Professor Conor Gearty talks to Paul Evans, Clerk of the Journals to discuss Parliament. Why do we have two chambers? How did we get the House of Lords? Why is the Monarch not allowed in the House of Commons? Is Parliament still sovereign?

All these issues form part of the Constitution UK project – an open internet forum to share ideas, debate topics and help shape new ways of thinking. Join the debate by visiting https://constitutionuk.com and sharing your ideas.
