On one level, the UK’s sovereign law making powers, centred on its Parliament, are challenged by its membership of the European Union, as the UK is constrained in its actions by the agreements it has entered into and laws made under the EU Treaties. These laws have primacy over the laws of the member states. However, this pooling of sovereignty, and restriction on Parliament’s powers has been voluntarily entered into by the UK. Indeed, parliamentary sovereignty is seen still to apply as it is an Act of Parliament that gives EU law its force in the UK. Parliament could revoke that law – though that would leave the UK in breach of the terms of EU membership So that means we can’t make our own laws without breaching the terms of our EU Membership? Yes?
