot use this act to strike down other laws, so parliament is still supreme.

Involvement in international organizations

UN NATO Commonwealth International treaties such as Kyoto Protocol 1999 Binds the successors.

Over-rule
Through an Act of Parliament, any law/treaty/devolution act etc. can be overturned and stuck down.

Decline of Parliament
Increasing use of referendums Steady growth of executive

Parliamentary sovereignty
Still survives through the will of the people, if they wanted and voted for constitutional change, parliament would answer, acting out its legitimate function in democracy. Perhaps with lib-dems in coalition this may happen.
