The book deals with the Australian Constitution from a citizen’s point of view, on the basis that the Constitution is the most important document in everyone’s life. It is the vehicle which allows the Government to make all the laws that control our society. As such, it needs to be understood by ordinary people. The Australian Constitution is still one part of a nine part Act of the British Parliament, and that makes a mockery of anyone trying to claim that Australia is a sovereign independent nation.It also provides a look at the history of the Constitution and the ongoing farcical legal and political attempts over the past 94 years, to make Australia look independent while still retaining this Act of the British Parliament as our Constitution.
