A Constitutional Revolution in Britain?

Read the article at the following link:  Revolution

Be prepared to answer questions and discuss on Tuesday

Group 1 - define devolution - Has Labour succeeded in its reforms to share power? How?
Group 2 - Has Labour been successful in providing for an elected mayor in London?  What was the inspiration for this?
Group 3 - How has the House of Lords changed under New Labour?
Group 4 - Has Britain incorporated all of the Human Rights of the European Convention it has sought too?
Group 5 - Is Britain as secretive now as it was in 97' or has a freedom of information Act increased transparency?
Group 6 - What electoral reforms has New Labour brought up?  Have they been successful?

When is New Labour likely to get serious about election reform at the parliamentary level?
