Michael Nash pays tribute to the 70 years-and-counting reign of Queen Elizabeth II, in this week’s NLJ

Nash, a law lecturer and judge of the Diocesan Tribunal of East Anglia, highlights some peculiarities of the unwritten constitution and traces some of the powers and privileges of the British sovereign back to their origins in European royalty.

He writes: ‘Queen Elizabeth II’s reign has not been without its controversies and scandals—Queen Victoria had her fair share and still came out on top.’
