There is a UK version of the Bill of Rights which was established about a hundred years before the US Constitution.
The English Bill of Rights is an act that the Parliament of England passed on December 16, 1689. The Bill creates separation of powers, limits the powers of the king and queen, enhances the democratic election and bolsters freedom of speech.

“The English Bill of Rights is an act that the Parliament “
Thus giving it the strength of whatever the character of parliament is at any given moment.

Say what you will, Robinson is a dead man walking in England. More than likely from the English, too.

IF they can throw Tommy Robinson in jail for the crime of 'speaking his thoughts' then their 'Bill of Rights' needs to be updated.
OUR 'elites' would NOT allow a Bill of Rights if it could be voted on today...

Exactly. Where do the ignoramuses who claim the UK has no constitution and Bill of Rights think that our framers got the idea for the same? The trouble with the UK is that a critical mass of leftist judges took power and redefined it as a "living document" which could be twisted and interpreted to mean whatever they thought was fashionable at the moment.
Sound familiar?
