Dictatorship Constitution is going to defeat itself.
Topher Fair
Fake internet lawyers have produced an unholy abomination called the UK Constitution.
Do you think that people are going to believe in and follow your law when it is worded in an unnecessarily complex and pompous way? You remember what happened last time we had a load of these right? Nobody paid any attention to them.
What is wrong with having something which is clear, concise, easy to change or add things to? A few edits down the line this is going to be a complete mess, just like the last lot of pretend laws.
Well, I am also a former MoLA like these guys so of course I should enjoy equal status in these matters
😉Only you could fecking understand the stuff I wrote and nobody came back the month after with "wtf how do I even do this?".
Here is how it should be:
Meaningless and obvious crap is crossed out in red, rewrites are in blue. Click the link below each image to zoom in.
This took me 10 minutes by the way so please no flaming of minor omissions or spelling errors, if I spent more time on it I could craft a masterpiece and will do so if requested. See it as a preview...
#1 How much space do you really need to outline how a nomination, discussion and vote works? Let's triple it:

#2 Everything is the same but we technically have a Dictator for MTO security. Now lets write up how impeachment already works a few times:

#3 If the Dictator breaks the law we replace him. Now let's add a dozen long words to make it sound more important:

Seriously I'm not trying to do you down guys, I'm trying to help. Legisbating over this and making it as inaccessible as possible to most people is going to do the complete opposite of what you want and bring the system down quicker.
Yeah people won't change your precious laws and will need your "expert" help to carry them out, guaranteeing easy Government spots for months to come. But when push comes to shove they won't actually follow these laws and just follow common sense.

Anything constructive to say?
I know I've laced this with my usual style, but at it's heart we have some strong constructive criticism of your work.
we?
I worked with Goku on this one.
I think Goku has lost it
No, he just found me ❤
you cray cray

Yeah, it could be a teeny bit clearer, but on the other hand, Apples crafts his writing like a god.
...of madness. It ain't helping anyone but himself.
Anyway, nice article.
Isn't the last word written backwards?
This article was brought to you by The Plain English Campaign.
As Englishmen we have to concatenate our words in intricate fashion, just as foreigners anticipate...
I can actually see what you're getting at here.
This must be embarrassing for Apples.
"Well, I am also a former MoLA"
AH HA! You are still Goku and didn't sell your account!

Horice 😉
There once was an odd fellow called Goku,
Who lived with a chappie also named Goku
Absolutely not the same person I assure you,
This heinious allegation is completely untrue!
So please be nice to Him, Himself and Goku.
Horice 😉
Why is it that Horice is SO MUCH MORE FUN than Goku/Una?
Horice for a Life Peerage!
That's like two people's worth of entertainment!
Well Goku you have really surprised me, this article seems to make sense, It's late so expect I misread it.
"Legisbating"
Great article what a good chap.
