Our Constitution is under  construction, so, in the interim we have adopted the:

‘Declaration of right’      Maxims in LAW

No foreign prince, person, prelate, state, or potentate hath, or ought to have, any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical or spiritual, within this realm.

Other constitutional rights given by these contracts -

   * The right to bear arms

   * The right to petition the Sovereign

   * Free men cannot be imprisoned without cause

   * The Government cannot arrest any man because he disagrees with the Government’s        policies

   * Habeas corpus is not to be denied

   * No person will be compelled to make loans to the King, and there will be no tax        without the approval of Parliament

   * Soldiers and sailors will not be billeted on civilians

   * Government will not impose martial law during peacetime

The right to bear arms gives every person the right to self defence using reasonable force, including deadly force if appropriate. Using tragic events as an excuse to remove that right has historically been the work of governments with good reason to fear their people - governments intent on some kind of future totalitarian control of their populations.
