A new essay will review English constitutional law and the notion of an unwritten constitution. King John's Magna carta is a constitution. It was apparently adopted by parliament and never repealed. A.V. Dicey wrote several essays discussing an unwritten constitution but the Magna Carta is considered a written, governing document. The peace that stems from it is evident. The constitution is stable and certain. Halsbury's Laws Vol. 44  cites MC 1215 as a Constitutional Act.   It was confirmed in writing by the House of Lords Records  Office in 2003 and also more recently.
