Abstract

Since the election last May, the coalition government has pursued a wide-ranging programme of constitutional reforms, many of which were promised by the previous Labour government. Stuart Wilks-Heeg of Democratic Audit discusses new findings that democratic inequalities have widened across the board since the 1990s and argues that the current government shows no signs of addressing them.
