The UK has identified nearly 4,000 EU laws and regulations which we are now “free from”. What have we done with these newfound freedoms?

The process of ‘sunsetting’ laws envisioned under the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill – introduced into the UK Parliament in autumn 2022 – has led to fears of significant legal uncertainty.

In a recent decision, the Federal Supreme Court (Bundesgerichtshof) had an opportunity to provide further guidance regarding the obligation of UK claimants to provide security for costs in German proceedings.

More uncertainty lies ahead for employers and employees ahead of a crucial Brexit deadline, writes KAREN HARVIE.

Mired in politicking, the Brexit Freedoms Bill that will ‘move us away from outdated EU laws’ has still to be published. What lawyers are confronted with at present is an elaborate game of charades.

The government’s attack on the Human Rights Act is a betrayal of those Conservatives who helped create it.

The London bureau chief for Germany’s public broadcaster reflects on Britain’s government.

One welcome feature of this week’s Supreme Court decision on the prorogation issue was that it was openly and unapologetically a “constitutional” judgment.

Legal expert David Allen Green explained to James O'Brien why the government lost their court case on prorogation - and the reason why it happened is very revealing.

Regardless of a deal or no-deal Brexit, the current political uncertainties are challenging the UK's position as the premier location for resolving disputes. Commercial courts have already opened in Paris and Amsterdam, with proceedings conducted entirely in English and expressly aimed at competing with the UK.

The EU referendum was won based on a corrupt campaign, but the courts can't void the result because the referendum only advisory, according to the barrister who took the government to court.

The Institute for Government warns that crucial laws needed for post-Brexit will not be in place. MPs must summon courage.
